Abstract
A portable compressed air heating system for delivering a flow of heated air directed at a substrate. The system first includes a hot air distribution member for placement in juxtaposition with the substrate and thereafter distributing heated air collected from a heater module. Second, the system includes a heater module for receiving and heating a continuous volume of air, and is equipped with an adjustable velocity production element for drawing and delivering heated air to the hot air distribution member. An interface conduit connects the heater module to a system controller disposed upstream therefrom, and includes circuitry directed by the controller for operation of the heating module. The system controller includes an air-in port for receiving air, an air-out port for distributing air, a heater-power conduit, a temperature controller, an air pressure monitor, and an air pressure adjuster.
