Heater Specifications

Electric heaters differ from steam or hot water coils in that the heat output is constant as long as the heater is energized. Therefore, sufficient airflow must be provided to prevent overheating and nuisance tripping of the thermal cutouts. The minimum required velocity is determined from Figure 4A or 4B on the basis of entering air temperature and KW per square foot of cross sectional duct area. The maximum air inlet temperature for open coil heaters is 100°F (38°C) and for finned tubular heaters is 80°F (27°C).
