ULTRATHERM – radiant heating panels

Ultratherm heaters utilize the principle of infrared radiation with a long wave length. This radiation occurs outside the visible spectrum and is therefore invisible to the human eye. The radiated heat doesn´t warm the air but only the solid objects which it hits – i.e. the equipment of the vivarium, as well as the animals living there. This way of heating is very similar to that of normal solar radiation and therefore is the most similar to that found the natural environment where the kept animals normally live. The panels are fitted with a thermal fuse which protects them against overheating. Installation is possible in a vertical position; mounting frames have to be ordered if vertical installation is required. The standard colour of the panels is brown - they can also be ordered in white, and other colours are also possible for an extra fee.
