All heating elements must be IP rated - a system for classifying the degrees of protection provided by the enclosures of electrical equipment. IP stands for ‘Ingress Protection’, followed by two numbers which refer to the level of protection according to where the product is able to be sited within the bathroom.

It is important to install an electric towel rail in the correct bathroom zone i.e. the zone referred to in the IP rating of the element.

Standard element - IP55

Suitable for installation into Zones 1 and 2 of the bathroom for non high pressure water jet applications.

Manufactured in accordance with: EN60335-1 / BS EN ISO 9001

Each standard element contains an internal preset over temperature switch and fail safe fuse. There is no thermostatic control with this element although a suitably rated rheostat (CD-VR) will give thermal control when fitted into the electrical supply circuit.

All heating elements are CE approved.
