Description
The appliance Thermologika Soleil Plus (indicated as
TSP in the following) is a waterproof infrared lamp
(protection level IPX5) for use as supplementary
heaters, to be wall or ceiling mounted. The TSP uses
the principle of irradiation (like the sun itself), to
transmit heat to objects by means of the light rays
emitted from the lamps.
Since it has no moving parts, the TSP is totally silent
in operation.
The appliance must only be connected to a power
supply with an impedance of no more than
|Z|=0,333Ω.
Operation
TSP is particularly suitable for use in domestic,
commercial or industrial environments, especially
when more or less instant heat is required in restricted
areas. A potentiometer (optional) is used to adjust the
amount of power delivered.
ATTENTION:
TS must be connected to a fixed
power supply network.
