Electric Infrared Heaters

Electric Infrared Heaters – ELSTEIN Ceramic and TQS Quartz Infrared Heaters

Electric infrared heaters provide fast, efficient and controlled industrial heating by transferring thermal energy directly to the product or working surface. This category includes ELSTEIN ceramic infrared heaters and TQS quartz infrared heaters for a wide range of industrial heating applications.

The range includes ceramic infrared emitters, ceramic IR panels, quartz infrared heaters, medium-wave infrared cassette heaters and industrial IR heating elements in different dimensions, shapes and power ratings.

ELSTEIN Ceramic Infrared Heaters

ELSTEIN ceramic infrared heaters are suitable for industrial processes requiring stable and uniform radiant heating. Ceramic infrared elements convert electrical energy into infrared radiation and transfer heat directly to the material being processed.

Typical applications include:

• thermoforming machines;
• plastics processing;
• plastic sheet and film heating;
• industrial drying;
• industrial ovens;
• packaging machinery;
• surface heating;
• preheating processes;
• infrared process heating equipment.

Different types of flat, curved and application-specific ceramic infrared heaters can be selected according to the heating process.

TQS Quartz Infrared Heaters

For applications requiring a faster thermal response, TQS quartz infrared heaters and medium-wave infrared cassette heaters provide an effective industrial heating solution.

Quartz infrared heating elements are particularly suitable for processes where heat must be transferred rapidly to the product and where short heating cycles are important.

Typical applications include:

• thermoforming;
• plastics processing;
• paint and coating drying;
• textile processing;
• packaging machinery;
• material heating;
• automated production lines;
• heating tunnels and industrial ovens;
• infrared industrial processes.

Industrial Infrared Heating Solutions

Unlike conventional systems that mainly heat the surrounding air, infrared heating transfers a significant part of the thermal energy directly to the target material or surface. This allows compact heating systems to be designed around the requirements of the industrial process.

Choosing between a ceramic infrared heater and a quartz infrared heater depends on the required temperature, response time, distance from the product, installed power, heated area and material characteristics.

Important parameters when selecting an industrial infrared heater include:

power, voltage, heater dimensions, infrared wavelength, operating temperature, distance to the product, power density and temperature control system.

Our range of electric infrared heaters covers applications from localized radiant heating to multi-zone industrial infrared heating systems.
