- Anthracite RAL 7016
A tailored proposal for your space, finish and installation.
Comfort where you work
A cold floor can make a workplace unpleasant even when the room is at temperature. ST desk heating is fixed beneath the desktop and radiates warmth downwards. The compact panel remains outside the working surface on the desk. The ST0100 panel has an output of 100 watts and measures 30 × 60 cm. Set heat output with the continuously adjustable in-line dimmer.
Installation and controls belong together
The housing has integrated fixing brackets and ventilation slots. With the intended installation, front temperature is around 75 °C and desk-side temperature a maximum of approximately 40 °C. Use your model’s instructions for clearances and fixings. Suitable temperature controls match heating to working hours and comfort. We check which combination suits your panel and connection.

Choose desk warmth based on your working posture
A desk mat and Welltherm ST0100 have different practical roles. A mat lies on the working surface; ST0100 is a specific panel for local warmth at the desk. Therefore assess where you want extra comfort, available movement space and mounting suitable for your desk. ST0100 in our catalogue has an output of 100 watts, measures 30 × 60 centimetres and weighs 3.8 kilograms. A large wall panel is not an automatic replacement for this application.
ST0100 has a Schuko plug and continuously adjustable in-line dimmer. These set local heat level; that differs from automatically controlling the entire room temperature. For a sit-stand desk, the cable route must fit every position and the dimmer remain accessible. Send an underside photo, clear dimensions and comfort preferences for advice. Read our guide to Welltherm beneath the desk for the complete assessment.
Choose Welltherm infrared desk heating for your workplace
Welltherm infrared desk heating is intended for targeted warmth where you work. ST0100 is used beneath the desktop and directs warmth towards the footwell. The panel therefore has a different task from large wall heating for the entire room. First describe where you want extra comfort: beneath the desk, at a cold floor or throughout the study. Those answers lead to different product and capacity choices.

A room thermostat measures air conditions at its own position. This does not precisely describe how you experience a workplace beside a window or above a cold floor. Draughts, clothing, activity and sitting duration also matter. Observe the workplace during an ordinary working day and note when you want extra warmth. Use this information to clarify the supplementary function without treating desk heating as a solution to every possible cause of cold.
At one home workspace, a personally adjustable heat setting may be pleasant. In a shared office, also understand how different staff use the existing room temperature. A local panel can support an individual comfort preference while general heating retains its original task. Discuss the whole room’s use before changing an existing setting for everyone. The same appliance does not automatically give the same result at different desks.
Preparation starts with the desk, chair and available space. A product fits not merely because it is smaller than the desktop. Normal seating position, drawer units and cable trays also determine where warmth can be useful. Therefore send both an underside photo and a photo of normal working posture. We can assess the application based on where the panel is actually used.
Identify ST0100 as a specific version
The current ST0100 has an output of 100 watts and panel dimensions of 30 by 60 centimetres. Weight is 3.8 kilograms. Colour is anthracite grey RAL 7016 and protection rating IP21. These details belong to this desk product. They are not derived solely from the name infrared panel or used as general characteristics of another panel someone wants to put beneath a desk.
The connection consists of a 1850-millimetre black cable, Schuko plug and continuously adjustable in-line dimmer. This differs from various flat Welltherm panels with the current precon connection. Therefore use ST0100 specifications when preparing the connection point and controls. A connection concept’s name is no reason to reinterpret the actual supplied plug or cable in a photo.
Older documentation may contain another ST version or protection designation. For existing desk heating, we therefore ask for the full article number and purchase or rating plate details. The current choice on this page is ST0100. For replacement or extension, we check which version is present. An older product is not considered equivalent to the current one without further assessment.

ESHC Plus technology forms part of the panel version. Specific installation then remains decisive for the workplace. The product has fixing brackets and ventilation provisions designed for the intended application. That construction must be used according to the instructions. A compact wall panel with another output is not an automatic substitute because surface temperature, fixings and permitted clearances may differ.
Inspect the space beneath the desk carefully
Measure the clear space beneath the top and state where the frame, cross members and drawer units are. Also leave room for installation and prescribed clearances. A desktop with the same overall size but a different frame may have a very different usable mounting zone. For custom furniture, photographing the underside with a measuring tape is therefore useful.
The substrate must safely support the fixings and product weight. A thin finish or unsuitable screws do not become appropriate because the panel has only 100 watts. Have fixings assessed for the specific desk material and follow model instructions. For an unusual table, delicate veneer or rented workplace, discuss installation with the responsible person beforehand.

Assess positioning while sitting and moving normally. Your legs must retain space when moving in, moving backwards and standing up. The panel is not a footrest or a place for clothing to rest against. Also consider loose bags, bins and equipment beneath the table. Those objects must not cover the heating surface or intended ventilation space.
Our surface temperature information describes the intended arrangement. It does not guarantee every desktop material remains at the same temperature at every distance. Required ventilation and clear space remain part of installation. Ensure the construction is not enclosed by your own modifications. A carefully chosen position supports the practical heating function and also makes the appliance accessible for checks later.
A sit-stand desk needs a complete movement test
On an adjustable desk, the top moves relative to the floor and socket. Therefore check the cable route in the lowest and highest positions used and throughout adjustment. The cable must not be pulled taut or enter moving parts. Also consider other cable routes so the heating cable is not inadvertently caught by a bundle or mechanism.
Standing changes the distance to legs and feet. Perceived warmth can therefore differ from sitting. A lift mechanism does not automatically make ST0100 suitable for every sit-stand application. Provide the desk type, heights used and desired supplementary heating times. We assess the application together with the available installation zone and normal use.

The in-line dimmer must remain accessible during normal use. At another desktop height, you want the same operating routine without reaching beneath the desk to a hot or difficult location. In the enquiry, describe where the user can position the dimmer according to product conditions. This involves not just sufficient cable length but movement and accessibility of the complete arrangement.
Repeat the check after workplace changes. An additional monitor arm, drawer or cable tray can occupy previously clear space. Moving the desk also changes the route to the connection point. Therefore keep the original mounting details and assess additions against the same clearances. Panel conditions remain applicable when the layout is made more convenient for other work later.
Heat settings and working hours as a personal routine
Set local heat level with the continuously adjustable in-line dimmer. Begin with a setting pleasant for your distance and posture, then assess whether adjustment is needed. The dimmer does not independently determine room temperature or notice you leaving the workplace. Therefore make switching on, breaks and switching off part of your normal working routine.

Additional temperature controls are assessed as a suitable combination for this panel and connection. An existing central heating thermostat or arbitrary dimmer does not automatically form part of the same installation. Describe what you want beforehand: manual extra warmth only, fixed working times or another operating function. That preference is linked to technical possibilities so selected components have a clear task.
The panel and area beneath the desk have a warm-up time. Do not expect the same warmth from the first second after activation. A cold floor, different starting temperature or longer distance can change the experienced result. Use the initial period to learn the heat setting and normal usage times. A clear daily routine gives more insight than choosing the highest setting whenever the workspace briefly feels cool.
At a shared workplace, keep operation understandable for the next user. Define briefly how the normal setting is chosen and that the arrangement is switched off after use according to instructions. If several desks use the same electrical supply, have that total load assessed too. Every desk heater remains a separate local addition within the office’s broader usage.
Distinguish desk warmth and total energy costs
ST0100’s nominal power is 0.1 kilowatts. One hour of continuous use at that power equals 0.1 kilowatt-hours; four hours equals 0.4 kilowatt-hours. This example describes capacity and operating time, not complete office consumption. For personal costs, multiply measured or calculated usage by your energy contract’s tariff. The dimming level and actual usage hours may affect the result.
In an office with several workplaces, each appliance’s usage hours matter. Take five desk panels solely as an illustration: combined nominal output is 500 watts when all heat simultaneously at nominal power. Actual usage depends on occupancy and operation. Therefore make an overview of desks used and hours rather than treating staff quantity directly as a fixed daily operating time.
Solar panels on a roof can contribute when production and desk usage coincide. This does not mean a winter working day is always fully covered by your own electricity. Consider actual production, ordinary office routines and contract terms. Our guide to Welltherm consumption explains the calculation principle further. This keeps comparison focused on the function for which you choose the desk panel.

A cost comparison also includes general heating. If you only add desk warmth and keep other installations unchanged, electricity consumption is added. If general settings change, assess the complete situation and other occupants’ comfort. Low wattage alone therefore does not prove the total energy bill falls. Compare the same working function under similar conditions.
Have a desk arrangement assessed and supported
For a desk beside a frequently opened external door, we also consider airflow during work. A heat source beneath the top does not change draughts along that route. Note when the door opens and whether cooler conditions also affect other workstations. A layout change or draught sealing may then be relevant alongside local desk warmth. Desired comfort is related to causes at that specific location without using a higher dimming level as the only solution.
A good enquiry shows the workplace from the user’s perspective and underneath. Add clear dimensions, desk material and the route to the connection point. Explain whether this is a home workspace, shared desk or adjustable top. Also specify what existing heating does and when extra comfort is wanted. We can then discuss ST0100’s local task practically and technically.

After installation, keep fixings, cable and controls in good condition. Clean according to product instructions and let the panel cool beforehand. Retain article details with purchase information and describe unusual results using the actual arrangement and settings. A service enquiry can then be linked to the correct appliance. Infrared desk heating is thus a specific local warmth choice with a prepared position and understandable usage.
