Product Summary

The Cata-Dyne™ MKII Series infrared gas catalytic explosion-proof heaters are the industry standard for hazardous location heating needs. These are the heaters of choice for many of our customers who have come to trust their reliability. Our Cata-Dyne™ MKII Series explosion-proof catalytic heater has sleek side mount controls ideal for customers seeking to reduce costs with easier and quicker heater installation. The Industry Standard - Cata-Dyne™ heaters boast the most efficient conversion of hydrocarbon fuels to infrared energy compared to any competitive brand on the market today, with over a quarter of a million units in service during our 40-year history and an exceptional safety record. Designed for both hazardous and non-hazardous applications, Cata-Dyne™ is the benchmark in innovation for space or spot heating. Customer Care - Thermon's state-of-the-art, 105,000 square foot, Edmonton manufacturing facility is designed to ensure our worldwide customer base of the most efficient explosion-proof and general-purpose infrared gas catalytic heaters and heating systems for use in industrial heating. We are the only fully integrated infrared gas catalytic manufacturing plant in the world, sharing our unique technology and manufacturing techniques with three other manufacturing facilities. This enables us to exert greater quality control over our product lines and allows us to respond quickly to our customer’s special heating application needs. Every premium heater manufactured by Thermon Inc undergoes stringent safety and performance testing in accordance with all applicable Safety Certification standards including CSA and FM. Our ongoing commitment to the safety and well-being of our customers includes free product safety instruction sessions by our field sales professionals covering everything from an overview of basic infrared technology to detailed explanations of how our unique Cata-Dyne™ catalytic technology works. Infrared Technology -
  • Infrared is smart. it heats only what needs to be heated: personnel or equipment within a facility, not the surrounding air.
  • Infrared is direct. it takes less time and energy to do the job.
  • Infrared is versatile. it handles a large variety of process and space-heating applications.
  • Infrared is environmentally friendly. it helps surpass today’s ever-tightening standards.

    Features + Benefits

    • Applications: The Cata-Dyne™ MKII Series heaters are used in many different applications that involve spot or space heating where hazardous materials may be present. These include Comfort heating for industrial buildings and installations, Freeze protection for equipment or components, Drying or curing processes
    • Certifications: The Cata-Dyne™ MKII Series explosion-proof catalytic heater is approved for the following: Canadian Standards Association (CSA) for use in Class I, Division 1 & 2, Group D hazardous locations, Factory Mutual (FM) for use in Class I, Division 1, Group D hazardous locations. Temperature code T2C at an ambient temperature of 40°C (104°F) See TABLE 3 on page 14 for fuel & electrical ratings
    • Heater box constructed of 300 series stainless steel for corrosion protection
    • Cata-Dyne™ proprietary explosion-proof catalyst pad.
    • Standard 3/8” NPT gas connections
    • Cata-Dyne™ heaters are designed to operate on either natural gas or propane
    • Cata-Dyne™ heaters do not require electrical power to operate once they have been started
    • Our QuikSTART heater technology reaches the catalytic threshold faster, bringing the heater to full operating temperature in half the time
    • Shorter thermocouple is nickel plated with an added polymer sleeve to enhance the corrosion protection for a stronger electromagnetic connection to the safety shut-off valve (SSOV)
    • All gas control components as well as all electrical connections are side mounted for easy installation and access
    • Side-mounted rating plate for easy visibility
    • Single start-up element with the same power and wattage rating as used in the standard WX heaters dual elements
    • Heater contains no moving parts and is designed to operate indefinitely when supplied with air and clean fuel
    • Internal heater components such as our proprietary catalyst pad and preheat Caloritech™ tubular element are manufactured in-house
    • Space Heating: A separate heat load calculation should be done for each building in which a Cata?Dyne™ heater will be installed for space heating purposes.
    • Space Heating: The heat load calculation determines the building heat losses through the structure and allows for air infiltration. For sample Heat Load Calculation, visit: www.thermon.com.
    • Cata?Dyne™ heaters produce low intensity infrared heat that is absorbed by objects within the range of the heat source. The closer the object is to the source of heat the more heat the object will absorb. Cata?Dyne™ heaters should be placed close to the floor level within the building to heat objects close to the floor.
    • Ideally, Cata?Dyne™ heaters should be mounted 1 ft to 3 ft (0.3 m to 1 m) from the floor and equally spaced around the building perimeter for space heating applications.
    • If low mounting is not practical, then overhead mounting may be utilized. Overhead mounted heaters should be sloped face down to a maximum 45° angle to direct the infrared energy towards the floor. Overhead mounting should be restricted to heaters of 30,000 Btu/hr (8.8 kW) capacity and larger.
    • If the building requires only one heater, place the Cata?Dyne™ heater as close as possible to the center of the longest wall.
