Infrared-Oilheater IRO 15
Powerful spot heating by radiant heat without air turbulence
The IRO 15 brings the heat directly to the point
As a 20 kW strong infrared oil heater, the IRO 15 generates effective radiant heat, which is not transported through the air but via light waves and heats objects and surfaces immediately.
Because there is no air circulation in this type of heating, no dust is stirred up - ideal for use in dusty rooms with large quantities of liquids or for drying paint and varnish.
Since the heat in infrared oil heating is not transported via the medium of air but via light waves, wind has no influence on the heat output, which is why the IRO 15 is also recommended for spot heating in draughty environments.
Benefit additionally from the fast heating effect of this device:
In contrast to air heaters, which heat the air only gradually, the heat radiation of the IRO 15 begins directly after switching on - without preheating costs and waiting time, 100% radiant heat is transferred from the heater to the illuminated object with almost no loss.
At the same time, this infrared oil heater not only heats particularly efficiently but also quietly, because the IRO 15 generates just half as much noise as a comparable direct oil heater fan!
Effective spot heating with light waves
Like other direct oil heaters, the IRO 15 can be fired with diesel, which is often cheaper than gas or electricity. Since this technology also releases combustion gases into the ambient air, the operating environment must be well ventilated. In contrast to direct heaters, however, the heat generated by the IRO 15 is not released directly into the air but is used to heat a radiant panel.
While the cooling fan cools the ceramic insulation chamber from the outside with ambient air drawn in, air is supplied to the burner via an integrated fan. This air is sprayed at high pressure through a nozzle into the combustion chamber with fuel drawn from the tank and burnt at maximum heat development. As a result, the radiating plate heats up in such a way that it emits directed IR radiant heat.
Using short infrared waves, the IRO 15 delivers effective heat immediately to where it is needed without air circulation. As with the warm rays of the sun, the infrared radiation of the IRO 15 heats illuminated bodies and objects directly and without thermal losses: only what is illuminated is heated, the air in between has no effect. Unlike the sun, however, the infrared radiation of the IRO 15 is not harmful to people, as it does not contain any UV waves.
In addition, the radiant heat reaches the radiated body from the heater without loss, which is why this technology can achieve an efficiency of almost 100%.
High radiant heat plus economical oil firing
The IRO 15 combines the process advantages of electric infrared heaters with the performance and economic mode of operation of directly fired oil heaters. The bottom line is that with the IRO 15, users have an ultra-powerful infrared heater with low operating costs and an impressive heating capacity of 20 kW.
This high thermal energy without disturbing air circulation enables you to use it in a variety of applications in well ventilated indoor or covered outdoor areas.
For example, machines or pipelines can be defrosted, frozen heating systems can be defrosted in an energy-saving manner, painting work or wall coatings can be dried and work areas can be heated in a targeted manner and completely draught-free. The infrared rays heat the affected areas directly and not the ambient air.
Possible applications:
- Targeted spot heating in well-ventilated rooms or storage areas
- Dust-free drying of walls, paintwork and varnish
- De-icing of machines and pipelines
- Drying and heating of buildings
Everything important about the infrared direct oil heater IRO 15 at a glance:
- The IRO 15 heats objects with its infrared radiation, but not the air
- The IRO 15 heats without air circulation and thus does not raise dust, for example
- The IRO 15 is suitable for use in well ventilated indoor and covered outdoor areas
- The IRO 15 generates 100 % heat output
- The IRO 15 emits the combustion exhaust gases together with the heating air directly into the room
- The IRO 15 is not suitable for closed rooms in which persons or animals are present
- The IRO 15 produces just half the noise of a comparable direct oil blower
- The IRO 15 cannot be used for drying buildings, as approx. 1.6 kg of water vapour per litre of fuel is produced during combustion
- The IRO 15 must not be used in rooms where there is a fire hazard due to the storage of combustible materials
Advantages for the practice:
- Effective radiant heat without air movement
- Quiet burner technology
- Robust and compact construction
- Thermostatically controlled
- LED display for room and target temperatures
- Heat insulated carrying handle
