Production and Coating Process
Panel radiators are produced on fully automated, ultra-modern lines. They may be inspected at anytime during the production process. The water tightness of each radiator is individually tested at the end of the production line.
Radiators are coated in a modern facility specially designed to protect the environment.
Pre-Treatment
Pre-treatment of radiators consists of degreasing and hosphating. In combination with the base coat, the phosphate layer provides excellent rust protection. After pre-treatment, the radiators are rinsed with deionised water.
Coating
This process consists of 2 main stages. First, the radiators are immersed in a 2nd generation KTL bath to cover them with a layer of anti-rust base by means of cataphoresis. They are then dried in hot air at a temperature of around 175oC. The final coat is then applied. This powder coat of epoxy polyester is applied to the radiators by electrophoresis. The powder coating is then heated at a temperature of almost 136oC. Outstandingly hard and stable the finishing coat is resistant to scratches, moisture and acids and complies with DIN 55900 and EN 442 standards.
Colours
Standard colour is RAL 9016.
Heat Output
Heat outputs were measured according to the EN 442 standard, with a water temperature of 75/65oC and a room temperature of 20oC (delta T=50).
Packaging
The radiators are protected with cardboard, including corner edge protections. The radiators are shrink-wrapped. The radiator can remain inside the packaging until installation is complete, to prevent any damage. The entire packaging is recyclable.
