Bosch INTEGRUS - Plan an Integrus Infrared Radiation System; Rectangular Footprints

Plan an Integrus infrared radiation system
Rectangular footprints
Determining the optimal number of infrared radiators required to give 100% coverage of a hall
can normally only be done by performing a site test. However, a good estimation can be made
by using 'guaranteed rectangular footprints'. Figure 4.19 and 4.20 show what is meant by a
rectangular footprint. As can be seen, the rectangular footprint is smaller than the total
footprint. Note that in figure 4.20 the 'offset' X is negative because the radiator is actually
mounted beyond the horizontal point at which the rectangular footprint starts.

The guaranteed rectangular footprints for various number of carriers, mounting heights and
mounting angles can be found in section Guaranteed rectangular footprints, page 85. The
height is the distance from the reception plane and not from the floor.
