Technical summary

Controlled heat for stable microclimates and open warming surfaces.

Typical applications

  • Incubators and thermal microclimates.
  • Open warming surfaces.
  • Applications requiring thermal stability.

Key points

Non-contact heating

Infrared radiation transfers energy directly to the product surface.

Zone response

Power can be adjusted by zone according to geometry and process speed.

Application-based selection

The emitter model is defined by temperature, distance, surface and material.

Recommended inquiry data

  • Material or product to heat.
  • Heated-area dimensions.
  • Distance between emitter and product.
  • Target temperature and process speed.
  • Number of control zones and available space.

Selection criteria

To select infrared emitters, total power is not enough: geometry, distance, material absorption and required uniformity must be reviewed.
