ECOSUN S+ Anticor high-performance infrared heater: industrial heating for halls and workshops

The Ecosun S+ Anticor is a long-wave infrared ceiling heater (IR-C dark radiator) with a corrosion-resistant aluminium-zinc housing and double protective coating. It heats well-insulated halls, workshops and damp rooms with mounting heights of 3 to 5 metres evenly, silently and without draughts. Available in six output levels from 900 W to 3600 W, for 230 V or 400 V.

Which rooms is the Ecosun S+ Anticor suitable for?

The Ecosun S+ Anticor is the right choice for compact, well-insulated rooms with low air exchange where even, wide-area heat distribution is desired. It shows its strengths wherever standard heaters quickly reach their limits due to corrosion.

Typical applications:

• Workshops and smaller production halls with good insulation
• Damp rooms, laundries and car washes
• Food processing and commercial kitchen areas
• Agricultural businesses, stables and storage rooms
• Coastal buildings exposed to salty air
• Zone heating of individual workstations in enclosed halls

The Ecosun S+ Anticor is less suitable for large, open or poorly insulated halls with high ceilings, frequently opened doors or strong draughts. For these, we recommend our high-performance heaters TEL Forza and TEL Forza Carbon (see comparison below).

Technical data for all models

How much heating output do I need?

Full heating: At a mounting height of 5 metres, allow approximately 100 W per m² of hall floor area as a guide value. Depending on insulation and room conditions, the requirement may vary by around 20 W/m² up or down.

Calculation example: A well-insulated workshop of 80 m² requires around 8,000 W for full heating, for example two Ecosun S+ 36 Anticor (3600 W each) plus one Ecosun S+ 09 Anticor (900 W).

Zone heating: If only individual workstations are to be heated, we recommend several smaller units at a mounting height of 3 to 4.5 metres. Connected in series and controlled separately, they save energy and deliver heat exactly where people are working.

We will be happy to calculate the output required for your hall individually.

Anticor version: protection for aggressive environments

The housing is made of aluminium-zinc sheet with a double protective layer. This construction prevents electrochemical reactions on the housing and ensures a long service life, even with permanently high humidity, salty air or chemical exposure, for example from cleaning agents or ammonia in stables.

Advantages of the long-wave dark radiator

• No glare: no visible light, pleasant at workstations
• Silent and draught-free: no fan, no dust circulation
• Maintenance-free: no lamps or other wearing parts
• Even heat: ideal for enclosed rooms with constant use
• Demand-driven: thermostat-controlled, heat only when it is needed
• Flexible: for full heating or zone heating, on 230 V or 400 V

Installation and mounting

The Ecosun S+ Anticor is mounted on the ceiling or wall. With the optionally available angle brackets for Ecosun S+ Anticor, the heater can be tilted to direct the heat precisely to the desired area. Models up to 1200 W are connected to 230 V; from 1800 W, connection to either 230 V or 400 V is possible. Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician.

Note on the Ecodesign Regulation: In accordance with Regulation (EU) 2015/1188, the Ecosun S+ Anticor is intended for operation with an external room thermostat. This must offer electronic room temperature control with a weekly programme and at least one additional function, for example adaptive start control, remote control via app or open window detection.

Long-wave or high-performance heater: Ecosun S+ Anticor compared with TEL Forza

Which infrared heater is the best fit depends mainly on the mounting height, insulation and air movement in the hall.

For large industrial halls, warehouses with roller doors or workstations in poorly insulated buildings, TEL Forza and TEL Forza Carbon are usually the more efficient solution. The Ecosun S+ Anticor complements the range for compact, sheltered and corrosive environments.

Frequently asked questions about the Ecosun S+ Anticor

What does Anticor mean for the Ecosun S+?

Anticor refers to the corrosion-resistant version with an aluminium-zinc housing and double protective layer. It is designed for damp rooms, stables, car washes, food businesses and coastal regions.

Is the Ecosun S+ Anticor suitable for damp rooms?

Yes. The Anticor version was specially developed for environments with high humidity and salty or chemically contaminated air.

How high can the Ecosun S+ Anticor be mounted?

3 to 5 metres is recommended. For zone heating, 3 to 4.5 metres is suitable. For higher ceilings, we recommend TEL Forza or TEL Forza Carbon.

Does the heater glow during operation?

No. As a long-wave dark radiator, the Ecosun S+ Anticor emits no visible light and causes no glare.

Do I need a three-phase power connection?

No. All models can be operated on 230 V. Models from 1800 W can also be connected to 400 V.

Does the Ecosun S+ Anticor need a thermostat?

Yes. Under the Ecodesign Regulation (EU) 2015/1188, operation with an external thermostat with a weekly programme and at least one additional function is required, for example remote control via app or open window detection.

Does the Ecosun S+ Anticor require maintenance?

No. The heater has no lamps, no fan and no other wearing parts, making it maintenance-free.

Tip: When powered by electricity from renewable energies, the Ecosun S+ Anticor heats particularly sustainably and without direct CO₂ emissions on site.
