Heating controls by Schwank
IR and electric heating control systems
Schwank control technology has been developed specifically for Schwank radiant heating products and the uniqueness of controlling climate and heating units in commercial and industrial environments. Regular air temperature thermostats ONLY sense ambient air temperature. Controlling IR heaters with air temperature thermostats is not an accurate way to control as the comfort temperature in the space will be warmer than what the air temperature indicates. To properly control radiant heaters the thermostat must also sense radiant temperature.
We offer two types of control technology, the first our TrueTemp IR Thermostate senses radiant and ambient temperatures to establish the most comfortable temperature while reducing heat loss and operating costs. The Schwank ThermoControl Plus will communicate with an existing building management system [BMS] or IR heating management system.
Schwank heating controls
ThermoControl Plus
A programmable thermostat multi-zone controller for single-stage, 2-stage, and full modulating heating systems. Designed to regulate building heat comfort delivery according to requirements of the building, outside temperature, and the desired temperature.
TruTemp IR thermostat
Unlike conventional thermostats that measure only air temperature, this thermostat senses and averages radiant and ambient temperatures to maintain a comfortable temperature and maximize energy savings.
24V/120V thermostats
We carry a range of other thermostats, including line voltage control, 24 Vac control, 2-stage thermostatic control, and moisture resistant control for wet applications.
