FHW fan heater with water coil
FHW is a new series of fan hea-
ters with water coil, designed for
heating of premises such as pro-
duction halls, warehouses and
workshops. Due to the low noise
level it is also suitable for shops,
shopping centres and meeting
halls.
The air is passed through the hot
water coil in such a way that the
sound level can be as low as 35 dB[A]
(for FHW 12).
The fan heater consists of an axial
fan with integrated motor and water
coil, mounted in a corrosion-proof
hot-dip galvanised sheet steel casing.
All models have individually adjust-
able linear grilles to lead the air flow
in the desired direction.
The fan heater can be mounted on
the wall or the ceiling and the water

connection can be on either the left
or the right hand side. The air
stream can be regulated in multiple
steps.
The heating can be combined with
ventilation by using a mixing unit for
outside air or inside re-circulation. In
addition there are several other
accessories available.
The fan heaters come in four different sizes:
1. FHW12 air flow 0.51 m3/s, power 17 kW
2. FHW22 air flow 0.91 m3/s, power 30 kW
3. FHW32 air flow 1.72 m3/s, power 50 kW
4. FHW33 air flow 1.59 m3/s, power 65 kW
(by water temp 80/60°C, air temp 15°C, step 3)
Before starting to develop the new series of fan
heaters with water coil, Systemair made an extensi-
ve research among users of fan heaters.
From this research we established
that there are three main require-
ments for fan heaters:
• Low noise
• Attractive design
• Easy maintenance
It is with these requirements in mind
that Systemair has developed its new
range of FHW fan heaters.
Low noise level
The FHW is today the most quieltly
running fan heater with water coil on
the market. The sound level of the
FHW 12 can be as low as 35 dB(A).
This represents the same sound as the
background noise in a normal office,
which means that these heaters now
also can be used in shops and meet-
ing halls.
The product has been tested in the
Systemair Research and Development
Centre in Sweden, one of the most
comprehensive sound laboratories in
Europe and certified according to
AMCA regulations for test laborato-
ries.
ventilation products. FHW offers
heating, ventilation and filtering of
air, from outside or for inside circu-
lation. Flexible heating and ventila-
tion solutions can be made together

Completing the Systemair range
The Systemair group is today one of
Europe's most significant suppliers
of high quality heating products,
exporting to more than 50 countries
around the world.
The FHW fan heaters complete
the Systemair range of heating and

Design
The function is of course the most
important issue for any heating
equipment for industrial applications.
However, the design features grow
more important as the low noise
level makes it possible to use the
product in more aestetically con-
scious applications. With soft shapes
and discrete use of colours, these
heaters will fit into most surround-
ings.

Maintenance
The FHW heaters are easy to main-
tain as the top and the bottom sec-
tions can be opened. A normal
accessory is a filter placed between
the water coil and the fan. The filter
can easily be removed for cleaning.

Positioning, mounting and installing
Generally about mounting FHW
Fan heaters FHW can be mounted at a wall for horizontal
air distribution, or on the ceiling for vertical air distribu-
tion.
FHW can be mounted with the pipes either to the left or
to the right hand side. They must however, not be con-
nected pointing upwards or downwards.
Accessories and FHW are put together with screws or
guides and then fitted to a wall or the ceiling with a suit-
able fastening device.

Connection from the left

Connection the heating coil

The pipes can be connected on either side of FHW.
Heating coil with aluminium fins (fin distance 2 mm) and
copper pipes. Smooth pipe connections, for soldering or
clamp ring pipe connection.
The air valve should be connected on a high point in the
pipe system. Air and draining valves are not included in the
heating coil. For correct inlet and outlet dimensions of the
heating coil, see page 8.
FHW units that are likely to be exposed to air tempera-
tures below zero, for example when a mixing cabinet is
used, should be equipped with external automatic frost
protection to ensure that the heating coil is not damaged
by frost. Contact your local installer for a frost protection
installation.

Connection from the right

Electrical installation
The appliance should be preceded by a triple pole switch
with at least 3 mm breaking gap.
The following applies to FHW 12 and 22 only: The fan
motor is connected via a cable gland in the casing, to a ter-
minal box inside the unit. Bottom and top lids are supplied
with hinges and are easily opened after loosening a set of
screws.
On the side of the unit there are knock-outs, 2 pcs ø 20
mm. See wiring diagrams on pages 18-19.
The following applies to FHW 32 and 33 only: The fan
motor is connected directly to the terminal box which is
located on the motor and easily accessible from the outside
of the unit. When a mixing cabinet or a filter section is
used, holes must be made in the casing for connection
cables.

RT 0-30
Electronic room thermostat for indoor
wall mounting. RT 0-30 has an internal
sensor but an external sensor such as the
TG-K330 or TG-R630 can be connect-
ed. The thermostat has an external dial
for setting a temperature between 0 and
30°C – RT 0-30 demands power supply.

Thermostats
and regulations
Thermostats are used for opening
and closing water valves and to
start and stop fans.
REX2000
Electronic 7 day timer for switching
between e.g. day/night time or weekend
settings. The REX2000 can be connect-
ed to two RT 0-30 thermostats, see
wiring diagram page 19 for temperature
control.
WxHxD [mm]: 80x125x67. IP30
Choosing an electronic vs. a
capillary thermostat
Both SR121 and RT0-30 control the
temperature in one step. The difference
between them is that the RT0-30 only
works when connected to a 230V power
source while the capillary needs no extra
supply. Also the IP-class of the electronic
thermostat is lower than for the SR121
which means it often isn’t suitable for
installing in warehouses and more “dirty”
environments.
Air flow and
temperature regulation
FHWR3A
FHWR3A has a 3-step switch for the air
flow, and a change-over switch for man-
ual/auto operation. Only to be used for
regulating FHW12 and FHW22 heaters.
Can controls up to 6 units.
WxHxD [mm]: 120x160x100. IP44
Manual: Desired airflow is set with the
3-step switch. The thermostat regulates
the heat on/off. (For higher tempera-
tures decrease the fan speed).
Auto: The thermostat regulates the air-
flow in 2 steps and the heat on/off. The
3-step switch is preset to position 1, 2 or
3 to limit the highest speed. When there
is no need for heat, the fan is shut off
and the valve actuator FHWACT is
closed. When heat is needed the valve
actuator opens the water flow and starts
the fan at low speed. If the room tem-
perature continues to drop, the fan speed
will increase to the preset value. (If the
3-step switch is preset to position 1 the
fan will run on low speed only. If posi-
tion 3 is preset, the fan will speed up
from low to high.)
FHWR3, 3-step airflow switch
Only for FHW12 and FHW22.
3-step switch for FHW12 and FHW22
only. Can control up to 6 units.
To control the heat, a suitable thermo-
stat (see page 16) and a set of valves or
2-way valve (FHW2RV20/25) + valve
actuator (FHWACT) are needed (see
page 18).
WxHxD [mm]: 80x160x80. IP44.
RE3, 5-step airflow switch
Manual five-step transformer for regu-
lating the airflow for one FHW32 or
FHW33 only. The airflow is controlled
in 5 steps. To control the heat, a suitable
thermostat (see page 16) and a set of
valves or 2-way valve (FHW2RV20/25)
+ valve actuator (FHWACT) must be
added (see page 18).
WxHxD [mm]: 105x200x105. IP54
Max load 3A
RE7, 5-step airflow switch
Manual five-step transformer for regu-
lating the airflow of up to two units of
FHW32 or FHW33. The airflow is con-
trolled in 5 steps. To control the heat, a
suitable thermostat (see page 15) and a
set of valves or 2-way valve
(FHW2RV20/25) + valve actuator
(FHWACT) must be added (see page
18).
