What is Infrared Quartz Heating Tube

Quartz heating tubes are fast and efficient sources of radiant energy. They can heat a product in less than 45 seconds and cool down to 50% output in under 15 seconds. As a result, they are ideally suited for applications that experience frequent on/off cycles and frequent line stoppages. They also offer high operating temperatures and fast cooling rates, which make them perfect for continuous process applications. They are also designed with a rigid ceramic end cap to help prevent premature termination and minimize downtime.

Infrared quartz heating is highly efficient and inexpensive. The fast transmission of infrared energy helps match production speeds and control costs. Quartz glass tubes also come in halogen and T3 varieties and are composed of quartz glass and a tungsten filament. The latter has the advantage of absorbing far infrared radiation. It also blocks near infrared light. In addition, it has exceptional properties in blocking visible light and produces a pure silicon-oxygen bond.

Another type of infrared quartz heating tube is an integral quartz tube heater. This heating element has a gold coating and is extremely effective at reflecting infrared energy. They can also be mounted in a large array to heat a product.
