As an infrared heater, the under-table heating element is used in a fixed location to heat the footwell, for example under the desk or under the bench. The effective, yet small-format under-bench heating element heats the floor using radiation. Only when it comes into contact with the warm surface does the room air heat up evenly and with almost no flow. This creates the conditions for local thermal comfort without unnecessary energy consumption. The under-table heating element of the VL-T series is made of galvanized sheet steel, 0.8 mm thick, the front is powder-coated, white RAL 9016. The elements are closed at the back with a bare cover. Surface temperature max. 80 °C at an ambient temperature of 20 °C. The heating elements are equipped with a 1.2 m long connection cable with a power plug for the mains connection. For operation as a stationary single-room heater, an additional room thermostat with weekly programming and detection of open windows and/or adaptive control of the start of heating and/or remote control option (outside the building) is required. The Vitramo room thermostat VTD-UP and those in the VTX series control Vitramo ceiling and wall heating elements in accordance with eco-design. Vitramo heating elements may only be installed by a specialist. Vitramo is a leading manufacturer and produces wall and ceiling infrared heaters exclusively in Germany.
