Quartz Tungsten Elements

Ceramicx Ireland produces extremely penetrative infrared emitters using two types of tungsten filaments: the porcupine or star type filament for fast medium wave emitters, and the supported filament for short wave halogen emitters.

The emitters heat up and cool down within seconds making them particularly suitable for systems requiring short cycle times.
