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.

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:
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 |

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 for F-Series & V-Series:
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.
