How It Compares

How The Fostoria 15kW 480V 3-Phase Compares To Other 15kW Salamander Configurations

Contractors and facility managers evaluating Fostoria's 15kW electric Salamander lineup usually face this question: should I get the 240V single phase version, one of the 3-phase versions at 208V or 240V, or this 480V 3-phase version for the lowest possible amperage draw?

Product Description

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.

Please Note: This heater must be purchased with a 12/4 SO power cord (GWG311307) 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.
