OPRANIC I90 – VEGA Industrial Infraheater

We designed the Opranic I90 VEGA industrial infrared heater to bring efficient, focused warmth to large open spaces with high ceilings. Its 9000 W carbon infrared element delivers solid heating performance at the wavelengths the human body absorbs best, making it a dependable choice for warehouses, industrial halls, hangars, workshops and houses of worship.

Design and Safety Features

The Opranic I90 VEGA is built for tough industrial environments. The housing is anodised aluminium engineered to handle high operating temperatures, dust, vibration and humidity. Materials are rust resistant, so the heater keeps its performance and finish through demanding year-round use.

Functionality and Control

You can install the I90 VEGA in several ways to suit your facility. The following are your options:

• Ceiling mounting for direct downward heat across work zones
• Wall mounting in horizontal orientation for flexible spot coverage
• Beam or steel-profile mounting for open warehouse layouts

This flexibility lets you place focused warmth exactly where staff, customers or congregations are seated or working.

Versatility and Comfort

The Opranic I90 VEGA is a reliable industrial infrared heater offering efficient, safe and versatile operation. It is a strong choice when you need to keep large, hard-to-heat areas comfortable without paying to warm every cubic metre of air. Experience dependable comfort and lower running costs with a heater designed for serious commercial use.

Advantages of a Wall / Ceiling Heater:

• Sun-like radiant warmth from above, ideal for high ceilings and open volumes
• Flexible mounting and aiming for consistent comfort over work, dining or seating zones
• No moving air, so dust, fumes and odours are not blown around the space

Control:

• Hard-wired on/off control, suitable for facility relay, contactor or thermostat integration
• Single fixed output for simple, predictable operation
• Heat output: 9000 W
• Available in single-phase 220–230 V or three-phase 380–400 V

Design:

• Industrial, low-profile housing built for permanent installation
• Anodised aluminium body engineered for heat dissipation and durability
• Dimensions (H x W x D): 13 x 99 x 48 cm
• Weight: 15.4 kg

Heating Technology:

• The main element: optimised for human absorption at around 2.4 µm
• Medium-wave infrared radiation, converts over 90% of energy input directly to radiant heat, ultra-low light output
• Lifetime up to: 9,000 hours
• Reflector: focused parabolic reflector with high-gloss reflection, side reflectors in high-gloss stainless steel

IP Protection:

• IP34 protection, suitable for indoor industrial environments and weather-protected outdoor installations
• Designed for halls, hangars, warehouses, terraces under cover and other semi-open commercial spaces

Areas of application:

• Industrial halls, warehouses, hangars, churches, sports halls, workshops, garages, event tents, loading bays and large semi-open commercial areas where conventional convective heating is inefficient.

Heating Area:

• Single unit, concentrated coverage: up to 56 m² at 161 W/m² heat concentration
• Single unit, wider coverage: up to 78 m² at 115 W/m² heat concentration
• Multiple units can be combined in arrays to cover up to 180 m² and beyond, depending on layout and ceiling height

Installation:

• Mounted horizontally only, with the radiant face directed downward
• Recommended mounting height: 3 to 10 metres above the floor
• Suitable for fixing to walls, ceilings, beams or steel profiles in industrial layouts
• Installation must be carried out by a qualified electrician according to local regulations

Current load and fuse:

• A heater with an output of 9000 W = 9 kW
• At 230 V single-phase: 40.9 A, requires a dedicated circuit and a minimum 50 A fuse with appropriately rated cabling
• At 400 V three-phase: 13.6 A per phase, suitable for a standard 16 A three-phase circuit
• Three-phase wiring is strongly recommended for permanent industrial installations

Safety distance to flammable materials:

• Minimum distance to ceiling: 50 cm
• Minimum distance to side walls: 70 cm
• Minimum distance to floor: 300 cm
• Minimum distance to any flammable material in the radiation path: 300 cm

Heating costs:

At an average electricity price of 10 cents per kWh: 0.1 € * 9 kW ≈ 0.90 € per hour
* Applies when the heater is running continuously. Most installations cycle on demand or use contactor control, so real running costs are typically much lower.
