Infrared Heaters are commonly used in infrared modules (or emitter banks) combining several heaters to achieve larger heated areas. Infrared heaters use a reflective shield to direct radiant heat onto a heated surface. Infrared flat panel heaters are used to heat objects via radiant heat transfer. Infrared heater elements are replacement heater elements used with radiant flat panel heaters and radiant reflective heaters.
Operations
Maximum operating temperature is the maximum temperature that the sheath covering the heater may reach. The maximum sheath temperature does not represent the maximum temperature that a heated substance may reach. Maximum AC voltage represents the maximum AC voltage the heater can use. Watts represents the available wattage available from the heater. Maximum watt density is the amount of wattage per square inch that the heater is capable of delivering. Watt density is calculated by dividing the available wattage by the heated area. Theoretically, the efficiency of an infrared heater is 100% as it converts nearly all electrical energy into heat in the filament.
Types
Propane Infrared Heaters
Propane Infrared Heaters save on home heating costs. Easy, economical installation with no vent or chimney required. Radiant heaters heat objects in the room before heating the air. Extremely safe heaters feature safety pilot with complete automatic shutdown capability. If oxygen levels fall below safe levels, oxygen depletion sensor shuts off gas flow. Matchless pushbutton starter. Heater is free standing or can be mounted on wall. Product to be used in accordance with state and local ordinances, regulations and codes
Electric Infrared Heaters
Electric Infrared heaters provide safe, efficient electric infrared heat without fumes, vapors, or gases, consuming up to 50% less energy than conventional forced air systems.They feature gold anodized aluminum reflectors for maximum reflectivity and precision heat patterns.
Uses: Farm buildings, garages, factories, and store rooms.
Natural Gas Infrared Heaters
- Efficient Gas Infrared Heat - Directly heats people and objects which in turn heats surrounding air to desired temperature
- Economical - No electricity required. Heats during power outages.
- Convenient - Easy to operate and install. All necessary brackets and hardware included.
- Quiet, Clean, Odor-free Operation
- Instant Heat - Includes adjustable thermostat for individually controlled warmth.
