The Vitramo infrared heating element of the VH series is suitable for surface mounting on the ceiling or suspended from cables. The heating element reaches a maximum surface temperature of 190 ° Celsius. The infrared heater is produced in a sandwich construction and consists of a single-pane safety glass pane (ESG glass pane made of white glass, low in iron oxide, satin finish, 5mm thick, standard surface color white similar to RAL 9010) which is heated on the back by a heating layer that converts electrical energy into heat. This layer is glass fiber reinforced and embedded in a plastic mass. The back is effectively thermally insulated and completed by an aluminum cover that also encloses the sides. The weight of the VH10050 is 9.8 kg. For the mains connection, the heating elements are equipped with a plug on the device cover to match the loose connection socket supplied. Vitramo heating elements are supplied without a mains plug and may only be installed by a specialist. The infrared heat radiation generated is emitted by the heating element in an area that is practically comparable to a hemisphere. Vitramo recommends installing the infrared heater on the ceiling, as this achieves a radiation share of up to 80%. Warm walls are better than hot air because the temperature difference between the wall and the room air acts like a natural vapor barrier. As long as the wall is warmer, no water vapor is carried into the wall from the room air and the wall remains dry. Although the temperature difference between the inner and outer building shell increases, the heat loss through the wall (transmission) decreases overall. Under these conditions, the heating requirement drops significantly, especially in vapor-permeable buildings, provided the building shell is intact and has no structural defects. Vitramo is a leading manufacturer of infrared heating elements for wall and ceiling mounting and produces exclusively
