The Powrmatic A-Range of high powered heaters have
been designed and manufactured at the highest standard
to provide radiant heat to commercial and industrial
environments at high level and are available in heat
outputs of 1kW to 18kW.
The A-Range boasts all of the performance benefits
associated with full quartz shortwave technology
while providing an economic solution for industrial
and commercial heating requirements. It offers all the
convenience of electricity together with very low running
costs when compared to other forms of heating.
The range of quartz infrared heaters to suit any
application requiring a reliable heating solution including
commercial, domestic, outdoor and industrial heating
with reliability, durability and virtually maintenance free
benefits.
Profile Design
Use of dedicated extruded aluminium profile. This helps
the powerful heaters stay cool during running time. The
aluminium profile is lightweight and eliminates rusting
and discoloration.
Unique designed integral aluminium heat sinks
additionally help keep the heater cool and improve
reliability compared with inferior alternatives on the
market.
Shortwave Technology
full shortwave technology is noiseless and contributes
to no atmospheric pollution and no movement of dust
or other particles, which can be important in many
environments.
Parabolic Reflectors
The unique deep, smooth parabolic reflectors produced
using high grade anodised aluminium provides superior
consistent reflectivity through 100% of the reflector. This
provides intense uniformed heat coverage across a larger
area. The 0.8mm thick reflector effortlessly projects
heat forwards and in turn provides unbeatable heat
performance.
Durability
hard wearing / durable, reliable and designed to stand
hours of consistent commercial / industrial use.
It has been engineered to dissipate heat in order to keep
the body running cool which in turn increases life of the
product and its components.
Installation Flexibility
dedicated bracketry provide flexibility when installing on
side walls or overhead. also the swivel bracket (selected
models) offer directional heat where required which
makes the Apollo an easy to install flexible heating
solution.
Energy Saving Controls
compatible with energy saving controllers which
provides both controllability of heat output and energy
saving benefits to all models including the three phase
configuration which can be variably controlled.
IMPORTANT
