Shortwave Infrared Lamp with Carbon Filaments
Infrared lamp with a carbon filament, made in Chennai. The carbon filament emits effective medium-wave radiation and responds within seconds, combining the absorption of medium wave with the controllability of a fast emitter. It is well suited to drying water-based paints, inks and adhesives, to textile and paper drying and to preheating plastics. Lamps are available in the standard carbon heater lengths of 127 to 635 mm heated length (500 to 2,500 W) and in custom shapes. To order a replacement, send the overall length, heated length, wattage, voltage and cap type, or the old lamp.
