Double Gold Coated and Rectangular Cap
Double gold coated shortwave infrared lamp with rectangular ceramic caps, made in Chennai. The gold reflector concentrates the radiation onto the product and reduces heat loss towards the back of the heater, for efficient one-sided heating in curing, drying and preheating. Gold coating suits tube temperatures up to about 600 °C. Reflector angles of 180°, 270° or a custom angle can be supplied. The same lengths and ratings as our uncoated lamps are available, and lengths can be made to match an original lamp. To order a replacement, send the overall length, heated length, wattage, voltage and cap type, or the old lamp.
