Electric heaters

An electric heater is designed to heat the airflow, which is stated on the technical data sheet, from
the specified air inlet temperature to the air outlet temperature. TRANE provides electric heaters
with one or more stages according to customer requirements.
The control of the electric heater provided by the customer can be carried out in several ways:
On-Off at single-stage electric heater (this type of control decreases the lifetime of the electric
