Combines the elegant shapes of a minimalist design with the laws of physics. Developed together with the engineers of the Enzo Ferrari Department of the University of Modena, it optimizes the natural radiation of heat by exploiting the emissivity linked to temperature and that linked to color to rationalize consumption.
The black surface of the reflecting body emits the maximum radiation at each temperature and wavelength. The black surface and the thickness of anodizing have been calculated to maximize emissivity. A cross section with decreasing thickness draws heat from the heating elements to spread it evenly up to the sides. The longitudinal ribs increase the radiating surface intensifying the irradiation and allowing the rays to spread further, expanding the range of action accordingly.
The optimization of the insulation between the radiant and the upper body allows to transmit the highest possible percentage of heat to the people to be heated.
The insulation system also includes some technical measures to reduce the effects of thermal bridges. The duration of the product is guaranteed by a careful choice of materials. The armored heating elements are siliconed to reach IP67 and preserve them from humidity, thus safeguarding their life span and avoiding short circuits. The operating temperature is 340 ° C to maximize the emission of infrared rays remaining below the limits of decay of the anodization.
About The Hot-Top Range of Patio Heaters
Long-wave MO-EL IR-C heaters offer a pleasant feeling of warmth and enveloping tones. Attention to performance and appearance come together to create a prestigious heater that creates a comfortable warmth zone around people. While ensuring the efficiency of the heating, it allows the control of energy consumption.
HOT-TOP is rated IP55 protected against water and dust and it is suitable for indoor and outdoor applications. Available from 1500 up to 3200 W of power plus optional dimmer settings. HOT-TOP combines the elegant shapes of a minimalist design with the laws of physics.
HOT-TOP has been developed in team with the engineers of the Enzo Ferrari department of the Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia. Its heating diffusion is inspired by the radiator installed on racing cars. This is how its heating diff user amplifies the natural radiation of heat by exploiting the emissivity linked to temperature and colour to optimize efficiency. It converts maximum energy into cozy warmth. The emitter is grooved to direct the radiation and widen the emission surface as much as possible.
Thus, the black surface of the reflecting body emits maximum radiation at any temperature or wavelength. The black surface and the thickness of the anodization have been calculated to maximize emissivity. A cross section with decreasing thickness draws heat from the heating elements to spread it evenly up to the sides. The longitudinal ribs increase the radiating surface intensifying the irradiation and allowing the rays to spread further, expanding the range of action accordingly. The optimization of the insulation between the radiant and the upper body allows to transmit the highest possible percentage of heat to the target to be warmed.
The insulation system includes special technical measures to minimize the effects of thermal bridges. The durability of the product is guaranteed by a careful choice of materials. The armoured heating elements are sealed in order to meet the IP67 standard and preserve them from humidity, thus safeguarding their life span and avoiding short circuits. The operating temperature is 340 °c to maximize the emission of infrared rays remaining below the limits of decay of the anodization. HOT-T0P creates a comfortable and embracing atmosphere.
