New Industrial Programmable Thermostat Now Available

Written by: George Evans

Effective temperature control is essential in commercial and industrial buildings, helping to create comfortable working environments while reducing unnecessary energy consumption. The BN Thermic RT16 Programmable Thermostat has been designed to provide accurate, reliable control for a wide range of electric heating systems, making it an ideal solution for warehouses, workshops, sports halls, showrooms and other large commercial spaces. Combining a robust industrial design with intelligent programming features, the RT16 gives building managers and installers a flexible, easy-to-use thermostat that is built to withstand demanding environments.

7-Day Programmable Heating Control

The RT16 is a 7-day programmable thermostat, allowing different heating schedules to be set throughout the week to suit building occupancy. Rather than leaving heaters operating continuously, users can programme heating periods to coincide with working hours, ensuring warmth is available when required while avoiding wasted energy outside of occupied times. This level of control not only improves comfort for building occupants but can also help reduce operating costs by preventing unnecessary heating.

High 16A Switching Capacity

Unlike many standard room thermostats, the RT16 features a 16A switching capacity, enabling it to control larger electric heating loads directly without requiring additional switching equipment in many applications. The thermostat is suitable for controlling a wide range of BN Thermic heating products, including:

  • Industrial fan heaters
  • Longwave radiant heaters
  • Commercial electric heaters
  • Workshop and warehouse heating systems

Its high switching capacity makes it a practical choice for both new installations and replacement projects where dependable control is essential.

Designed for Industrial Environments

The RT16 is housed in a robust die-cast aluminium enclosure, providing excellent durability in demanding commercial and industrial locations. Whether installed in a warehouse, factory, workshop or sports facility, the thermostat is designed to deliver reliable performance in environments where standard domestic controls may not be suitable. Its rugged construction also helps protect the internal electronics from accidental knocks and day-to-day wear.

Flexible Temperature Sensing

One of the RT16’s most useful features is its flexibility when measuring room temperature. The thermostat includes a built-in air temperature sensor for straightforward installations. However, where greater control or security is required, it can also operate using a remote-mounted temperature sensor.

This arrangement is particularly beneficial where tamper-resistant heating control is needed. For example, the remote sensor can be installed within the heated area while the thermostat itself is mounted in a locked plant room, electrical cupboard or adjacent office. This prevents unauthorised adjustment of temperature settings while still ensuring accurate temperature measurement where it matters most.

Ideal for a Wide Range of Applications

Thanks to its combination of programmable control, robust construction and flexible sensing options, the RT16 is suitable for numerous commercial and industrial environments, including:

  • Warehouses
  • Workshops
  • Manufacturing facilities
  • Sports halls
  • Exhibition spaces
  • Retail showrooms
  • Storage buildings
  • Distribution centres

Wherever reliable temperature control is required, the RT16 provides a dependable solution that helps improve comfort while supporting efficient energy management.

Reliable Heating Control from BN Thermic

Choosing the right thermostat is just as important as selecting the right heater. The BN Thermic RT16 Programmable Thermostat offers the durability, flexibility and performance required for modern commercial heating installations. Whether you’re designing a new heating system or upgrading an existing installation, the RT16 provides precise temperature control, flexible programming and industrial-grade reliability to help maximise both comfort and energy efficiency.
