How can the surface temperature of the ceramic material in PELONIS ceramic heating appliances be greater than other space heaters but also less than the burning point of paper?
The ceramic properties make PELONIS heating appliances very safe. The ignition or flash point of tissue paper is at about 453 degrees Fahrenheit, yet the surface temperature of our ceramic material is much lower than that. This safety factor can be tested very easily. Try placing a piece of tissue paper on the ceramic material while your model is operating. You will notice that the resulting contact of the paper to the ceramic surface will not cause the paper to ignite. If you were to do the same thing to a glowing coil heater, the paper would most likely burn up.
