Electrical Connections

This blanket warmer requires a 10amp, 230V, 50Hz power supply. Use a dedicated outlet for the blanket warmer, and avoid using power boards or extension cords. Each blanket warmer is supplied with a standard 3-pin moulded plug for connection to the mains.

  • The blanket warmer is equipped with a 2.5m removable mains power lead featuring a three-pin plug and a right-angle female IEC plug. Ensure the unit is positioned at a reasonable distance from the power supply to avoid strain on the cable.
  • On the blanket warmer itself, there is a 10-amp male IEC socket for power connection.

 

Warning WARNINGS

  • The blanket warmer should be stored indoors at all times. Failure to adhere to this could cause significant drops in cabinet performance and damage to items stored inside.

  • Blanket warmers are not suitable for use with flammable solvents. They contain components that may act as an ignition source, posing a fire hazard.
  • The blanket warmer generates heat during operation. The inner liner of the cabinet may become hot to the touch. Exercise caution when handling to avoid burns.
  • When removing packaging, exercise caution when using knives to cut tape and cardboard to avoid damaging the blanket warmer.
