LPHW Unit Heater
FARMER OpenAir

The FARMER OpenAir unit heater has been developed for demanding industrial conditions, such as high humidity, acidic vapours, ammonia and dust. It performs excellently in agricultural facilities, including cowsheds, pig houses, stables and greenhouses. The unit operates with a heating medium and can optionally be supplied with cold water for air cooling. Thanks to its IP66 protection rating, it is resistant to dust and moisture.

Heating capacity 7,5 – 88,1 kW
Cooling capacity 7,6 – 22,7 kW
Airflow 4 500 – 5 100 m³/h
Ingress protection IP66

About the product

FARMER OpenAir is an LPHW unit heater with the highest IP66 sealing class, designed for use in the most demanding agricultural environments — cowsheds, pigsties, stables and greenhouses — where there is high humidity, acid vapours, ammonia and dust. It operates on heating medium and can optionally be supplied with cold water for air cooling.

The AC induction motor with IP66 protection and sealed construction provide full protection against dust and high-pressure water jets. The copper-aluminium heat exchanger is protected by a GOLD epoxy coating resistant to acid vapours, moisture and aggressive substances. Heating capacity reaches 88.1 kW, cooling capacity up to 22.7 kW, and airflow ranges from 4,500 to 5,100 m³/h.

The housing made of gelcoat-coated laminated panels reinforced with an aluminium internal frame provides high mechanical stability, and the easy-opening frame facilitates periodic cleaning. The 360° diffuser in powder-coated galvanised steel — in standard or horizontal version — ensures even distribution of air throughout the room.

FAQ

Yes. It simply needs to be supplied with chilled water. Cooling efficiency depends on the supply water temperature and the air inlet temperature. Due to the possibility of condensate forming, a drip tray must be used. Cooling operation is only possible when the unit heater is wall-mounted — when ceiling-mounted, the condensate would not be caught by the drip tray.

Yes, it can. Depending on requirements, a confusor (extends jet reach) or a 360° diffuser (shortens jet reach but gives better mixing with surrounding air) can additionally be fitted to the outlet.

Yes, our unit heaters are compatible with heat pumps.

No. Unit heaters can be supplied with water or glycol solution at appropriate pressure. Excessively low water pressure can negatively affect unit heater heating capacity.

Check the electrical installation connection and make sure the unit heater is connected to the supply in accordance with the wiring diagrams provided.
