Infrared Technology
- Infrared is smart. It heats only what needs to be heated: personnel or equipment within a facility, not the surrounding air
- Infrared is direct. It takes less time and energy to dothe job
- Infrared is versatile. It handles a large variety of process and space heating applications
- Infrared is environmentally friendly. It helps surpass today's ever-tightening standards
- Infrared radiation is a form of electromagnetic energy that is generated by the vibration and rotation of atoms and molecules within all objects with temperatures above absolute zero (0°Kelvin; -273°C; or -459°F). Electromagnetic energy, which travels at the speed of light, is comprised of waves that can be measured both electrically and magnetically
- Certifications: The "G" Series catalytic pad is certified by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and Factory Mutual (FM) and (European standards) for non-hazardous area applications.
