INFRA tube heater | Mark Eire

High efficiency black tube radiant heater

The Mark INFRA / INFRA MONO black tube heater heats with long-wave infrared radiation. Radiant heating is based on the principle of heat transfer from a warm object to an object of lower temperature by means of electromagnetic wave energy. This electromagnetic wave, not hindered by air, radiates walls, floor and the people present in the room.

As soon as the infrared radiation gets in contact with the human body, it is converted into heat. This does not cause any change in the air temperature. This method of heat generation is considered very pleasant.

The more intense the radiant heat is, the less the actual air temperature has to be increased for a comfortable indoor climate. Therefore, heating with the Mark INFRA black tube heater is much more economical compared to conventional systems.

Possible applications include: sports halls, production facilities, aircraft hangars, showrooms and garages.

Remote Connection

The Pintherm Infra Connect can be used to control the Mark INFRA. This is a digital room thermostat for on/off, high/low or modulating control of a radiant heater based on the room temperature. The settings of the thermostat can be read and/or changed via Modbus and Ethernet. This allows for the black tube heater to operate remotely. The thermostat can be linked to the BMS (building management system).

The radiator with a double air-insulated reflector can be optimized energetically by using a flue gas cooler (type ++)
The highly reflective radiation hood features integrated V-shaped reflectors and end caps
Available in natural gas and propane
Easy installation and maintenance
Optional: waterproof stainless steel version for damp rooms

Advantages of an Infra black tube radiant heater

A radiation efficiency of up to 75% according to EN 416-2
A flue efficiency higher than 90%
No spreading of dust and low noise level during operation
Can be used in a focused way to enable a high energy efficiency
A uniform heat distribution across the entire length of the radiator is achieved by the use of an overpressure burner with a long stable flame, in combination with built-in turbulators in the radiant tube
By using a 1-stage or 2-stage control the output of the radiant heater is adapted to the required heat
