Low Voltage DC Infrared Ceramic Heaters for LED Headlight De-Icing

Reliable De-Icing and Anti-Fogging for LED Headlights in Extreme Cold

Infrared Ceramic Heating Elements for LED Headlights

Ceramicx manufactures low voltage DC infrared ceramic heating elements designed for LED headlight de-icing and lamp de-misting in vehicles operating in freezing conditions. Our flat and 3D ceramic heaters are widely used across heavy-duty trucks, long-haul transportation, and automotive applications where LED lighting performance must be maintained in harsh weather.

Proven to operate effectively in temperatures as low as –30°C (–22°F)

The Problem with LED Headlights in Cold Weather

LED headlights are energy-efficient and long-lasting, but they produce minimal heat—unlike traditional halogen lamps. In freezing environments, this lack of radiant heat leads to:

• Ice build-up on polycarbonate lenses
• Fogging in humid or cold conditions
• Reduced light transmission and visibility

Our ceramic infrared heaters offer a powerful, efficient solution for headlight de-icing, keeping lenses clear and roads safely illuminated.

Why Use Infrared Ceramic Heaters for De-Icing?

Ceramic infrared technology is ideal for polycarbonate lenses, which are standard in modern vehicle lighting. These lenses:

• Have excellent infrared absorption
• Conduct heat efficiently to the outer surface
• Melt ice and dissipate fog quickly with radiant heat

Our ceramic heating elements deliver long-wave infrared radiation that is directly absorbed by the lens material—ensuring fast, efficient de-icing.
