Power Controllers

Our range of versatile single phase controllers enable you to control the power of the infra-red heating from 30–100% using a handy remote handset. 

These simple to use controllers are easy to install and maintenance free. 

They can be installed with new heaters or retro-fitted to existing heaters

Also included is the provision for a remote temperature sensor and Passive infra-red movement detector

• Single-phase Power Controllers can be used with any of our infra-red heaters

• 3kW operating capacity

• Smart memory stores the setting you have chosen even when you switch off

• Using an optional movement detector means that you can never leave a heater on - it will always switch off on its own if no one is in front of it!

• Using an optional remote temperature sensor means that the heaters will not energise if the atmosphere is too warm

• The remote control version means that you can switch your heaters on and off or up and down without having to get out of you seat!

Coin Operated Timer

Energy Efficient Timer Control of outdoor Electric Heating and Other Electrical Devices

Not only does this dramatically save you money on your electricity bills, it also pays for itself in money generated from its use.

This clever device allows the use of an infra-red heater (or other electrical device) via a coin operated switch.  The timer takes £1 coins, 20p, 10p and even tokens.

Features and Benefits

• has a 4 digit LED display

• is fully programmable

• can be set to time from 1 second to 99 hours,

• has a pre end warning sound,

• has a key operated over-ride feature

• will record the number of coins in the machine since it was last emptied

• has an optional credit hold function

• has an easy push button start

Up to 6kW of load can be connected to the timer, and this device can be connected to all of our heaters or even retro-fitted to your existing units.

There are many uses for this device including

• Patio Heaters
• Smoking shelter Heaters
• Showers
• Squash Courts
• Equestrian Lighting
• Gaming Modules
• Snooker Lights

Movement Detectors

These easy to install Passive Infra-red Movement Detectors (PIR's) detect movement and switch your heaters on automatically.  The built-in adjustable timer will switch the heater off automatically if no movement is detected within the pre-set time

Ideal where automatic switching is required.  For example

• Commercial outdoor patio areas
• Smoking shelters
• Reception areas
• Waiting rooms
• Available as 2kW, 2.4kW and 3kW versions

Infresco-P Soft-start Movement Detector

The infresco-P Controllers are part of a family of controllers designed to provide energy saving when used with Quartz Infrared Halogen Lamps.

The units have built in PIR sensor allowing the lamps to automatically switch on only when people are present. In addition to the PIR, a temperature sensor monitors the outside temperature and inhibits the lamps when the temperature exceeds a pre-determined set point of between 1 and 40 degrees Celsius.

The microcontroller-based system incorporates zero-voltage switching and a soft-start function to eliminate the lamps’ initial high inrush current – potentially increasing lamp life by as much as 30%.

The lamps are switched on for a fixed time period of 5 minutes.  This period is reset each time the PIR detects any further movement. Installation is simple and once installed is relatively maintenance free.

Product Features

• Significant energy saving - provides heat only when people are present
  Extends lamp Life
• Temperature monitor – lamps inhibited when ambient temperature exceeds set point
• Soft-start/zero-voltage switch-off
• Low-cost
• Easy to install

Ideal where automatic switching is required.  For example

• Commercial outdoor patio areas
• Smoking shelters
• Reception areas
• Waiting rooms

The microcontroller-based system incorporates zero-voltage switching and a soft-start function to eliminate the lamps’ initial high inrush current – potentially increasing lamp life by as much as 30%.

The 6kW  model has a built in PIR sensor allowing the lamps to automatically switch on only when people are present. In addition to the PIR, a temperature sensor monitors the outside temperature and inhibits the lamps when the temperature exceeds a predetermined set point of between 5 and 25 degrees Celsius.

Designed with ease of wiring in mind, this unit is ideal for controlling up to four 1.5kW lamps through the use of two additional cable entry points.

The lamps are switched on for a pre-determined time period of between 5 and 30 minutes. This period is reset each time the PIR detects any further movement. Installation is simple and once installed is relatively maintenance free.

Typical applications are Pub Patio areas, Smoking Shelters, Restaurants, Warehouses, reception areas and waiting rooms
