Size: 247 x 22.5 x 62.5 mm
Useful wavelength range: 1.5 – 8 microns
Average weight: 376 g
Heater Voltage: 230 V standard
Other Variations: voltages, wattages, lead length and terminations available on request
Average Operating Life: 10,000 hrs depending on conditions
Iron-chrome aluminium resistance wire
Recommended radiation distance from heater is 100 – 200 mm
Minimum recommended spacing between elements: 5 mm.
Supplied with 100 mm ceramic beaded power leads
Ensure temperature of the aluminium clad steel body does not exceed 500 °C (932 °F).
Element should always be mounted so the quartz glass tubes are horizontal.
Spectral Analysis
Ceramicx has been working with the University of Duisburg in Essen Germany for a number of years. The data produced has allowed Ceramicx to evolve and develop our product further as well as making more information available to help customers make a better decision when applying infrared heaters and ceramic heaters to high-tech applications.
Case Studies
Ceramicx Element Efficiency Helps Chinese Thermoformers Become Industry Leaders
A leading packaging material manufacturer has chosen a series of Ceramicx 1,000W FQE full quartz infrared heating elements to increase production on a slow and inefficient system. These long wave elements now provide a faster, more consistent, and more efficient process in the heat-curing of aluminium-coated lining paper and anti-counterfeit packaging film.
