Maltec-H Infrared Silica Quartz Heater | Heating Elements

Quartz Heaters consist of a helically wound resistance coil housed in a pure vitreous silica fused quartz tube. The heating coil is specially designed to provide a long life at rated voltage. The quartz tubing is terminated with specially designed ceramic insulating caps that allow the quartz tubing to breathe. The ceramic caps are securely fastened to the quartz tube to the power connecting termination. This construction is excellent for operating continuously or intermittently with a quick heat and cool down response time.

Straight long wave infrared rays can be easily arranged to fall on an object by use of a reflection plate. If the cross-section of the reflection plate is designed in parabolic shape, most of the reflected rays will go in parallel direction to heat the object. Aluminum plate has excellent reflective power, Stainless plate is slightly inferior to aluminum plate while stainless plate must be used where corrosive gas emerges. There is 30% difference between the use of parabolic reflection plate and a plane type. Therefore, a parabolic reflection plate should be used whenever it is possible. For maintaining the efficiency of the reflector cleaning must be done.
