Modern air tight construction methods, combined with high levels of insulation mean these high volume buildings don't require heaters with big outputs, but do need high airflows to efficiently distribute heat throughout the building. Ace fan heaters have powerful fans which throw warm air up to 15m (49ft). Where this is not sufficient polythene ducting can be attached to distribute warm air up to 45m (150ft.). Ace fan heaters are intended for use in large factories, workshops, warehouses, etc. Because of the noise produced by the fan and air passing through the heater they are not suitable for use in small buildings, buildings with low ceilings, or where a continuous loud noise would be intrusive. In such cases use our wall mounted fan heaters instead. Ace fan heaters are available with either 10kW or 20kW outputs, for use with 400V 3 phase electricity supplies. Heavy duty heatingThe Ace fan heater is a heavy duty unit designed for use in the toughest environments. Its case is fabricated from steel, finished in pastel beige (RAL7032) scratch and corrosion resistant polyester powder paint. Zinc plated steel finger guards are fitted to the inlet and outlet.The fan motor is efficient, lightweight and robust. It is totally enclosed and sealed for life. The impeller blades are made from high quality GRP, fitted to die cast aluminium hubs, coated in polyester powder paint. They are factory set and balanced for maximum efficiency. Ducting optionsThe Ace fan heater can be used free blowing or with:Polythene ducting - to distribute warm air upto 40m (131 ft.) See Ace fan heater accessories for further details. Mounting optionsThe Ace fan heater is designed to be suspended overhead by chains or wire rope, and is supplied with four suspension eyes. Optional brackets are available which allow the heater to be suspended using 8mm threaded rods, see accessories for details.Over heat protectionFor complete safety Ace fan heaters are fitted with two over heat cutouts, in the fan motor and adjacent to the element assembly. The cutouts automatically reset once the temperature falls to a safe level.
External controlsThe Activair Ace heater requires external control equipment. It can be controlled by thermostat, humidistat, or electronic building controls, see controlling Ace electric fan heaters for more information. Our basic control panel is enclosed in a IP66 steel case, with a door interlocked isolator. Inside it has an mcb for the fan motor, element contactor, and indicator lights for the fan and elements. The twin heater panel is fitted with separate element mcbs for each heater. A Heatmiser IQ controller allows for seperate day and night temperatures, and different on/off patterns to be set for each day. Note the IQ is rated IP20, and must not be used in wet or very damp environments. 1st January 2018 - Ecodesign Directive (Lot 21 - warm air heating)In order to comply with the Ecodesign Directive 2009/125/EU from the 1st January 2018 Ace electrical fan heaters can only be purchased with one of our matching control panels. The directive also appies when replacing existing products, so replacement heaters can only be supplied without control panels where customers can demonstrate their control gear meets the new minimum requirements.
