Chroma Star infrared comfort
heaters are designed to provide a rugged source of
heat for use in areas where dependence on air movement
is impractical. The heaters are versatile,
designed to provide warmth directly where it is needed
for primary or spot heating applications. Each
unit is constructed for long life and requires minimal
maintenance. There are no moving parts or motors to
wear out, no air filters or lubrication required.
All Chromalox Chroma Star radiant heaters feature
the exclusive "Arctic End" Patent Pending
heating element terminal construction. This feature
lowers the terminal box temperatures resulting in
extended element and wiring life. Extruded
aluminum housings are rigid to provide added
protection to the heating elements located at the
focal point of built in mirrored aluminum reflectors. The
heaters consist of hairpin bent
.430" diameter alloy sheath tubular
elements constructed of high quality
resistance wire embedded in carefully selected MgO
refractory insulation.
The elements feature "Arctic
end" terminal construction for longer life and
cooler terminal enclosure temperatures. They also feature terminal
construction using a swaged-in silicone bushings
that produce unequalled resistance to
moisture absorption. The heating elements connect to
a gasketed, moisture resistance terminal enclosure
with liquid tight bulkhead threaded fittings. An
extension reflector constructed of 0.050" mirrored
aluminum extends over the assembly to provide a more
uniform heating pattern.
All portable heaters are supplied fully assembled
to a rugged, chrome nickel plated tubular steel cart
and handle (1.5 and 2.0 kW heater has a fixed
pedestal). The cart features
large wheels for easy portability. All portable
heaters include safety grills to protect personnel
from contacting hot elements. Field
wiring is accomplished through a 3/4"
conduit opening in terminal enclosure. The 1.5
kW unit (Model#: STAR-02-11-PC) comes
complete with a factory installed 6 foot cord and 2
prong grounding type plug. Other models can be field
wired using accessory cable and plug kits shown.
Chroma Star radiant heaters
are shipped fully assembled and can be hung from the
ceiling with 2 chains or rigid angle brackets attached
to the heater brackets located on the back of the
heater. Field wiring is accomplished through the
liquid tight terminal enclosure. No secondary splice
box required. Protective screens, disconnect switches
and portable carts are available for these heaters
as shown.
