HEATSTRIP® TF2200RB

The TF2200RB is a custom-designed and manufactured heater. It has been designed for ease of use and to provide low running costs. It provides 3 levels of temperature control, an Adjustable set timer option from 0-24 hours with the touch of a button.
When the heater is plugged in or hardwired , press “power” on the remote, the power indicator light on the unit will light up and indicate the L1, L2, L3 using the + or – to change the heat settings, To set the timer click through the 0-24 hour timer.

TF2200RB Functions

L1 is the lowest heat setting and L3 is the highest heat setting.
The timer function has 0-24 hour timer. This feature is ideal for applications such as alfresco areas, restaurant dining, assembly-line production etc. when continuous heat is not required. The timer also reduces the likelihood of heaters being inadvertently left turned on.

Remote pairing

All units operate using the same remote control frequency, therefore multiple heaters can be operated using a single remote control. The remote will function at distance of over 2m when used in a straight line. This distance reduces when used at an angle.

Remote Control Operation

Installation Requirements

The ideal mounting position for the heater is on the ceiling directly above the area to be heated. If this is not possible, the heater can be mounted on a wall and angled downwards. In this situation, ensure the mounting height is in the range of 2.1m to 2.4m and the table is within 1.0m of the wall. Mounting heights above 2.5m are not recommended. Mounting heights between 2.3m – 2.4m are optimal.
Electrical connections/GPO’s should not be located at the back of the heater. They should be located outside the physical footprint of the units to minimize heat build-up behind the units.
If the heater is to be mounted on an incline (e.g. vaulted ceiling), ensure the electrical connection is located at the lowest point of the heater.
Heater can be plugged directly into a standard 10Amp GPO. Heater can also be hardwired by a licensed electrician.

The heating surface must never be directed toward the ceiling
