Type QRH Heater Assemblies
Designed for use in applications that require instant on/off response with rapid heat-up and cooldown rates. These heater assemblies are designed to operate in the short wavelength range of 2.5-1.2 microns (1600 to 4000°F peak emitter temperatures). These Universal 2000 Modular Housing assemblies utilize T3 (10mm) LMP sealed lamps. These rugged short wavelength units contain double ended lamps having quick connect RSC/R7s bases for easy lamp access without disassembly of housing or removing heater from installation. The Quartz IR heat lamps are mounted at the focal point of a polished aluminum reflector within the housing. These units are available in a variety of sizes and power combinations.
