Features:
Easy Mounting — Heater can be mounted to radiate in any direction.
Reliable Operation — No reduction in radiant output over life
of heater. Uniform Radiation Pattern Assured with a wide flat infrared surface
versus the line pattern given in normal radiant heaters. This eliminates uneven
heating of the work and allows uniform heating of a stationary surface such as
in an indexing process.
External Reflectors Not Required — The refractory board and bulk insulation
behind the heating element help prevent back heat loss.
One-Piece Bonded Construction resists damage from vibration and shock.
Over-temperature Control — These units should be controlled such that
overheating and premature failure do not occur. This is of particular importance
in oven usage, where high ambient temperatures exist.
Additional Sizes and Ratings — Contact Us for price
and availability.
Lower Operating Cost with up to 80% of the input energy transmitted to and
absorbed by the work material. The maximum amount of radiant energy is
transferred to the work with very low heater convection losses. Typical
installation distance of two to four inches from the work surface significantly
reduces the energy input.
Costly Downtime Minimized — There is no deterioration of the
output radiation level with heater life and no reflectors to clean which could
cause downtime and increased maintenance costs. The unit is resistant to
vibration because of the compact homogeneous construction.
Easy Installation — The light weight building block approach allows for a
modular installation which is easily expandable.
Repeatable Process Performance Assured — Used with closed loop control, the
system automatically compensates for ambient temperature ranges and line voltage
fluctuations. Maximum energy transfer requires matching the peak wavelength
output to the specific material absorption characteristics. Because the peak
wavelengths of the flat surface heater are repeatable and adjustable, the
quality output of the process is assured.
The CPH, CPL and CPLI are medium wave heaters. Micron levels between 2.5 and 6
of infrared energy are generated. At these micron levels the majority of the
infrared energy generated falls into the medium wave section of the infrared
spectrum. Outer edges of the element can have gradual increasing wattage density
to compensate for production edge losses. Single elements or multiple elements
can be zoned and wired to achieve specific profiles. Different width materials
can be processed by turning off elements.
Easy to Control — The use of time proportioning control with closed loop feedback, such as Chromalox 2104 temperature controllers or SCR power controllers assure easy and dependable system control. Thermowells may be offered in two locations in the heater interior. Suitable to accept Chromalox standard thermocouples, they sense emitter temperature ensuring accurate wavelength emission. Fast response time of the unit reduces thermal lag.
CAUTION — Hazard of Fire. These radiant heaters must not be
operated in the presence of flammable vapors, gases or combustible materials
without proper ventilation and/or other safety precautions in compliance with
either the National Fire Protection Bulletin 86A entitled "Ovens and Furnaces"
or the authority having jurisdiction.
Construction
1. Heating Element — Precision iron base resistance wire, designed to give
extended life and uniform emission over entire radiating surface.
2. Emission Surface — Woven refractory cloth with black ceramic coating for high
radiant energy transfer for CPLI, CPL and CPH type heaters. Aluminum emission
surfaces are available for applications such as in the food industry.
3. Frame — Heavy gauge, heat resistant, aluminized steel for CPLI, CPL and CPH
type heaters.
4. Heating Element Support — Fibrous ceramic material, specially developed for
high insulation qualities, durability, shock resistance, asbestos free.
5. Insulation — High temperature insulation to minimize heat loss from back of
heater.
6. Terminals — For CPLI, lead-wires are provided on a 2 x 4" junction box. A 2 x
4" junction box with stainless steel terminals is provided for CPL and CPH type
heaters.
7. Thermowell — Quality tubular quartz thermowell, with strain relief, to accept
a Chromalox C-700JU or C-700KU thermocouple on units
with suffix T in model number. Standard placement of the thermowell is on side
of heater. Specials are available with thermowell exiting back of heater.
