Description

The Ruffneck CR1 Triton 480V 10kW Washdown Heater (CR1-480360-100-T) is an advanced electric unit heater engineered for superior performance and longevity in non-hazardous industrial and commercial environments that necessitate frequent washdowns and exhibit corrosive conditions. As part of the pioneering CR1 Triton series, this model offers a robust heating solution from a product line recognized for being the first UL-listed Type 4X heaters.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• NEMA 4X Washdown Capability: The entire heater assembly is NEMA Type 4X rated, ensuring comprehensive protection against dust, dirt, and hose-directed water spray (up to 70 psi). This provides increased safety and protection against water penetration, making it ideal for regular cleaning.
• Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: Constructed with a 16-gauge stainless-steel cabinet and custom-configured stainless-steel heating elements, the heater offers better resistance to corrosion for a longer operational life in challenging environments. The epoxy-coated fan blade adds further corrosion protection.
• Efficient Forced Air Heating: Delivers 34,120 BTU/hour (10 kW) of forced air heat, ensuring effective and uniform temperature distribution throughout the space.
• Integrated Temperature Control: Features a built-in thermostat, typically adjustable from 40-110°F (4.4-43.3°C), allowing for precise climate management without external controls.
• Enhanced Safety Features: Includes a stainless-steel automatic reset temperature high-limit, increasing safety and reliability by preventing overheating.
• Versatile Mounting: Comes with a stainless-steel wall/ceiling mounting kit, providing flexible installation options and reducing field installation costs. It can be mounted up to a 45° angle.
• UL/cUL Listed: Certified for non-hazardous locations, guaranteeing adherence to stringent safety and performance standards.
