Infra-red Heating

Infra-Red Heating For Livestock, Panel beating & Industrial Drying.

Types of Infra-Red Heating & how they work:

Infra-Red heating works on the same principle as the suns rays but without the harmful UV component. Infra-Red heating is split into 3 main categories - Short Wave, Medium Wave & Long Wave. Basically put short wave IR heats the object under its direct beam, Medium wave heats the object under its direct beam & increases the environments ambient temperature through convection & long wave heats the environment by raising the ambient temperature which in turn heats whatever objects the warm air comes into contact with.


Advantages:

  • Heat can be focused / directed / aimed at exact object or person needing heating. No loss of hot air drifting to ceiling or being blown away.
  • Cost Effective - Most of energy converted to heat is absorbed & used on exactly what it was meant for. No need to heat a whole area when only small object or person in area requires heat.
  • Instant Heat - No warm up period for short wave so reduces running times therefore reducing electricity bill.
  • Safe & Stable - No open flames or gases, no noise or smell & it's a natural heat so oxygen is not affected, hence air doesn't dry out.
  • Health Benefits - Known to help with arthritis & stimulate blood flow in humans & animals alike, aiding there comfort or recovery.
  • Easy to install & no or low maintenance - Generally need a few screws & a plug point to switch ON & OFF.

Areas of use:

  • Keeping Livestock Warm - For rearing chickens, ducks, ostriches, pigs. Used in kennels for cats & dogs.
  • Keeping People Warm - At work stations, outside eating area's, canteens, loading bays, warehouses, porches etc.
  • Drying of Paints & Lacquers - Handheld & mobile shortwave heaters & ceramic medium wave heaters for Panel Beaters, Furniture Manufactures & Engineering works.
  • General Drying, Softening & Heating - Banks of heaters can be used to dry tobacco, printing inks, resin composites etc and for softening glues, pastes etc.
