Infrared Ceramic Heater Element

Infra-red ceramic heaters: controllable heat between 272°C and 726°C 

Infra-red ceramic heaters provide an efficient and controllable heat using a robust ceramic element with a temperature range from 272°C up to 726°C.

  • Wide range of shapes, sizes, wattages, & elements available
  • Can be supplied with aluminised steel reflectors for targeted heat to maximize the heat output and form a rigid, durable, and safe framework
  • Thermocouples also available for accurate control  
These 230V heaters are frequently used in catering equipment, food processing & foodservice, industrial process control, plastics manufacturing and heat sealing, and test ovens. 

We have access to 53 different models spanning 125w to 1500w.

Long wave radiation curing, heating, and drying is an environmentally friendly, portable, and cost effective method of heating in infra-red ceramic heaters.

Where effective positional heat is required, the aluminised steel projector (PAS) forms an ideal mounting system for a wide range of infra-red emitters.


Curved (trough) ceramic IR heater elements
 
Long-wave trough elements produce a concentrated heat output that disperses over distance. They are best suited to applications requiring heaters that are positioned further from the target material

Advantages of ceramic infra-red heater elements
Quick and Efficient Heating
Their ability to rapidly project heat with a rapid start-up time makes these suitable for a variety of industrial environments and uses, particularly those that require intermittent heating. Ceramic emitters typically require about 10-12 minutes to reach a steady-state temperature.
Used in Vacuum and Air-Flow Environments
The long-wave infra-red radiation utilised by the heating elements avoids the limitations of more typical heaters, allowing them to operate in a wider range of environments.
Wide Range of Applications
The design of these heaters means that they can be utilised across a very broad range of engineering and mechanical fields. Several such examples are plastic-moulding, sterilisation, paint curing, printing & drying, and gluing.
Low Investment Cost
Highly efficient power consumption, easy control of heat levels, and low installation costs mark infra-red heaters as a low investment cost item.
