TABLE OF CONTENTS
This catalog describes the design and construction features
and benefits, typical applications, dimensional data, and
configurations available for the IHR and ITP Series.
Modine’s IHR Series is a gas-fired, high intensity ceramic
infrared heater. Ideal for spot heating, the IHR series offers
simple gas and power connections, as well as inexpensive
maintenance.
Modine's IPT Series sets the industry standard for low intensity
infrared heating performance and installation versatility. The
comfort and uniform heating provided by the IPT Series are
second to none.

WARNING
Do not locate ANY gas-fired unit in areas where chlorinated,
halogenated or acid vapors are present in the atmosphere.
WARNING
Do not install in potentially explosive or flammable atmosphere
laden with dust, sawdust, or similar airborne materials.
As Modine Manufacturing Company has a continuous product improvement program, it reserves the right to change design and specifications without notice.

Infrared Heating Defined
Infrared heating systems rely upon the transfer of radiant
energy from hot heat exchanger surfaces (up to 1850°F for high
intensity heaters) through the air to cooler surfaces, without the
use of an air mover. Since radiant energy always travels in a
straight line from its source, people and objects within a direct
line-of-sight of the heat exchanger become warmed immediately.
While capable of being used for total building heating or
large area heating, they are ideally suited for spot heating
applications. Spot heating involves small areas such as loading
dock doors and single person work cells.
Advantages of Infrared Heating
No air mover, reducing electricity and maintenance costs
while increasing worker comfort from the absence of drafts
and annoying fan noise.
Quick temperature recovery, as only objects need to be
heated, not large volumes of air.
Significant energy savings through use of zone control and/
or spot heating, which heats objects without the need to heat
large air volumes.
Typical Applications
