Understanding the Sun-Spot Catalytic Heater
The catalytic heater is a type of heater that emits infrared heat without using any flame. This results in heat in the form of medium to long infrared waves. This output is evenly absorbed by a wide range of organic materials such as wood, plastic and metal.
A catalytic heater creates this heat using a chemical reaction from broken down molecules. A catalyst within the catalytic heater then causes a catalytic combustion. This occurs when a natural gas in the presence of oxygen creates carbon dioxide, water and heat.
Natural gas ignites at a substantially lower temperature, therefore no flame is involved or produced. Far infrared wave emitters are created, producing radiant heat. The heat produced from a catalytic heater has a significantly higher thermal efficiency when compared to conventional heating produced from a non-catalytic heater.
Sun-Spot Catalytic Flameless Combustion
Our products are flameless catalytic infrared heaters. The HT-100 and HT-200 are cost effective and and can force the drying or curing of any type of coating. Our flameless catalytic heaters produce extraordinary results. They are up to 80% more economical and 4x faster compared to hot air convection drying. Catalytic flameless combustion is 100% safe to use and a tested process.
The HT-100 and HT-200 models contain several features that allow you to customize the way you work and provide you with a great curing experience:
Easy to use Control Panel including the following features:
- Pyrometer (thermal camera)
