The Powrmatic OUH Range is a range of oil fired forced
draught, closed flue, fanned circulation air heaters having
an output range of 20kW to 60kW .
The heaters are designed for suspension from suitable
roof points, or alternatively mounted on purpose designed
wall brackets, and are intended for heating commercial or
industrial premises.
The OUH-F has an axial type fan assembly fitted at the
rear of each heater to circulate the air being heated across
the combined combustion chamber/ heat exchanger. A
centrifugal fan variation is presented in the OUH-C range
for ducted applications. The OUH-D range, in having no
fan fitted, allows for ducted use where the air moving unit
is remote from the heater.
All units are fired with a forced draught packaged oil
burner complete with all necessary safety controls. Each
air heater must be connected to an individual closed flue
system only.
