Archer 700 Gas Log Fire
700 SERIES
FREE STANDING FLAT FRONT MODEL
FS 700
The Freestanding Model FS700 is a 30 Mj Twin burner Model with a combustion efficiency of 92% and a 5.7 Star Energy Rating. It can heat up to 180 square metres (18 squares)* and incorporates features such as:
Operating and Safety Features
Computer Controlled Safety and Efficiency Hot Surface Ignition (H.S.I.) Module
The Archer’s solid state electronic computer control system, gives you safety, convenience and efficiency not seen in Australia before. To start with the Archer electronic solid state module controls every function and operating feature of the heater for safe and efficient operation.
During operation the independent twin H.S.I. ignition system controls the ignition cycle of each burner automatically to ensure trouble free automatic ignition (no pilot light or troublesome piezo ignition) for added reliability, safety and lower gas bills.
During operation the remote flame sensors constantly monitor the status of the flame for added safety. Archer’s independent (H.S.I.) ignition system lets you select from 3 burner settings. Low, medium and high burn at the touch of a button from easy accessible controls for selection of your own comfort level and lowest operating cost.
Years of painstaking laboratory testing coupled with extensive in field trials have resulted in a truly reliable ignition system. Prior to start up of your heater it automatically purges any un-burnt gas prior to ignition for added safety.
The 3 speed fan which is automatically linked to each burner setting has been customised for optimum comfort and efficiency. The fan in the heater will not start operating until the heater has sufficiently warmed up. When you turn your heater off the fan will keep pushing warm air until all the built up heat in the heater has been extracted. All your heaters operating modes can be viewed on the display monitor located in the front panel.
Additional safety features such as flame failure safety, overheating safety, automatic shutdown if power or gas fails and fan start/stop protection are all built into the Archer solid state electronic module for customising your heater for added safety, optimum comfort and efficiency to give you the comfort of feeling safe in your home.
Zero Clearance Installation
Another direct installation and safety feature derived from the Archer’s revolutionary heat exchange system, is the zero clearance temperature achieved on the top, back and sides only of the heater, which allows the heater to be installed safely against combustible materials. The safety screen fitted to the large neo ceramic door glass will be welcoming news for parents with small children.
Automatic Humidifier Standard
Most gas heaters dry out the air in the room. Remember the bowls of water in front of the old gas heaters? The Archer has ingeniously solved this problem with an automatic humidifier. Gas contains moisture which is normally expelled out the flue or chimney after combustion but the Archer is so efficient by taking 92% of the heat out of the burnt gases that the moisture drops out and condenses in the back of the heater.
This water is collected in a tank which is then pumped up to a stainless steel holding tank where it evaporates in the stream of hot air, which is blowing into your home. Air humidity is automatically restored. This feature is especially important for those with delicate throats or mild breathing difficulties.
NOTE: The amount of condensate build up depends on outside temperature, humidity levels, length of flue and heat settings. Long single vertical flue will cause the automatic humidifier to activate more often compared to short horizontal coaxial or single flue installations.
Low cost versatile installation
The Archer Gas Log Space Heater technology eliminates costs and flexibility on installations when compared to the installation of most other gas heaters, which require expensive and unsightly flue installations.
The Archer’s revolutionary plastic power flue and plastic 40mm ∅ PVC single flue system eliminates those costly installations and is ideal for high rise apartments, external and internal wall applications anywhere in your home and ideally can be used as a replacement for existing gas or oil space heaters.
The Archer Gas Log Space Heater due to its high efficiency with 92% heat extracted from Archer’s revolutionary heat exchanger ensures that surface temperatures of the heater are kept extremely low to allow zero clearance installations without the added cost of installing a zero clearance box, which allows you to create your own decorative fireplace at the lowest cost.
The PVC co-axial flue system will give you the added benefit of using external combustion air allowing the air in your home to remain fresh. Whilst the 40mm PVC single flue system gives you unlimited installation advantages.
Discover how the Archer Gas Log Space Heater can be installed in your choice of location of existing masonry fireplace, external and internal wall applications, high rise apartments and created zero clearance fireplaces all due to the small bore PVC co-axial or single flue system available only with an Archer heater.
Revolutionary Patented Triple Heat Exchanger
International Patent No PCT/AU2007/0011459
The secret of the Archer revolutionary 5.4 – 5.9 energy star performance is the patented triple heat exchanger that puts more heat into your home and money in your pocket instead of up the chimney. The Archer Gas Log Space Heater has shattered the boundaries of acceptable product design.
The basis of the incredible leap in high heat output and high efficiency achieved by the Archer Gas Log Fire is the revolutionary heat exchange system which extracts 92% + heat from the incoming gas which is directly transferred into your home.
The Archer Gas Log Fire does not only feature a burning system that looks realistic, but also incorporates a combustion process which delivers high efficiency and high heat output. (Beauty – Efficiency – Heat)
Aurora after engaging in an extensive research and development program of many years have developed an innovative high efficiency heat exchange system which has amazed the industry and has achieved the highest appraisal from independent heating authorities for its innovative design and efficiency.
The Archer’s high efficiency 3 stage high performance heat exchange system, allows for the heat of the incoming combustible gases to be squeezed to 55°C before they enter the flue resulting in total combustion, to ensure that every megajoule of gas input energy available is put to work for heating the home.
This type of process of achieving high performance heat output has to date not been achieved by any other similar appliance, but with an Archer heater it is reality and you get the benefit.
Heater Comparison
The Mj of a heater should not be used for comparing the product’s heat output and capacity. The Kw heat output and efficient heat transfer is the only true method of product comparison.
Example: A 30 Mj heater with a 5.7 Energy Star rating has a larger heat output than a 30 Mj 3 star energy reated heater.
