Infrared Heating Technology transfers large amounts of energy in a short time and heats quickly in a targeted fashion. Because infrared heaters can be individually geometrically matched to a particular application, heating and drying processes can be seamlessly integrated within manufacturing operations. With modern infrared technology, large surface areas as well as small three dimensional work pieces can be heated.

Infrared Heaters allow optimum matching. Infrared heaters are matched to different requirements by the correct selection of wavelength. Short wave IR heaters offer excellent depth of penetration while medium wave infrared heaters rapidly heat the surface and thin layers and feature very high absorption by water films. Medium wave IR heaters are particularly suitable for drying processes. They can show energy savings of over 50% when compared with short wave infrared lamps.

Medium Wave Infrared Heaters – Efficient and economical plastics, water and other solvents absorb medium wave radiation especially well. The use of medium wave infrared heaters helps in the effective drying of paints and lacquers and in the economical processing of plastic foils and sheet. Because of their long life, these IR heaters are best suited for continuous process. Surface films and very thin materials are heated up extremely efficiently. Medium wave infrared heaters are manufactured as twin tubes in three different tube formats and in any required length up to 20 feet. Twin tube IR heaters distinguish themselves by their high stability and power density. In addition, because of a gold coating, the radiation is precisely directed and the efficiency significantly increased. The Infrared heaters can be manufactured in various designs and dimensions to suit all geometrical requirements.

Medium Wave Infrared Heater

* Twin tube emitters of various tube format 18x8 mm, 22x10 mm, 33x15 mm

* Filament temperature 800 – 950 °C

* Peak wavelength 2.4 – 2.7 µm

* Maximum current 8/10/20/A, according to tube format

* Mean power density 16/20/25 W/cm according to tube format

* Maximum surface power 50 kW/m2

* Standard IR heaters are designed for horizontal operation, and are modified for vertical operation.

* Infrared heaters are available in various designs and can be one-side or two-side connected.

* A gold coating of the heater ensures that the effective radiation is virtually doubled.

* Standard, custom and OEM models available

INFRARED HEATERS AND THEIR PROPERTIES - Come to the experts!

Short Wave, Twin Tube Emitters are comparable in spectrum to, and slightly longer in wavelength than halogen infrared lamps.

Fast Response, Medium Wave IR heaters are twin tube heaters with a spectrum between short wave and standard medium wave infrared heaters.

Carbon IR heaters use a carbon ribbon as the heating element.

Medium Wave IR heaters distinguish themselves by being highly efficient and stable while having a long operating life.

Infrared heaters for Targeted Heat are designed to heat small components, part surfaces or curved surfaces.
