In growing numbers, end user industries, such as those that manufacture sensitive electronic and electrical equipment that require a specific bracket of operating temperature, turn toward electric heater fans due to a perceived unreliability and high running cost of reverse-cycle air conditioning.
Safe operation of heating systems in flammable and noxious-free areas is being carried out economically with Fanquip electric heater fans in many engineering, manufacturing, and mining applications traditionally served by gas powered units.
With workplace authorities now viewing gas-powered heating units as generally unsafe in workplaces, Fanquip supplies its electric units in either mobile or wall-mounted versions.
They generate efficient and continuous heat at dock stores, warehouses, in factories, on building and construction sites, assembly lines and employee washrooms, albeit with lesser-running costs than a gas-powered equivalent.
By obviating any dependency on combustible fuels, these electric-powered units will not create danger by leaking poisonous and flammable fuel near welding sparks, flame environments, high-impact and friction operations, or in areas where personnel are abundant, as has been known to inadvertently occur with gas-fired systems.
The Fanquip fan heater range operates at a very low noise level, which makes communication in the workplace far easier compared to the conditions under the roar generated by gas or diesel-powered heaters.
It also has no naked flame heat generation, which all but eliminates the risks of burns or workplace fires.
In industries using either robotic or human welding lines, for instance, these electric units are being implemented to provide the desired environment temperature for anything from stabilisation of atmosphere-sensitive products to provision of employee comforts, while devoid of flammability risks.
With the petroleum, mining, and energy industries, OH&S guidelines require not only the availability of employee shower blocks but also adequate heating to protect the individual’s well being. Therefore, electric heaters are suited as the danger of site gases makes flame-based gas heating highly problematic.
The heater fans range in element power from the 3.0kW unit generating 10,800kJ of heat through to a 36.0kW unit with 129,600 heat energy output.
Wall-mounted versions are strategically placed around a fixed workplace to provide optimum heat levels on minimum power requirements.
Mobile heater fans are easily wheeled into position for any operation requiring its heat source to be moved according to floor plan adjustments with varying jobs.
