Radiant heaters use a reflective shield to direct radiant heat onto a heated surface. Many products are so precise that heat can be directed to pinpoint locations. Radiant heaters are used in food service, as well as in a variety of other applications. Radiant flat panel heaters are used in industries and applications such as space heating, drying and curing, water evaporation, food processing, sterilizing, material preparation, bonding and joining, and industrial manufacturing and production. Features common to radiant heaters include cooling options, internal temperature detector, liquid tight housing, cryogenic use, UL approval, explosion proof housing, weatherproof housing and corrosion resistance.
