Panel Heaters: The Halogen Quartz Powerhouse for Industrial Heat
Here’s the deal with our panel heaters: they’re built around high-intensity halogen quartz tubes. These aren’t your average, all-purpose heaters. They’re compact, quick on the draw, and designed to slip into tight spots where space is at a premium, delivering steady, repeatable heat exactly where you need it.
Power, Voltage, and the Right Fit
We set these tubes up to run on 400V. Why? It keeps the current draw low and stops voltage from dropping off over the wiring. You get 2500W packed into just a 300mm length. That’s serious watt density, so your target temperature hits fast. The 10mm tube diameter keeps the thermal mass low, which means the heater responds almost instantly to control signals. It’s perfect for spot heating. But heads up—you’ll need proper machine cooling to keep that ambient heat from building up.
Built to Last: Halogen, Quartz, and R7s
Inside the quartz envelope, the halogen cycle keeps the filament temperature steady. That means consistent output over the life of the tube. The quartz body? It laughs in the face of thermal shock and handles repeated on/off cycles without breaking a sweat. And the R7s bi-pin connector is the unsung hero. It’s a proven, quick-connect interface that makes installation and replacement a breeze. It snaps in place and carries the full current—no extra adapters needed.
Where They Shine: Tight Spaces, Fast Cycles
You’ll find these tubes hard at work in PET blowing, plastic preform heating, and panel-mounted heating stations. Because they’re so compact, you can put the heat right where the process needs it. That means better temperature uniformity across the part. The fast ramp-up time cuts cycle times short. And with the simple R7s termination, maintenance downtime stays minimal. It’s just easier.
