Flat Panel Infrared Heaters are very efficient infrared
heat sources in that as much as 80% of the applied energy is converted
into radiant energy. Typical ratings are 10-15 watts per square inch.
The FP Flat Panel Infrared Heater's advantage versus radiant elements
such as quartz tube, metal sheath tubular and ceramic is the complete,
wide area, uniform coverage provided. A broad range of standard sizes
and ratings can form the modular base of a radiant heating system.
Custom sizes and ratings can also be designed for special or unique
applications. The standard material, Quartz Cloth, a cleanable Black
Glass and extra-durable Stainless Steel emitter surfaces are available.
Because of the rugged construction, FP Infrared Heaters are resistant to
shock and vibration. No reflectors are required, eliminating maintenance
requirements. Without insulation, the overall thickness is 1-1/2" - with
insulation, 3". Thermowells can be installed near the surface for
precise control of the sheath temperature. By controlling the sheath
temperature, the wavelength can be matched to the specific absorption
characteristics of the material being heated.
