ELECTRICAL CIRCULAR DUCT HEATERS Description Electrical duct heaters EKA are designed to heat fresh air in ventilation systems. Casing (EKA protection class IP 44, except EKA Type NV which protection class IP 30) is made from Aluzinc coated steel which is high temperature proof and with rubber seals for duct connection. Heating elements tube is made from stainless steel AISI 304.

ELECTRICAL CIRCULAR DUCT HEATERS IMPORTANT: The installation to the mains power supply may only be wired by a competent electrician. The power supply cable must be selected in the ratio with power of the heater. When installing these heaters, the standards and regulations in force in your country must be followed strictly adhered to. Within the installation an electrical isolation automatic circuit breaker (not included) must be present, to enable the installer to cut all power supply lines.
