Radiant heater is a modern type of heater that heats matter instead of air molecules, unlike conventional heaters. Radiant heaters, which convert the energy they receive from NG, LP or electricity into heat energy, give this energy to the environment to be heated with infrared rays. The working principle of radiant heaters is similar to the sun’s heating principle. Heat is generated when the sun’s infrared rays hit the earth.
This is exactly how heating takes place in radiant heaters. Infrared rays emanating from the heater hit the objects and people in the environment to be heated. Thus, a heat is generated in the area where it hits. This is the biggest feature that distinguishes radiant heaters from other heaters. The reason why these heaters are used easily in large and wide areas is that they heat objects and people without trying to heat the air. Thus, they are not absorbed by the air and can be used easily in open, semi-open and very large areas.
Daygas Heating Systems produces different radiant heaters in many models. Although the working principle of these devices is based on the same basis, they have different ways of functioning. To briefly mention them;
Working Principle of Daygas Ceramic Radiant Heater
In ceramic plate radiant heaters, combustion occurs on the ceramic plates on the device. There is no obstacle in front of this burning. Therefore, it reaches the desired environment to be heated directly without any heat and radiation loss. Daygas ceramic radiant heaters are the heaters with the fastest heating capacity. These heaters are highly preferred in areas where district heating is required or where comfort heating is required, as they respond very quickly. Daygas ceramic radiant heaters are produced in two different categories as industrial and cafe – restaurant. They are in the category of type A gas burning device. Thus, they do not need any chimney system.
Working Principle of Daygas Tubular Radiant Heater
In tube type radiant heaters, combustion occurs in the burner. The resulting combustion heats the radiant pipe and the heat is transferred to the desired area thanks to the reflector on it. Tubular radiant heaters are the second device with the fastest heating capacity. Daygas tubular radiant heaters are the most preferred heater model in high ceiling and large volume spaces. Since type B is in the gas burner category, it needs a flue system.
Working Principle of Gas Unit Heater
In the gas unit heater, combustion takes place inside the device. The heat obtained by combustion is given to the desired environment with the help of an axial fan. Daygas gas unit heater models are the devices with the most homogeneous heat distribution. They are in the B type gas burner category and require a chimney system.
Radiant heaters have multiple advantages. Therefore, they are highly preferred. Let’s take a look at the advantages of radiant heaters that provide optimum heating in cafes, restaurants and industrial areas.
Advantages of Radiant Heaters
Low Energy Consumption: Radiant heaters are devices that provide high performance with low energy consumption. They help you save energy to a great extent in places that need to be open all day long or even 24 hours, such as cafes and restaurants, industrial areas.
They Are Not Absorbed By Air: Since radiant heaters provide heating by radiation, they are not affected by cold air waves and are not absorbed by the air. Thus, they can be used easily in large areas, open and semi-open areas. Another advantage of not being affected by the cold air wave is that it does not increase energy consumption.
Safe Heating: Radiant heaters provide very safe heating. Especially the safe gas valve system in each of the Daygas radiant heater models offers you a safe heat environment. Long-lasting Usage: You can use radiant heaters for a long time, whose periodic maintenance is done on time and is not interrupted.
