Quartz infrared panels provide infrared radiation in medium wave length rang of 1,4 and 5,6 µm. They are favoured in industrial applications where rapid heat responce is necessary. They most cost effective in systems with longe heat off cycles as they reach operating temperature in a matter of seconds. 

They have a recommended radiation distance of 100-200 mm. The heaters can be installed in refectors, projectors or panel for improved efficiency. In moving heater arrangements the elements should be fitted with tubes at right angles to the direction of travelling.

General characteristics

The quartz infrared panels are composed of:

• Iron-Chrome aluminium resistance wire
• Parallel translucent quartz tubes
• Chrome-plated steel protective grill to prevent accidental contact with the heating element.
• Highly reflective aluminised steel body that ensures a low loss of radiation from the back side of the heater
• Two M5 x 30 mm screws which extend from the rear of the heater
• Element dimensions and design can be adjusted to suit customer heating requirements
• Quartz elements can also be supplied with a built in type K thermocouple
• Standard voltage ~230 V
