Heating of a production facility in Mykolaiv

Mykolaiv is one of Ukraine's important industrial centers, home to enterprises in mechanical engineering, shipbuilding, metalworking, and other industries. For such facilities, a heating system must take into account not only the size of the premises, but also ceiling height, production processes, the location of work areas, and operating conditions.

In 2014, Teplov implemented a heating project for a production facility of SE NPKG “Zorya-Mashproekt” in Mykolaiv. Long-wave infrared heating was selected for the facility.

This project became one of the examples of Teplov infrared heaters being used in industrial conditions.

The task: providing heating for a production facility

Production facilities have specific characteristics that must be considered when designing a heating system. A large internal volume, high ceilings, and a significant floor area can make conventional air heating less efficient when it comes to maintaining a comfortable temperature in the working zone.

A heating system for a production facility must solve several tasks:

• provide a comfortable thermal environment for employees;
• take the installation height of the equipment into account;
• preserve valuable floor space;
• avoid interfering with production processes;
• ensure reliable long-term operation;
• adapt the heating system to the specific requirements of the enterprise.

Therefore, for large industrial facilities, it is important to select not simply powerful equipment, but a properly designed industrial heating system.

The solution — long-wave infrared heating

Long-wave infrared Teplov heaters were used for the facility in Mykolaiv.

Unlike systems that primarily operate by heating and circulating air, infrared radiation transfers thermal energy to surfaces and objects within the heater's operating zone. This operating principle makes the equipment well suited to premises with high ceilings.

Ceiling height is one of the factors that must be considered when selecting a heating system for a production facility. Infrared heaters can be installed in the upper part of the building without taking up valuable working space.

More information about solutions for industrial heating is available in the relevant section of the Teplov website.

Why infrared heating is suitable for industrial facilities

For an industrial enterprise, it is important that heating equipment does not interfere with employees or production processes.

Ceiling-mounted infrared heaters keep the floor area of a production facility free. The equipment does not require radiators to be installed along the walls and does not interfere with the placement of machinery, shelving, or other production equipment.

Another advantage is the possibility of creating individual heating zones. Different areas of an industrial facility may not be used in the same way throughout a working shift. Therefore, when designing the system, it is important to consider the location of workstations and the actual operating conditions.

Ceiling heaters for production facilities

Ceiling installation is particularly practical for industrial facilities. Ceiling heaters from Teplov do not occupy valuable floor space and can be positioned above areas where additional heat is required.

The product range includes equipment with different power ratings, allowing solutions to be selected according to the size and height of the premises and its thermal characteristics.

At the same time, the number of heaters, their power, and installation layout should be determined individually. For production facilities, it is not enough to consider floor area alone — ceiling height, insulation, gates, windows, operating schedule, and other factors must also be taken into account.

Project result

The project at SE NPKG “Zorya-Mashproekt” in Mykolaiv demonstrated the possibility of using long-wave infrared heating in a large industrial enterprise.

The selected solution made it possible to install the heating equipment in the upper part of the premises without occupying valuable working space.

This facility is one of the examples of Teplov equipment being used for heating production facilities.

Teplov's experience in industrial heating

The Mykolaiv project is not the only example of infrared heating being used at industrial facilities.

Teplov has experience implementing heating solutions for production workshops, warehouses, logistics facilities, and other industrial premises.

Completed projects include heating systems for Amitell, Biltex, Dalis Automotive Group, the Kharkiv Hosiery Factory, and other facilities.

How to choose heating for a production facility

The heating system for each enterprise should be selected according to its specific operating conditions.

The main factors include:

• floor area and ceiling height;
• building insulation;
• number of gates and door openings;
• window area;
• required indoor temperature;
• operating schedule;
• location of workstations;
• need for zonal heating.

Therefore, before installing the equipment, it is advisable to carry out a thermal calculation and determine the required system capacity.

Teplov industrial heating — real experience, not just theory

The project in Mykolaiv, completed in 2014, is an example of the long-term practical use of infrared heating at a production enterprise.

For industrial facilities, it is important to evaluate the system not only by the specifications of an individual heater, but as a complete solution — from thermal calculations and power selection to equipment placement and zoning.

If you need heating for a production workshop, warehouse, hangar, or other industrial facility, Teplov specialists can help select the equipment and calculate the system according to the specific characteristics of the facility
