QUARTZ LAMPS vs. QUARTZ TUBES

Short wavelength, tungsten filament sources. (quartz lamps) provide high radiant efficiency, ​deep penetration, and a fast rate
​of response. Medium waves (quartz tubes) are less radiant efficient, but are less expensive and in some cases provide the best wavelength for the application.

F-Series Panel Heater composite layers
INFRARED FLAT PANEL MEDIUM WAVE EMITTERS

F-Series Specifications:
​
Quartz composite is the standard face on the F-Series panel heater. The quartz composite heater is unique, highly durable and incredibly flexible.

Some of the flexibility in this heater design:
  • Large range of sizes
  • Flexible voltage
  • 3 Phase and Single Phase

​The typical life expectancy of the F-Series heater is 25,000 hours. The heater has a high radiant efficiency of 80%.
​Max. watt density of 25 watts/in2
Fostoria V-Series Medium-Wave Emitter
V-SERIES SPECIFICATIONS:
​
The V-series is perfect for applications that require high power, tight process control, and fast heat-up/cool-down for a flat panel heater.
The stamped elements have low mass for fast heating/cooling and minimal thermal lag for extremely tight process control. The elements are bonded to a high temperature insulation board having low thermal conductivity, low thermal mass, and low heat capacity to minimize stored heat.

The typical life expectancy of the V-Series heater ​is 12,000 hours.
The heater has a high radiant efficiency of 80%.
​Max. watt density of 100 watts/in2.
​

OPTIONAL FEATURES:
​
  • Replaceable type K Thermocouple
  • Air holes for fast cool down
  • Pre-mounted fans
  • Multi-zone heaters
  • Pyrometer view port through heat for radiometer
  • Stainless steel housing

​Flat panel emitters are also available with a glass face (G-Series) or metal face (M-Series) where extra durability or frequent cleaning of the ​emitter face is required.
