Dayton 5PV34 Hydronic Unit Heater
The Dayton 5PV34 is a suspended horizontal hydronic unit heater designed for wall or ceiling mounting. It delivers 2900 cfm of horizontal airflow for heating commercial or industrial spaces. The unit operates with either steam or water as the heating medium.
Build quality and connections
The cabinet measures 29 in high, 24 5/8 in wide and 13 3/4 in deep with an 18 in fan protected by a standard guard. Piping connects via 1 1/2 in threaded female NPT fittings. A header-type coil handles the heat transfer fluid.
Thermals and electricals
At 2 psi steam the heater outputs 204 000 BtuH; with 200 F water it provides 148 000 BtuH. The single-phase fan draws 4.5 A at 60 Hz and requires a flow rate of 14.9 gpm for rated performance.

Questions about this item
What does the 1 1/2 in threaded female NPT connection limit in practice?
The 1 1/2 in threaded female NPT connection sets the pipe size for steam or water supply and return lines. It caps the flow rate at 14.9 gpm and determines the 204,000 BtuH at 2 PSI steam and 148,000 BtuH at 200 F water output ratings.
What clearance does the 29 in high, 24 5/8 in wide, 13 3/4 in deep cabinet need for suspended mounting?
The unit measures 29 in high, 24 5/8 in wide and 13 3/4 in deep. Suspended horizontal mounting requires structural support for the full cabinet weight plus clearance for the 18 in fan diameter, standard guard, and 1 1/2 in NPT piping connections on the coil header.
How is the 1-phase 4.5 A fan wired at 60 Hz, and what step is often missed?
Wire the 1-phase fan to a 60 Hz supply rated for 4.5 A. The step often missed is verifying the motor rotation matches the horizontal airflow direction before securing the standard guard and commissioning the hydronic coil.
