Description

VASNER presents Konvi Plus hybrid electric heaters with thermostat control and a modern rounded design. The decorative hybrid heating system for cosy warmth. What's special about the new VASNER wall panel? The combination of infrared radiation and convection technology enables an incomparably fast and efficient temperature increase. The simultaneous heating of the room air paired with gentle, direct heat waves lends the designer radiator dual heating power. The innovative hybrid electric heater with rounded corners is available with a maximum output of 600, 1000 and 1200 watts for room sizes up to 26 m². Via the integrated thermostat dial, the desired temperature can be set comfortably and steplessly and is then maintained automatically by the device. In the rare event of a safe temperature being exceeded, the electric wall heater with thermostat control has an overheating protection. For maximum safety during use. Although the hybrid infrared heating panel comprises two different technologies, it looks surprisingly sleek when mounted on the wall. This is because the radiant heater has a shallow housing depth of just 4,3 cm. This space-saving design is only possible thanks to the innovative heating mat, which is evenly integrated behind the entire surface of the panel. For a quick and easy mounting on the wall, the hybrid infrared heater is delivered with a special bracket. Simply install it in the desired place, plug the integrated power cord combined with a digital thermostat system into a standard household socket and enjoy the dual warmth of your VASNER Konvi Plus hybrid heating panel.

What is the difference between Konvi and Konvi Plus hybrid infrared heating panels?

The difference between the angular Konvi series and the rounded Konvi Plus series is purely visual. In terms of technology, effect and efficiency, both series are completely identical. With regard to heating power, there is no difference between the Konvi and Konvi Plus if the wattage of the compared units is identical.

Note: The 1200 watt version of the Konvi Plus Hybrid infrared heater is not compatible with the Konvi stands. The Konvi metal feet can only be combined with the 600 Watt and 900 Watt Konvi Plus hybrid heaters.

Note: Fixed Connection / Power Plug

• For a permanent connection to the mains, the power plug must be disconnected.
• The warranty of the device remains valid.
• A direct connection of the heater to the mains may only be carried out in accordance with the legal guidelines by means of digital control and by an authorised person (master electrician).

Note:
Maximum efficiency: Approx. 99% of the electrical energy used is converted into thermal output.
The VASNER Konvi Plus is the high-quality and effective heater for additional, cosy radiant warmth in living spaces. To estimate the wattage required to heat each m², please use our online calculator >>

Radiant Efficiency VASNER

The radiant efficiency of our infrared heating panels significantly exceeds the required 40%.

Note from the European Infrared Heating Alliance (EIHA):
Radiant efficiency depends on various influencing factors. These include the size of an infrared panel heater, the type of installation (wall/ceiling), and the test setup in the respective testing institute. The pure percentage value alone is not meaningful without considering these factors.
The radiant efficiency tested according to DIN EN IEC 60675-3 at TU Dresden averages over 50% (wall-mounted) and over 60% (ceiling-mounted). This far exceeds the standard requirement (40%).

The radiation efficiency of VASNER infrared panel heaters was determined by the Technical University of Dresden on behalf of VASNER in accordance with the test guideline DIN EN IEC 60675-3.

Details on the Use of the Infrared Heating Panel

Optional: Automated control via digital thermostat:

• The hybrid infrared panel heater can also be controlled with an electronic thermostat in order to define individual heating programmes.
• If an electronic thermostat is also used, the mechanically integrated thermostat of the heating panel must always be set to the highest level (ON).
• Digital thermostat is not included (see accessories)
• Advantages of programmable thermostats: Automatic temperature change according to time & day, individually programmable + standard heating programs, quick selection settings, frost protection function
• Panel heaters have an open interface, i.e. they are compatible with every thermostat system
• Also ideal for integration into smart home environments
• The heating panel is compatible with thermostats of other manufacturers.
