Carbon Fiber Filament Heat Lamp: The Rough-and-Tough Heat Source for the Real World
We built this carbon fiber filament heat lamp for the engineers who need a heat source that’s as tough as their job site. Forget a standard bulb. This is a purpose-built heater, designed to get the job done fast with direct, intense heat.
What’s Under the Hood
Let’s get into the details, because they matter. It runs on 400V, which means it can plug right into those higher-power industrial lines. The payoff? Less current draw and fewer losses over long runs. Paired with 2500W of power packed into a 300mm tube, you get serious heat density in a surprisingly small package. It heats up fast. Seriously fast. Just be ready—your machine’s cooling system needs to be up to the task of handling that extra ambient heat.
Built to Last
The heart of it all is the carbon fiber filament, tucked safely inside a quartz envelope. We chose quartz for one reason: it can handle extreme heat changes without cracking. We also added a halogen fill gas. This keeps the filament strong and ensures the output stays steady, day after day, for the life of the lamp. And the installation? It couldn’t be easier. The R7s connector is a simple, double-ended design that just drops right into your standard fixtures. It’s built to take the heat without melting or warping.
Where It Shines
This lamp was born for the hard stuff. Think demanding thermal jobs like PET blowing and preheating plastics. The focused heat lets you hit your target temperature in no time, which cuts down on those long cycle times. Its compact size is a lifesaver when you’re trying to fit things into tight machine spaces. You get heat you can count on, performance that’s consistent, and a build that can take whatever the shop floor throws at it.
