The Fostoria portable electric Salamander provides 51,195 BTU/hr of fan-forced, all electrical heating. This 3 phase, 15 kW portable heater features an onboard thermostat with 40 to 100 degree Fahrenheit adjustment, with a 60 degree temperature rise for air intake. The heater is easily portable, with an easy to grip handle, 10-In. wheels, and safety screens over the intake and output openings to keep the user safe. The heating elements have a finned, tubular design for long service life, and a high-limit thermal cutout switch with automatic reset for added safety. If no heat is needed, the heater can operate on the fan only with the same 800 CFM airflow that’s used for heating.

How The Fostoria 15kW 208V 3-Phase Compares To The 15kW 240V Single Phase

Contractors and facility managers evaluating Fostoria's 15kW electric Salamander usually face this question: should I get the 240V single phase version, or this 208V 3-phase version to match their facility's available power?

Here's the honest comparison:

Feature Fostoria Electric Salamander, 15kW, 240V Single Phase ($2,898) Fostoria Electric Salamander, 15kW, 208V, 3 Phase ($2,898)
BTU Output 51,195 BTU/hr 51,195 BTU/hr, identical heating capacity
Power Requirement 240V, 62.5A single phase circuit 208V, 42A, 3 phase circuit
Amperage 62.5A 42A, lower amperage draw on 3 phase power
Airflow 800 CFM for heating and fan-only settings 800 CFM for heating and fan-only settings
Thermostat Control Onboard thermostat, adjustable 40° to 100°F Onboard thermostat, adjustable temperature control
Heating Elements Finned tubular heating elements designed for long life Finned tubular heating elements designed for long life
Safety Features High-limit thermal cutout switch with automatic reset, safety screens on intake and output High-limit thermal cutout switch with automatic reset, safety screens on intake and output, magnetic contactor for even heating
Portability Easy-grip handle, 10-in. wheels 10-in. diameter wheels and long handle for tilt-and-roll transport
Required Power Cord 4/3 SO power cord, sold separately Cord sold separately, matched to 3 phase 208V connection
Best Suited For Facilities with single phase 240V power available Facilities with 3 phase 208V power already in place

Why The Fostoria 15kW 208V 3-Phase Is Worth The Investment

This isn't just a jobsite heater, it's built to run on 208V 3 phase power at a lower 42A draw than the single phase version's 62.5A, giving contractors and facility managers with existing 3 phase infrastructure a heater that matches their available power without needing a dedicated single phase circuit.

The FES-1520-3A specifically addresses the needs of contractors and facility managers working in buildings, shops, or industrial spaces already wired for 3 phase power who want the same 51,195 BTU/hr of clean electric heat as the single phase model.

Same Heat Output, Matched To Your Power Infrastructure. Delivering the identical 51,195 BTU/hr as the 240V single phase version, this 208V 3 phase unit uses a magnetic contactor to start for even, consistent heating, all while drawing less amperage per phase than a comparable single phase circuit would require.

Built For Reliable, Adjustable Heating

The onboard thermostat offers adjustable temperature control for precise comfort in the space

A 60 degree temperature rise on air intake delivers substantial heating power for cold job sites

Fan-only mode provides consistent airflow even when heat isn't needed

Engineered For Safety And Easy Transport

The high-limit thermal cutout switch with automatic reset protects against overheating

Safety screens on both intake and output openings keep the user protected during operation

Two 10-in. diameter wheels and a long handle let the user tilt, raise, and roll the unit to wherever it's needed

Real Savings

Matching the heater to existing 3 phase infrastructure avoids the cost of installing a dedicated single phase circuit

No propane fuel costs or tank refilling reduces the ongoing fuel expense compared to combustion heaters

Finned tubular heating elements designed for long life reduce the frequency of element replacement

Free shipping and no sales tax through Summit Forge Supply keeps the total cost down compared to buying elsewhere and paying tax and freight separately

The Bottom Line Contractors and facility managers with existing 208V 3 phase power infrastructure can't get a heater matched to that power supply from the standard 240V single phase model. The Fostoria 15kW 208V 3-Phase Electric Salamander is built with the same 51,195 BTU/hr output and reliable safety features as its single phase sibling, wired to run efficiently on 3 phase power. For anyone heating enclosed spaces in a facility already set up for 3 phase electrical service, this is the heater built to match it.


Please Note: This heater must be purchased with a 6/4 SO power cord (GWG311303) to accommodate the heater's amperage. The cord does not include a plug. It can accommodate a suitable NEMA plug or be directly wired, depending on the application and user preference.
