Dayton High-Intensity Heaters
®
Description
Dayton high-intensity heaters become highly efficient generators
of infrared radiation by heating a ceramic refractory material to
incandescence. The principal operation is to pass a gas-air mixture
through a perforated ceramic refractory, and ignite it on the refractory
surface. This causes the ceramic material to be heated to approximately
1780°F and generate large amounts of infrared radiation that may be
directed anywhere heat is desired. Infrared radiation heats people and
objects it strikes and not the intervening air. Included is a direct spark
ignition system, manifold pressure tap, porous ceramic grids, a polished
aluminum reflector and a chain set for hanging the heater. Typical
applications are loading docks, warehouses, service garages, factories,
aircraft hangars, etc.
