Information about the device
Device description
The device is used to quickly generate instant heat.
The device is based on the functional principle of heat
generation by infrared radiation, which is generated by a
halogen tube. The infrared radiation is passed on to the
surrounding surfaces as heat radiation. Persons or objects are
heated directly.
The heating level and the LED elements can be adjusted via
remote control or directly on the control panel.
• suitable for roofed and non-roofed outdoor use
• for ceiling installation
• silent operation
• no dust circulation (suitable for allergy sufferers)
