CQIR Quartz infra red heaters 1.3kW to 6kW

Product image





Applications

Radiant heat is an efficient way of heating large poorly insulated drafty buildings and for heating specific areas. Quartz infra red heaters are therefore well suited to warehouses, factories, loading areas, garages, sports halls and, as they are noiseless in operation, churches. Quartz infra red heaters are also ideal for intermittent heating where instant response is required, they give full output within seconds of switch on. Proximity sensors can be used to ensure the heater is only on when the area is occupied. The exterior version is ideal for use on patios, inbeer gardens and exterior smoking areas.

Installation

The units must be mounted with the lamps horizontal and the back of the unit at a minimum of 30° to the horizontal. Minimum mounting dimensions must be observed. They should be connected with heat resistant cable to a suitably fused power supply via a 2 pole switched connection unit having a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles. Switchgear should be sized to take into account the high initial in rush current.

All Electrical connections should be made by a suitably qualified person in accordance with the latest edition of the IEE Requirements for Electrical Installation (BS 7671:2001)

Do NOT locate close to surfaces or materials that may present a risk of fire.

Control

Instant response allows easy efficient control of individual units or in zones for larger areas. PIR units of suitable current rating (CPIR) can be used to give heat when the area is occupied. Any air thermostats used should be positioned out of the direct line of heaters.

Selection

1) Determine the area to be heated (A mē) and the height of possible locations of the heaters.
2) Select the appropriate intensity (W w/mē) from the table. Take into account construction of building and activity levels.
3) Required installed load is W x A/1000 (kW)
4) Select heaters taking into account mounting height, spread of heat and area to be covered. The area should ideally be heated from two directions.
A greater number of units will give a more even heating effect.
Areas in 'shadow' will not be heated.
Higher mounted units are less noticeable but have lower intensity at floor level.
Gold low glare lamps give reduced visible light and increased heat .
