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 do the 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)
- Comfort heating for industrial buildings and installations
- Freeze protection for equipment or components
- Drying or curing processes
- Canadian Standards Association (CSA) for use in Class I, Division 1 & 2, Group D hazardous locations
- Factory Mutual (FM) for use in Class I, Division 1, Group D hazardous locations. Temperature code T2C at an ambient temperature of 40°C (104°F)
