IR Carbon Fiber Heat Lamps: The Specs, The Design, The Real-World Grind
We build these IR carbon fiber heat lamps for engineers who just need a heat solution that’s tough, direct, and doesn’t mess around. You want something that specs out cleanly and wires up fast? This is it. It’s all about packing serious infrared power into a footprint that won’t fight you for space.
Power, Voltage, and Size—The Real Numbers
These lamps are built for the industrial grind. They typically run on 400V, which matches up perfectly with your plant’s power setup. That means you don’t have to worry about overloading the line. The wattage is tuned to crank out intense heat, so you get that fast warm-up and instant response. And the size? We keep it tight—around 300mm long. Perfect for slipping into those cramped spots on a machine where space is at a premium.
What’s Inside: The Carbon Fiber Core
The heart of these lamps is the carbon fiber element. It’s resilient, handling the constant heating and cooling cycles that would crack other, more brittle elements. Then there’s the quartz envelope, coated to focus the energy. It directs the heat right where you need it, instead of wasting it on broadband radiation. For the connection, we use R7s connectors. They give you a solid, no-fuss mechanical lock and a stable electrical contact. No fiddling, no headaches. Just a clean, drop-in replacement.
How It Actually Works on the Floor
Out in the real world, these lamps shine at drying, curing, and spot heating. The compact size makes it easy to integrate into existing tooling, so you spend less time reworking and more time running. Now, there is one thing to keep in mind. The high heat density means you need proper cooling and clearance. But if you size the control circuit right, you get predictable, reliable performance with minimal maintenance. It just works.
