Film heater - modern heating option
Wall film heater - infrared device created using the most modern technologies. Carbon thread - its foundation. It has properties that are widely used in many areas of science and technology.
In appearance the device is not easy to suspect its complex organizational structure. Outwardly, it resembles a picturesque modular picture or colorful paneltherefore, it is widely used by designers in the design of interiors of apartments or offices. The specifics of the heater circuit allows it to be installed in rooms with high humidity, the only condition that must be observed - the initial air temperature should not be below 400C below zero. Let's take a closer look at how it works.
Constructive scheme
The principle of operation is based on the possibility of any substance. radiate heat, it only needs infrared waves. A tube with carbon threads that are twisted into a spiral is the basis of the work. There are different numbers of such tubes, it depends on the power of the device. The basis is concluded in the aluminum case.
The heating element that generates heat is covered with a film with special properties. It is heat resistant and, in addition, has excellent electrical insulating qualities. The efficiency of the heater is largely determined by the uniform heating of the entire surface. The film itself can be represented by any colorful image that matches the style of the room and its color accents.
The heating base of the film heater is a very reliable element that can operate for more than 100 thousand hours.
During the installation process, it is necessary to connect the system to a power source, which is carried out from the central unit. As soon as food gets on the central element, it heats up and begins to radiate infrared waves up to 15 microns long. Rays falling on the surface of nearby objectswarm them to a depth of 3 centimeters. Heat is then transferred from the objects to the air (for more details on the action scheme, see the articleprinciple of operation of the heater with infrared radiation),
Merits
Without a doubt, a flexible wall heater is one of the most recent inventions in the field of heat transfer. Among its advantages are:
- Safety for humans - the surface is heated to a temperature not higher than 600C, therefore, it is impossible to get burned about it.
- The absence of the possibility of fire - the surface temperature allows you to install the heater next to various objects of the interior, including curtains and wooden objects.
- Efficiency - the area of the room, which is able to warm up one heater, reaches 3 meters in radius, while its weight does not reach even a kilogram.
- Environmental friendliness - carbon fiber, which is included in the device circuit, is widely used in medicine, therefore, the device’s action can be called not only harmless to the human body, but also to some extent useful.
- Efficiency - the heat from the device starts to come from the first minute after it is turned on,and since electricity is instantly converted to heat, the energy consumption of the device itself is several times lower than that of a conventional heater.
- Space saving.
- Safety for children due to the possibility of mounting higher human growth.
The disadvantages of the device
In addition to the above benefits, carbon heater has some drawbacks:
- The need to perform thermal insulation of the space before installing the heater.
- In order for the device to work, you need a source of electricity of a certain power.
- Flexible wall heater can not be painted, varnished or wallpaper, so in case of changing the color of the room or its design will have to change the heater.
- The device has a reflective surface, which certainly needs to be closed in order to avoid eye strain.
Popular manufacturers
Nicaten Manufacturer of devices with low power consumption. If you compare such a flexible wall heater with any other heater from another series (oil, convector), it turns out that the amount of electricity they consume, almost twice smaller.
The process of heat radiation begins in the first minutes after turning on the heater. And during the next half hour, the working temperature is fully reached.
Energy-saving drives installed in the device do not allow the system to cool down for 2 hours after shutdown. Devices Nikaten suitable for any premises, harmless to health and keep the humidity of the air at the required level.
Noirot. A distinctive feature of the devices of this manufacturer - a combination of properties infrared emitter and electric convector. The company pays special attention to maintaining the parameters of environmental friendliness and quality at the international level. Thanks to the monitoring system, each device is reliably protected from the negative influence of moisture and is safe during operation.
Ballu. Represents universal devices both for household use, and for industrial needs. Continuous improvement of their models is an essential attribute of the company's policy. Outdated models are always updated and subjected to innovative adaptation.
Ufo. Known manufacturer.Makes high quality heaters, harmless to health; objects in their zone of action are heated instantly. In addition, the advantages include the absence of odor at work, preventing the occurrence of fungus and mold due to high humidity, uniform heating process.
Flexible wall heater - a modern device that is widely popular in the improvement of apartments, houses, offices, industrial and warehouse space. The variety of devices allows you to choose a model for every taste and wallet.
