Black Body® Commercial Infrared Heaters by BBC Industries, Inc. radiate heat across their entire surface to produce uniform, even, infrared heat that can be precisely regulated and controlled.  The panel, which requires no reflectors, will easily convert nearly all energy into useful heat.

Black Body® Commercial Infrared Heaters are available in 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-foot lengths.  Special design voltages and wattages are available for both single- and 3-phase applications.

Each Black Body® Commercial Infrared Heater will radiate heat across the entire surface and convert nearly all energy into useful heat. The heater's modular design, zonability, and precise control should take care of almost any operation you would like to use it for. Special design voltages and wattages are available for both single and 3-phase applications.

Features

  • Easily Zoned for Process Flexibility
  • Easy to Install
  • Economical and Efficient
  • Modular Design Allows Any Configuration
  • No Bulbs to Replace or Reflectors to Polish
