Optimized Airflow and Heat Distribution

Even heating is crucial, and the BT400-NEX-G Heater ensures uniform heat distribution with its well-engineered airflow system:

  1. Air enters through the air inlet louvers.
  2. It passes through and around the heat exchanger.
  3. The heater pushes warm air through ducts, ensuring consistent warmth across your entire workspace.

With this system, you never have to worry about cold spots or uneven heating.

Reliable and Efficient Fuel System

A 16-gallon fuel tank powers the BT400-NEX-G Heater, keeping it running for extended periods without the hassle of frequent refueling.

The fuel system efficiently delivers a steady supply of fuel to both the heater and the engine.. This means:

  • No unexpected shutdowns
  • No interruptions during critical operations

Durability matters, and the BT400-NEX-G Heater features a high-performance heat exchanger that ensures:

  • Effective heating with minimal energy waste
  • Long-lasting durability to withstand tough industrial environments
  • Consistent operation, keeping your workspace warm even in freezing conditions

By investing in a reliable and robust heater, you minimize downtime and maximize efficiency.

Operating the BT400-NEX-G Heater is simple. Its intuitive control panel places all essential functions within reach, including:

  • Discharge air temperature gauge – Monitor and adjust heat output easily.
  • Burner control valve – Fine-tune performance to meet specific heating needs.
  • Emergency shut-off switch – Quickly power down the heater when necessary.

Instead of complex controls, this heater provides a hassle-free experience, allowing your team to focus on the job at hand.

Prioritizing Safety and Compliance

Safety remains a top priority in industrial settings. The BT400-NEX-G Heater includes multiple built-in safety features to protect your team and equipment.

  • Emergency shut-off switch prevents accidents.
  • High-temperature limit switches stop overheating before it becomes a problem.
