Industrial Infrared (IR) Heater
Posted on Monday, December 15, 2014
Engineered for both clean room
manufacturing and contaminated
environments, this IR heater
combines infrared with air for
use in diverse types of manufacturing
environments. The new
SFA-Q Heater is a stamped foil
element heater with a quartz
plate in front of the elements.
The plate allows infrared energy
to pass through to the product
while ensuring the heater remains
isolated from the process.
The inclusion of flowing air
cools the quartz plate and internal
heater components while
simultaneously pressurizing the
heater. This pressurization and
purging ensures contaminates do
not enter the heater housing nor
become exposed to the heating
elements. The SFA-Q elements
heat up and respond quickly to
different set points. Additional-
ly, SFA-Q needs less cool-down
time than a typical Quartz Face
Heater. The SFA-Q Heater is
modular and energy efficient.
