INFRARED HI-TEMPERATURE SOLUTIONS HEAT BANKS
Our goal is to simplify the selection process for heating equipment with our Infrared Solutions product line. By answering five simple questions, you can select the infrared solutions heat bank that will match your application. The equipment can be used for a variety of applications such as: powder, paint or stain curing; flash-off, pre-heat of components to make flexible or pliable; thermoforming, and activating various adhesives. Along with assistance in answering these five questions, additional technical information will help you understand the mounting options and ideal distance the product should be placed from the equipment. |

(4) Need ruby red sleeves, for removing the brightness from short-wave emitters? - Along with the immediate heat response with short-wave emitters, there is also a very bright light during high output. We would recommend adding the ruby red sleeves to the emitters when operators are working in the immediate area of the IR banks, especially if the operator will have a direct line of sight to the emitters. Refer to the demonstration video at the right.

EMITTER/LAMP GUARD |
(5) Emitter lamp guards, are they needed for my work environment? - Two main items that you need to take in consideration when determining if you need lamp guards are your production line and the positioning of the infrared bank in relationship to the product. On your production line, if there is a possibility that the product could drop down or swing while moving during conveying by hand or otherwise, then emitter/lamp guards should be employed. The other consideration is the positioning of the infrared bank in relationship to the product. If the unit is facing up to heat the bottom side of the product or if the units are on the side of an overhead conveyor line where there is a possibility of the parts swinging, you should consider adding the guards. The purpose of the guards is not to prevent the operator from touching the emitters but to minimize the possibility of the product hitting the emitters. Note: Emitter/lamp guards can be added to the unit in the future if needed.
