Description

The Chromalox ChromaStar™ infra-red comfort heaters are designed to provide a rugged source of heat for use in areas where dependence on air movement is impractical.  The heaters are versatile, designed to provide warmth directly where it is needed for primary or spot heating applications. Each unit is constructed for long life and requires minimal maintenance. There are no moving parts or motors to wear out, no air filters or lubrication required. All Chromalox ChromaStar™ radiant heaters feature the exclusive "Arctic End" Patent Pending heating element terminal construction. This feature lowers the terminal box temperatures resulting in extended element and wiring life. Extruded aluminum housings are rigid to provide added protection to the heating elements located at the focal point of a built-in mirrored aluminum reflector(s). The heater(s) consist of hairpin bent .430" diameter alloy sheath tubular  element(s) constructed of high quality resistance wire embedded in carefully selected MgO refractory insulation.


The element(s) feature "Arctic end" terminal construction for longer life and cooler terminal enclosure temperatures.

The element(s) also feature terminal construction using a waged-in silicone bushings  that produce unequalled resistance to moisture absorption. The heating element(s) connect to a gasketed, moisture resistance terminal enclosure with liquid-tight bulkhead threaded fittings. An extension reflector constructed of 0.050" mirrored aluminum extends over the assembly to provide a more uniform heating pattern.

Portable

All portable heaters are supplied fully assembled to a rugged, chrome-nickel plated tubular steel cart and handle (1.5 and 2.0 kW heater has a fixed pedestal). The cart features large wheels for easy portability. All portable heaters include safety grills to protect personnel from contacting hot elements. Field wiring is accomplished through a 3/4" conduit opening in terminal enclosure. The 1.5 kW unit (Model#: STAR-02-11-PC) comes complete with a factory installed 6 foot cord and 2 prong grounding type plug. Other models can be field wired using accessory cable and plug kits shown.

Fixed Overhead

The Chromalox ChromaStar™ radiant heater is shipped fully assembled and can be hung from the ceiling with 2 chains or rigid angle brackets attached to the heater brackets located on the back of the heater. Field wiring is accomplished through the liquid tight terminal enclosure. No secondary splice box required. Protective screens, disconnect switches and portable carts are available for these heaters as shown.

Tip Over Switch Kits

Chromalox STARTIP tip-over switch kits can be easily added to all Chromalox STAR 06 or 14 series factory assembled portable heaters or fixed overhead heaters which have been modified by use of a portable STAR-CART kit. This kit is designed to de-energize the heating elements of unattended units in event the heater is accidentally knocked over. The kit includes a control circuit transformer, magnetic contactor, tip-over switch assembly and on-off toggle switch with rubber boot, completely prewired in a NEMA 4 enclosure.  The kit also includes a 1" coupling, wiring between the contactor and heater, mounting bracket, hardware and instructions to complete the installation to the heater.

Tip-Over Switch and Ground Fault Detector Kits (for Portable STAR-06 and STAR-14 Heaters)

The Chromalox STAR-TG series kits include the components and features of the STARTIP tip-over kits with the additional protection provides by a ground fault detector. The ground fault detector will monitor for any gradual changes in the insulation level due to humidity or mechanical damage as they develop and will de-energize the contactor to prevent arcing type faults, preventing premature element failure and potential fire damage.
