TISSTM
Tube Integrity Safety Shut-Off System
U.S. Patent #8,000,075
Space-Ray’s patented innovative safety feature for positive pressure radiant tube heaters is called the “Tube Integrity Safety System'' (TISS™). The revolutionary TISS™
uses a simple principle to place an electrically insulated aluminum wire in tension above the reflector as shown above.
Low voltage is then continuously passed along the wire in line with the gas control circuit. If heat levels increase due to heat
exchanger failure, the wire melts and the safety circuit is broken, breaking the 24 volt circuit and shutting down the heater.
