Description
Introduction
The infresco-P 4kW is part of a family of controllers designed to provide energy saving when used with Quartz Infrared
Halogen Lamps. The ‘P’ 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 pre-determined set point of between 1°C and 60°C.
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 of the unit is simple
and once installed is relatively maintenance-free
• Energy saving:-
o Only provides heat when people are present.
• Extends lamp life.
• Temperature sensor:-
o Lamps inhibited when ambient temperature exceeds set point.
• Soft-start/zero-voltage switch-off.
• Low-cost.
• Easy to install.
• Power ON (Blue) & Heater ON (Red) LED indication
