Top performance. Easy to use.

Zehnder ZIP radiant ceiling panel

The Zehnder ZIP ceiling radiant panel is a lightweight ceiling-mounted system that provides rapid heating for industrial buildings and is easy to retrofit. Its user-friendly design ensures efficient heating and cooling from the ceiling. Ideal for production halls, workshops, sports halls or retail spaces – delivering high performance and a fast response time for perfect temperatures all year round.

Top performance

Radiant heating for indoor spaces – comfortable, draught-free and energy-efficient

Warm in winter, cool in summer.

Thanks to radiant heat, the Zehnder ZIP ceiling radiant panel heats people and objects in the room directly, rather than the air.
This means: pleasant warmth without draughts and an air temperature that feels 3 °C lower than it actually is – for greater comfort and lower energy costs. Even when cooling, the air temperature remains unchanged, whilst the heat is effectively absorbed.

The Zehnder ZIP radiant ceiling panel can be used regardless of the energy source and, when operated with heat pumps, saves up to 40% energy compared to conventional air heaters.

Ease of use

Easy to use thanks to the lightweight radiant panel

The Zehnder ZIP radiant ceiling panel makes planning and installation a breeze:

  • Standardised headers
  • Easy integration thanks to a fixed width of 320 mm and 5 lengths
  • Fewer mounting points thanks to multi-suspension axes, saving time and materials
  • No welding required as the panels are connected quickly and easily using press or screw fittings
Simple retrofitting

Retrofitting ceiling heating – ideal for existing buildings with low load-bearing capacities

Weighing just 14.3 kg/m² and with a standard width of 320 mm, the Zehnder ZIP radiant ceiling panel is specifically designed for retrofitting in existing buildings. Roofs with low load-bearing capacities are no obstacle – thanks to multi-suspension axes, the Zehnder ZIP radiant ceiling panel can be installed with significantly fewer mounting points than conventional systems. Integration into existing infrastructure, such as lighting or sprinkler systems, is straightforward.

Reliable operation thanks to a host of benefits

Corrosion-free

Zehnder radiant ceiling panels are fully galvanised and therefore offer optimum protection against corrosion – even in conditions of high humidity and temperature fluctuations. This ensures a long service life and reliable operation in demanding environments.

Maintenance-free

Our radiant ceiling panels are maintenance-free, which means that no regular servicing is required and there are no additional costs.
This ensures that your day-to-day operations run smoothly without any disruptions.

Energy-efficient

Thanks to the factory-fitted insulation, a consistently high heating output is guaranteed. On cold days, the desired radiant heat is directed specifically towards the floor, where the hall’s users are located. This creates a pleasantly warm indoor climate with minimal energy loss

Design principles: Efficient planning for optimum performance

The heating load of the room is calculated in accordance with the applicable standard. If the air change rate in a room exceeds the standard level of natural ventilation (max. 1 per hour), particularly in the case of extraction systems, the replacement air must be preheated. Radiant heaters alone cannot prevent cold air ingress at doors or in loading areas. In such cases, measures such as strip curtains, air curtains or similar must be employed.

Example of design and layout

Objective

  • Uniform indoor temperature (18 °C) throughout the entire room
  • Specifications
  • Detached hall: length 50 m, width 20 m, height 8 m
  • Air change rate: 0.3 per hour
  • Outside temperature: -8 °C

Heating load

  • Standard transmission heat loss: 20,000 W
  • Standard ventilation heat loss: 21,000 W
  • Standard heat loss: 41,000 W

Design of the radiant ceiling panels

  • Flow temperature: 45 °C
  • Return temperature: 35 °C

Layout

Five bands of radiant panels arranged lengthwise, divided in the middle, with a uniform centre-to-centre distance of 7.2 m; outer bands larger than inner ones

One band on each end, divided; distance between the bands and the external walls 1.5 m
