Installation
Keep in mind that the convector is designed to be used indoors and wall mounted.

Do NOT install the convector:

1. immediately below an electrical socket or power connection box.
2. in “Zone 1” for bathrooms.
3. in “Zone 2” if the control card can be accessed by a person in a shower/bathtub. When installing the convector, the safety distances must be followed.

Install as follows: 

• Select the location and mark up its three points for drilling, then drill using an Ø 6 mm drill bit at the marked places on the wall. (Fig. 1). As an aid, use the prepared holes in the packaging, marked + (Fig. 2).
  
  
• Select the position on the wall according to the dimensions stated in Figure 1. Open the box and place it against the wall (Fig. 3). Then transfer the marked holes to the wall.
  
• Insert plastic plugs into the holes or other applicable fastening devices. (Fig. 4)
  
• Screw in the screws and let them protrude about 5 mm. (Fig. 4)
• To attach the unit: move the convector to the left (1) and downwards (2), so that the screws end up in the top position. (Fig. 5).
  

Wet rooms

In wet rooms, the convector must be installed in accordance with EU directives and national regulations.*  enclosures IEC60364-7-701.

If the convector is to be used in wet rooms, the following installation requirements must be followed:

The convector has IP24 protection (protection against water droplets) and can therefore be installed in “Zone 2” (see Fig. 6). The distance between the control panel and the water source must be at least 1 metre, in order to avoid the risk of the control panel (thermostat) being reached by a person who is in a shower/bathtub. If you do not feel confident about the installation, it is recommended that an authorised electrician is consulted.

If the above instructions cannot be implemented, it is recommended the appliance is installed in “Zone 3”.

In wet rooms, the power source must be installed at a height of at least 25 cm above the floor

* EU electrical directives and regulations for special installations and workplaces including bathrooms, shower

This is Wallflex 500

Wallflex 500 is a thermostat that is equipped with a 1.8″ TFT colour display and capacitive touch surfaces for easy and clear navigation. It has several energy saving programs with individually adjustable times and temperatures. The adaptive function means that the thermostat collects data from the time it is started and uses this to calculate when to switch on. A PI controller keeps temperature fluctuations to a minimum, which gives an even heat.

It includes a ventilation function that switches off the heat for 15 minutes if it detects that the temperature drops by more than three degrees in less than one minute.

Wallflex 500 is WiFi-ready. By purchasing the EB-Connect WiFi accessory, you can easily control the heat with our app Ebeco Connect or via the open API. The WiFi module is available at your nearest retailer. The app can be downloaded from Google Play and the App Store.

Getting started
Wallflex 500 has a built-in start-up guide that takes you through each step in a simple way. When commissioning the convector for the first time, the system will guide you through the most common and important settings that are required.

Cleaning
It is mandatory to first switch off the appliance and, if possible, disconnect it from the power socket before cleaning. You should then wait until the convector has cooled down in the disconnected position. Clean the appliance and its ventilation openings with a damp cloth, vacuum cleaner or brush. In order not to damage the coating, solvents, thin or hard abrasive products should never be used when cleaning. Never immerse the appliance in water as this poses a risk to your life due to electric shock.
