Panel heaters: heating every corner
In a panel heater which is also called as radiant panel heater, heat is generated by exchange of radiant heat, in form of infrared waves. The unit is very easy to install as its light weighted and one can mount it any direction to radiate heat.
Uses:
Panel heaters use is wide and extensive. They are used in variety of industrial applications such as drying, curing, water evaporation, space heating, food processing and material preparation. They have a very thin body type and one can also use them in bathrooms or anywhere where a large heating system is not possible to fit. They come in handy for sterilization process as some of their variety is available made up of stainless steel.
Panel heaters features:
Panel heaters are designed to heat with infrared wave’s large surface area of stainless steel, quartz cloth or ceramic. Their use with quartz cloth is one of the most common types. With space heaters, panel heaters heat large surface area so there are very less chances of uneven heating. Maintaining constant temperature with space heaters ensures the unit assembly does not touch extreme temperatures. It reduces chances of fire by a several margin in comparison with other type heaters.
Benefits:
Unlike other type of heaters one can expect panel heaters to give 100% output throughout product’s age because panel material in this type of heaters absorb almost 80% of energy and thus also benefit its consumers by less absorption of energy. To prevent heat loss they are well insulated from back side. One can modify them and load them with new features such as resistance from corrosion as they are made up of stainless steel, explosion proof and overheat protection are a part of its modification. One can easily mount them in house to use as space heaters by modification. Panel heaters does not contain reflective panel, which requires daily cleaning time so it’s also an advantage of panel heaters.
Safety tips:
One should never risk by installing panel heaters in areas where combustible materials are nearby, or there is no proper ventilation in house for explosive gases. One must consider that it doesn’t come in contact with flammable gases or vapors as heat radiated from it is real hot. If you live in countries where humidity and moisture levels is much higher than one must install panel heaters with proper grounding, as they are not manufactured water proof.
Electrical requirements:
Before buying we recommend to check energy ratings, panel heaters are available in market in different sizes and their size decides the power they will require. Some small panel heaters require about 110 volt and normal size panel heaters may require about 240 volt power.
