Big Round Ceramic Cap

Shortwave Infrared Heater›Shortwave Heating Lamps

Shortwave infrared lamp with big round ceramic caps and a clear quartz tube, made in Chennai. The larger caps give a robust termination and secure mounting in machines designed for big round caps. The tungsten filament reaches about 90 % of its output within a second and converts up to 92 % of the power into infrared radiation, which heats the product directly rather than the air around it. Typical uses are PET preform heating, ink and coating drying, and preheating of plastics. Standard models cover a heated length of 127–1020 mm at 500–3,000 W (see the table below), and lengths can be made to match an original lamp. Gold or white reflector coatings and custom shapes are available on request. To order a replacement, send the overall length, heated length, wattage, voltage and cap type, or the old lamp.
