The electronic air flow sensor was designed specifically for VAV and CAV applications where the air flow may be too low, even below the recommended air flow. This is to be used in collaboration with modulating controls.
Can any thermostat be used with Thermolec heaters?
Thermolec can provide thermostats with any given heater upon request. If a different thermostat is to be used, make sure that the output capabilities of the thermostat is compatible with what was ordered. • Active 0-10VDC signal for modulating heaters (Similar to Thermolec’s CTH-291) • Passive Thermistor output for modulating heaters (Similar to Thermolec’s DT-1040 […]
What is the pressure drop across open and tubular/sheathed elements?
The pressure drop can be estimated by referring to the Pressure Drop Chart included in the technical notes document on our website. These values are under the guideline that the depth of the element frame is 10” (254mm).
What are the minimum recommended air flow values for open and tubular/sheathed elements?
It is recommended that the minimum air flow across the elements is 300 FPM (1.52 L/S) for open element heaters and 500 FPM (2.53 L/S) for tubular/sheathed elements.
What certification standards does Thermolec comply to?
