Depending on the type of material to be heated, the optimal wavelength is required to achieve a high degree of efficiency. For this reason, we offer IR-heaters with different emission maxima and different dimensions, geometries and shapes in our product portfolio. Their wavelength ranges from 1.0 µm to 5.0 µm. (NIR-MIR)

Technology
The IR radiator module consists of one or more inner IR-radiators, the IR-radiation emitters, an inner metallic reflector and an outer quartz cladding tube. We refer to this as a multi-chamber system.
The IR inner-radiator consists of a heating coil made of high temperature resistant metals, the most suitable atmosphere for this purpose and quartz glass as a protective cover. This heating coil or heating tape is heated by electrical energy and emits radiation in the infrared range with emission maxima of 1.0 μm to 2.8μm. The efficiency of the conversion of electrical energy to IR radiation energy is up to 90%.
The secondary chamber contains one or more internal IR emitters which, together with the optional reflector, is fused into an outer shell of quartz glass. This secondary chamber also contains the most suitable special atmosphere for this.
The purity of the materials used, high vacuum technology and the choice of the most suitable atmospheres in the respective chambers, combined with the multi-chamber system, enable us to achieve the exceptionally durability. The results are reliability, saving of resources and costs for maintenance.
The individual adjustment of the heating length, the heating power and the emission maximum to the material to be heated saves energy and time.
With the help of a specially shaped, integrated reflector, the emitted IR-radiation hits the spot where it is needed.
The short-wave IR-radiator takes approx. 1 second to reach its operating state. If the IR- heater is only operated when heat is needed, high savings of electrical energy are guaranteed.
Due to the possible infinitely variable control from 0-100%, the emission maximum and the power of the IR radiant heater can be optimally adjusted to the heating task, if required.
For materials of different sizes to be heated, the heating zone required at the time can be freely selected, if possible, by means of switchable heating zones with an IR radiant heater.
With possible power densities of up to 150W/cm, related to the heating zone of the IR radiant heater, the highest energy density is generated in the smallest space. We offer radiant heater lengths of up to 2 metres in various designs.
By converting electrical energy into IR- radiation energy, IR-heaters are emission-free. The emitted IR radiation energy is transferred to the material to be heated without contact and converted into heat by absorption directly in the material to be heated.
The hermetically sealed multi-chamber system ensures that the integrated reflector and the Infrared heating elements are protected from external influences such as dust or scratches.
This also makes the IR radiation module ideally suited for cleanrooms.

Technology
The medium-wave IR radiant heater consists of one or multiple heating coils, the Infrared heating elements and an outer quartz cladding tube.
This heating coil is heated by means of electrical energy and emits radiation in the infrared range with emission maxima of 2.2 μm to 5.0 μm.
By properly dimensioning the heating coil, using high-purity materials and treating them appropriately, we achieve a long service life. The results are reliability, saving of resources and costs for maintenance.
The individual adaptation of the heating length, the heating power, the emission maximum and the geometry to the material to be heated saves energy.
With the help of an attached gold reflector, the emitted IR-radiation hits the spot where it is needed. Alternatively, a specially shaped external reflector can be used.
The switch-on time of the medium-wave IR radiant heater depends on its design and ranges from 0.1 to 2 minutes to reach the operating state. If the IR radiant heater is only operated when heat is needed, high savings in electrical energy are guaranteed.
Due to the possible infinitely variable control from 0-100%, the emission maximum and the power of the IR radiant heater can be optimally adjusted to the heating task.
For materials of different sizes to be heated, the heating zone required at the time can be freely selected by means of switchable heating zones with an IR-heater.
With possible power densities of up to 80W/cm, related to the heating zone of the IR radiant heater, the highest energy density is generated in the smallest space. We offer radiant heater lengths of up to 2 metres in various designs.
By converting electrical energy into IR radiation energy, IR-heaters are free of emissions. The emitted IR radiant energy is transferred to the material to be heated without contact and converted into heat by absorption directly in the material to be heated.
