Infraconic PILOT Infraconic Pilot 6000 HP / BP Infraconic Pilot 12000 HP / BP Temperature control systems Infrared Gas Brooder with patented infrared pilot burner The best solution for your heating requirements, with gas savings of up to 40%.
Infraconic PILOT Brooders Greater efficiency with major savings on gas The PILOT infrared gas brooder has been designed to offer solutions for energy savings and efficiency, from Kromschroeder s eperience in infrared radiation technology. The PILOT brooder has a patented builtin infrared pilot burner, which ensures the main burner is ignited without needing electrical power supply, avoiding unnecessary gas consumption. Energy savings of up to 40% Field tests prove that the PILOT allows gas savings of up to 40% compared with other radiation or warm air technologies. Early return of the investment Thanks to its increased efficiency and gas savings, the PILOT enables a return of your investment in just 4 or 5 crops. Over 35% reduction in CO2 emissions Our commitment to protect the enviroment is now a material fact, with a reduction in emissions of greenhouse gases of over 35%, producing a cleaner, more environmentally friendly heating system. Automatic operation without needing electrical power supply The brooder is ignited without needing electrical power supply, thanks to its patented infrared pilot burner. You no longer need to switch off the brooders regardless of the outdoor temperature, as the infrared pilot burner s gas consumption is minimal. Larger coverage area per appliance The versions available with capacities of 6 and 12 kw enable an optimum number of appliances to be installed. Minimum installation costs Since they are compatible with the Infraconic series and do not need electricity to operate, installation or replacement costs are minimal. Low maintenance The protection filter is included in the supply, simplifying maintenance of the appliance and prolonging its lifetime. Safety and reliability Thanks to the materials used to make it, its quality and the safety elements (thermoelectrical safety valve and oneway thermal fuse), the PILOT brooder is one of the safest and most reliable on the market. All Infraconic Pilot brooder types are EC type Eamination Certificate. Easier to integrate into automated installations We can offer you a series of centralized or zone temperature control, enabling any kind of farm to be automated easily. Kromschroeder SA has every accessory you could need to install and maintain our PILOT heating brooders: fleihoses, cutoff valves, regulators, gas filters, dust filters, etc.

Temperature control and regulation systems for Infraconic PILOT Brooders The centralized or zone control systems for Infraconic PILOT enable the temperature of the facility to be controlled by a central computer or a climate control. They are equipped with an electrovalve for gas allowing them to be integrated into an automatic ON/OFF control system. Additionally, upon request and in case of electrical power failure, a mechanical thermostatic head is available, which replaces the manual actuator of the control panel.

Infrared Gas Brooders We ve simply copied the principle of the sun The sun gives living creatures heat in the form of infrared electromagnetic waves. These have the particularity that they travel across the air without heating it, affecting the mass of objects, surfaces and living creatures, when they become heat and increases their temperature. Infraconic brooders work on the same principle. Infrared radiation gives an agreeable feeling in the surface of bodies. The indirect effect of radiant heat can be noted by heating of the surrounding surfaces, such as the floor and other objects. The result is an etremely comfortable ambient temperature, which can be achieved with relatively low air temperatures. The mathematical formula epressing the physical correlation between air temperature and radiation temperature is as follows: Considerable energy savings Radiant heat offsets low air temperatures. Because of the lower air temperature, the difference between the interior and the eterior air temperature is considerably reduced, minimizing losses through air renewal to a large etent. Consequently, you save energy and considerably cut your operating costs. With convective heating systems, hot air rises, far away from the area where it is needed. Infrared radiation, however, heats the objects and living creatures it comes into contact with. The air is heated indirectly, upon contact with the hot masses. The heat is therefore transmitted to where it is needed. What s more, the temperature is distributed evenly, thanks to the coneshaped design of the radiant surfaces, producing uniform circles with different comfort levels. The animals can move freely, choosing the most suitable area for their heat requirements. t R = t L + t S Where: t R = resulting temperature t L = air temperature t S = mean radiant temperature This epression tells us that we can obtain the same degree of comfort with different air temperatures. The advantages of Infraconic brooders: High energy efficiency: 30% 40% energy savings compared with conventional systems High quality, durability and comfortable heat Option of partial heating No dust is stirred up or air draughts produced Quick to reach full operating conditions Radiation heating Hot air heating 2000608 (Rev. 109) Avda.
