Discuss How do I wire this according to diagram? in the Electric Underfloor Heating Wiring area at ElectriciansForums.net

Good spot. The OP's heater has 'GRM' for 'GPM' and 'FIOW' for 'FLOW' suggesting the label is also an OCR copy. And they can't even be bothered to imitate the CE mark, just put the letters 'CE' on there.

I was suspicious from the moment I saw 'FireWire'.
 
The manufacturer Is nowhere to be found online or otherwise and local electricians are not very helpful since they learn the tarde from their families. Im open to any suggestions guys.

Thanks.
 
Good spot on the counterfeit issue.

I certainly don't think I'd be sitting in a pool heated by that unless it had been given a VERY thorough check over by someone qualified to do so.
 
The original design of this product is made in a single phase 220V version with two terminals L & N, and also a 3 phase version with three L terminals and no Neutral connection.
The design you have appears to be a Chinese copy, with different components, with no legitimate safety approvals or authority to sell in countries requiring such.
The instructions with your product describe how to connect it to a 220V supply with a Line and Neutral connection (ie one wire at 220V and the other roughly at ground potential). You don't appear to have such a supply available.
The photo you provide of the connections throws serious doubt over the ability of the Neutral wiring to withstand the alleged 50A load current.

I don't think any responsible person on this forum will suggest you use it, or give you help remotely, given the risks it might pose.

Sorry to be so blunt, but just trying to explain why we are not leaping to help. I've spent the last couple of decades dealing with product standards and safety approvals of electrical and electronic products. You cannot just stare at product, or indeed just test it, and pronounce it safe for all users. It's a complicated business, and to be frank I don't have any reason to trust the safety of thing you have.

You are of course free to ignore the comments you receive here, but they are made with the best of intentions.
