FOSTORIA

Fostoria is a manufacturer of industrial electric heating equipment with a product history dating to the early 20th century. The brand is known for infrared radiant heaters, tubular heaters, and portable jobsite heating units used in industrial, commercial, and construction environments. Fostoria heaters are commonly specified where directed, localized heat is required without heating the entire space, and where electric power is the available energy source. The product families include portable infrared radiant heaters, overhead infrared fixtures, quartz tube and quartz lamp emitters, flat panel emitters, and metal-sheath tubular elements. These are used in applications such as freeze protection, spot heating for personnel, snow and ice melting, process heating, and curing. Fostoria infrared heaters are available in wattages from approximately 1,450 W to 9,550 W, with voltages including 120 V AC, 240 V AC, and 480 V AC, in single-phase and three-phase configurations. Mounting options include vertical and horizontal burn positions, and portable units are supplied with steel stands, carts, or casters. Connection types include NEMA 5-15P plugs for lower-wattage portable models and hardwired configurations with electrical enclosures for higher-wattage units. Beam patterns such as 60° are available on certain models to direct radiant energy over a defined area. Element types include quartz tubes, quartz lamps, and flat panel emitters, each with different thermal response and mounting characteristics. 3G Electric supplies the Fostoria line as part of its industrial equipment catalog, offering 321 SKUs across infrared, tubular, and portable heater categories. The catalog includes specification data such as wattage, voltage, phase, plug type, element type, mounting position, and included accessories, allowing plant engineers and maintenance managers to match heaters to available power and application requirements. 3G Electric supports the Fostoria line with product data, cross-referencing, and quotation services for buyers specifying replacement or new installations. The brand's heaters are used in industrial facilities, warehouses, loading docks, maintenance shops, and construction sites where temporary or permanent spot heating is needed. Fostoria electric heaters are designed for indoor and outdoor use depending on the model, with construction features such as steel housings, reflectors, and guards. The product range includes both fixed and portable configurations, with portable models intended for job sites and garages where mobility and quick setup are required. For technical buyers, the key selection criteria are available voltage and phase, required heat output, mounting orientation, and connection method. 3G Electric provides access to the Fostoria catalog with detailed specifications to support these decisions.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about FOSTORIA from 3G Electric.

What wattages and voltages are available in Fostoria portable infrared radiant heaters?

Fostoria portable infrared radiant heaters in the 3G Electric catalog range from 1,450 W to 9,550 W. Voltage options include 120 V AC, 240 V AC, and 480 V AC. Phase configurations include single-phase and three-phase, with some models supporting both 1 or 3 phase operation. Lower-wattage models such as the FSP-1412-1C (1,450 W, 120 V AC) use a NEMA 5-15P plug, while higher-wattage units like the P95-FSP-3 (9,550 W, 480 V AC) are hardwired and include an electrical enclosure. Selection depends on the available power supply and the required heat output for the application.

What is the difference between quartz lamp, quartz tube, and flat panel emitter elements in Fostoria heaters?

Fostoria infrared heaters use different emitter types depending on the model. Quartz lamp elements, used in models such as the HP-5-QT and HP-6-QT, provide rapid heat-up and are often found in portable units. Quartz tube elements, as in the PCH-48C, offer similar performance in a tubular form. Flat panel emitters, used in models like the H43-FSP-3 and H95-FSP-3, provide a broader radiant surface and are typically used in higher-wattage portable and stationary heaters. Each element type has different thermal response, mounting considerations, and beam characteristics. The choice depends on the application's need for fast response versus broad coverage.

Are Fostoria portable infrared heaters suitable for outdoor use?

Fostoria portable infrared radiant heaters are commonly used in jobsite and garage environments, which may include semi-outdoor or unheated spaces. However, suitability for outdoor use depends on the specific model's construction and rating. Models with steel stands, carts, or casters and enclosed electrical connections are intended for rugged environments. For fully exposed outdoor locations, additional protection or specific model selection may be required. Buyers should review the individual product specifications for environmental ratings and consult 3G Electric for guidance on model selection based on the installation conditions.

What mounting positions are available for Fostoria infrared heaters?

Fostoria infrared heaters are available with different mounting position specifications. Portable models in the catalog list vertical burn, horizontal burn, or both. For example, the FSP-1412-1C specifies vertical mounting, while the PCH-48C specifies horizontal burn mounting. The H43-FSP-3 and H95-FSP-3 list vertical burn mounting. Mounting position affects the direction of radiant heat and the area covered. Fixed overhead and tubular heaters may have different mounting requirements. Buyers should match the mounting position to the physical space and the target area for heating.

What accessories are included with Fostoria portable heaters?

Fostoria portable infrared radiant heaters in the 3G Electric catalog include various accessories depending on the model. Common inclusions are steel stands, steel carts, steel casters, electrical enclosures, and tip-over switches. For example, the FSP-1412-1C includes a steel stand, the HP-5-QT and HP-6-QT include steel casters, the H43-FSP-3 and H95-FSP-3 include a steel cart, and the PCH-48C includes a tip-over switch. Higher-wattage hardwired models such as the P95-FSP-3 and P65-FSP-3 include an electrical enclosure. These accessories support safe and stable operation in jobsite and garage environments.
