Ballu thermal guns: classification and usage features

The thermal gun is a large power fan, which is designed for drying and heating the room, which has a large area. The device with a useful power of 1 kilowatt is able to heat about 30 meters square of the room. Using the device, it is possible to heat up to a temperature of 20 degrees. Thus, one Ballu heat gun is capable of heating a room up to 450 sq. M.

In its design, any fan heater consists of a body, built-in fan, a block of heating elements (heaters, combustion chambers, etc.), a mode switch, a thermostat and a control device. Some models of devices are equipped with a special filter that purifies the air.

When the heat gun is operating, the room is warmed up quickly enough. This is possible due to the ability of devices to create increased air circulation due to the operation of the fan. By their design, fan heaters produce various types, shapes, and capacities.

The shape is divided into square and cylindrical devices. Ballu square heat gun has low power, and the heating element of the device is made in the form of a grid. Cylindrical devices have increased power characteristics up to 54 kW, and their heating element is in the form of a spiral. These devices, due to their design, give a much higher temperature.

By the type of energy source, all Ballu heat guns are divided into gas, diesel and electric. The most popular are electrical devices due to their ease of operation and maintenance. Therefore, they are found more often than other types of devices.

Ballu electric heat guns are used both in industry and at home. Usually the source of heat generation is one TET or a group of them. The power of such a heating element usually does not exceed two kW.

The main advantage of electric heat fans is mobility, it is convenient to transport them to any place. The main shortcomings include the need to create an industrial voltage.

Ballu diesel heat guns are used for the same purposes, but they have structural differences. The device is powered by the combustion of kerosene or diesel fuel. Today, these devices are divided into indirect heaters and direct heating, which have their advantages and disadvantages. The first variety is most often used for heating premises where people or animals can stay for a long time. This device has increased protection against the penetration of combustion products into the heated room.

Diesel gun with direct heating does not have a chimney, which leads to the entry of combustion products into the building. The device is inadmissible to use where people are. Most often these devices are used for heating various material dryers, for drying coatings of building mixtures.

Gas heat guns Ballu are designed for the rapid heating of any premises. They have a small mass and size and are capable of operating on natural or liquefied gas.
