Short wave quartz infrared heaters are used in various industrial applications. It contains tungsten filament, helically wound, encased in quartz envelope. Tungsten as resistive element is capable of generating temperature in excess of 2750° C. Its response time is very rapid in 1 second it emits over 90% of IR energy. It is by products free & pollution free. Heat focus is very accurate due to compact and narrow diameter of IR tubes. Short wave IR element has maximum heating rate of 200W/inch. The quartz envelope allows transmission of IR energy and protecting the filament from convective cooling and corrosion. Addition of small percentage of halogen gas in it not only increases life of emitter but also protects blackening of tube and depreciation on infrared energy. The rated life of short wave infrared heater is around 5000 Hours.
Features
- Shortwave Infrared Heater is a high efficiency heating radiator that can heat up to 900 °C and cool down in seconds. It is made of high purity of quartz tube and Tungsten wire, filling with halogen gases inside the tube to protect tungsten wire and avoid filament oxidation when working
- The emitted radiation of the lamps is much more effective than other heat transmission methods such as convection or conduction heating. Objects or their surfaces can be heated up from rather distant light source even through a glass window. Instant Radiation from the Lamp allows Fast & Flexible Thermal Processes
- The color temperature of shortwave quartz infrared heater is around 2400 to 2500°K.The IR wavelength of the of the Shortwave Infrared Heaters radiation emission is between 1 to 2 μ
- Available in different variations from customized Heating Lengths, Power, End Connections, Reflector Coatings and Shapes as well
