Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the optimum distance to have between an infrared emitter and the target material?
This varies depending on the application, but we generally recommend 100-200mm for static applications where both heater and target are in a fixed position. Optimum distance depends on element spacing and the desired temperature uniformity across the surface. In general, the greater the distance, the greater the radiant dispersion, which in turn facilitates uniform heating. Shorter distances may lead to increased heat energy concentrated over a smaller area which can create localised high-temperature areas.
What distance should I leave between emitters when designing a heater array?
Again, this varies depending on application and emitter to target distance, but in general, small distances between emitters facilitate improved temperature uniformity. We generally recommend a minimum of 5mm between ceramic emitters when arrayed inside a heater field. We recommend the same with quartz emitters also.
What is the recommended reflector specification for securely mounting an element?
For optimal stability, use a slot hole size of 42 mm x 15 mm with a reflector thickness between 0.75 mm and 0.9 mm. Increasing the size or thickness beyond these specifications may cause the pillar to weaken or break.
