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.
Custom Infrared Heating Solutions for Automotive Applications
Ceramicx designs, tests, and manufactures infrared ceramic heaters optimized for 12V to 24V DC electrical systems. Every heater is engineered in-house for durability, efficiency, and long-term performance.

Environmental Testing and Performance Validation
Our heaters undergo rigorous testing to ensure they meet performance demands in extreme conditions:
- Temperature range: –40°C to +180°C (–40°F to +356°F)
- Humidity range: 20% – 98% relative humidity
- Thermal imaging and heat flux analysis
- Over-voltage testing and lifecycle evaluation
Applications for Infrared Ceramic Heating Technology
Our de-icing heaters are ideal for:
- LED headlight de-icing
- Lamp and light lens defogging
- Snow and ice removal from automotive lighting
- Low voltage heating systems in commercial vehicles
Ceramicx infrared technology can be used for de-icing and temperature maintenance in the most robust of environments.
