Radiant Tube Heater

Radiant Tube Heater

Space-Ray’s patented innovative safety feature for positive pressure radiant tube heaters is called the “Tube Integrity Safety System” (TISS™). The revolutionary TISS™ uses a simple principle to place an electrically insulated aluminum wire in tension above the reflector as shown above.

Low voltage is then continuously passed along the wire in line with the gas control circuit. If heat levels increase due to heat exchanger failure, the wire melts and the safety circuit is broken, breaking the 24 volt circuit and shutting down the heat

This is the most efficient method of heating many facilities. "Great for poultry, swine, and dairy milking parlors." Allows heat to be radiated directly to the animals and allows them to fi nd their own comfort zone, either closer to or farther away from the heater. This reduces stress and creates an environment that allows for better performance.

An energy efficient radiant heating system that saves fuel, reducesmaintenance, and permits higher mounting. The Defender stainlesssteel control box is water resistant and approved for high pressurewash down up to 3500 PSI.

• Water resistant feature means easier maintenance and reduced man hours.
• Calorized aluminized steel emitter tubes for corrosion resistance and greater output.
• Can be used in a vented or indirect (unvented) mode.
• Available in either natural or propane gas models.
• Tube lengths are 20 ft. to 40 ft.
• BTU input ratings are 75,000 To 150,000 BTU/ Hr.
• Optional Cold Air Stopper™ stops cold or hot air from entering the poultry housewhen the heaters are not in operation and helps to reduce sweating problems.(Not available on the 150,000 BTU/Hr. model).
• Includes TISS™ (Tube Integrity Safety System) – Space-Ray’s patented, innovative safety system.In the event of a tube failure, TISS has been designed to automatically shut off the heater.
• Heavy-duty stainless steel burners for long life.
• Unique diagnostic monitory lights show when heater isoperating and assists with fault diagnosis.
• 10-Year Limitied Warranty on Tubes.
• Lifetime Limited Warranty on Burner.
• Available in Single Stage and 2-Stage
• New Air Intake Kit for Radiant Tube Heat - Kit includes flexible hose, adapter, 4" duct, round inlet cap with screen, mounting bracket, & all needed hardware
• 6-gauge aluminized combustion chamber - (1st 10')
• Turbulator baffle for maximum efficiency
• 4" overlapping slip-fi t tube connections
• 100% enclosed components
• Solid state silicon carbide ignition system
• Unique anti-rattle reflector springs
• 1/2" gas cock provided
• High-efficiency polished aluminum reflectors
• Less time to preheat - 24 hours in winter and 12 hours in summer
• Set point should be 2 degrees less than other heaters
• The Heater should have a 12" (1ft) clearance from ceilings, fogger lines, and feed lines.
• The tube must be hot to obtain the radiant (free) heat. Use the recommended on-off points so the heaters run more frequently: Set point 90 degrees (For example), Low off - 89.5, Low on 88.0, High off 88.0, High on 86.0.
