What is Infrared Technology?
Infrared radiation is a form of electromagnetic energy that is generated by the vibration and rotation of atoms and molecules within all objects with temperatures above absolute zero (0° Kelvin; -459° F; or -273° C). Infrared (literally meaning “below” or “beyond” the red) is located between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum and shares many of the same properties of visible light, except it has a longer wavelength. When infrared waves encounter a solid object they can be reflected (bounce off), diffracted (scattered), refracted (bent), transmitted (pass through), or absorbed by the object where several of these effects can take place at the same time. The visible portion of the spectrum ranges in wavelength from 0.38 microns to 0.76 microns. The infrared portion, which is not visible to the human eye, begins at 0.76 microns and extends to 10.0 microns (micron = one thousandth of a millimeter, one millionth of a kilometer). All objects emit infrared as a function of their temperature.
Infrared Heaters by Emitted Energy
Short-Wave Infrared Heaters
Short-wave infrared emitters utilize a low-mass tungsten filament that is incased in a special blend of inert gasses. This provides a very high energy source capable of responding instantly to voltage changes, allowing for precise temperature control for a variety of applications.
Fast-Response Medium-Wave Heaters
Fast-Response Medium-Wave infrared emitters are heaters that fall between the short and medium-wave standards. Utilizing the best of both worlds, fast-response medium-wave emitters are capable of almost instant response times while hitting a larger wavelength of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Carbon-based Medium-Wave Heaters
Emitted Energy Carbon-based Medium-Wave Infrared Emitters are heaters that utilize a wound fiber-woven carbon filament. This unique lamp is ideal for drying applications that don’t require high, intense heat of short-wave and long drawn-out heat of medium-wave, but rather falls in between. Note: only available with white ceramic reflector coating.
Medium-Wave Infrared Heaters
Emitted Energy Medium-wave infrared emitters utilize a high temperature nickel/chromium alloy filament to provide a steady source of heat. These high efficiency emitters convert 80 to 90 percent of the input electrical energy into infrared radiation making it ideal for situations requiring longer applications of heat.
