ThermaTech Heaters
CH-40 & VH-40 – High Intensity Heaters
High intensity infrared heaters for high speed heating. When space allows only a small number of heaters for fast heating.
Features:
-
Operates up to 1400°F face temperature (not element temperature)
-
Wave length 2.6 – 6.0 microns
-
Warm up time 2-4 minutes
-
Each heater has two rows of stamped element, radiating through Corning Vycor® face plate
-
Extruded aluminum case, cast aluminum end caps and mounting clamps
-
Operates well in horizontal or vertical position
-
Size: 2.75” wide 2.00” deep up to 120″ heated length
-
Overall length is 8.5 inches longer than heated length
Benefits:
-
Extremely efficient and effective. 85% of energy cost is directed at your product
-
Reduces drying time drastically, compared with hot air and other infrared heating devices
-
With stands shock of water splash at peak temperatures
-
Excellent heat transfer even when mounted in the open, sometimes eliminates need for oven enclosures All heaters are repairable
-
Built in Thermocouples are available to indicate temperature of radiating heater face and acts as a control point for maintaining constant face temperature. Thermocouple kits for field installation are available.
Alternate Electrical hook-ups Possible:
-
3 Phase Wye: power is reduced from 40 to 13.3 watts per inch
-
3 Phase Delta: full power at 40 watts per inch
-
Similar design to CH-40 is the VH-40
-
Overall length is 1.50″ longer than heated length
-
To prolong heater life it is recommended to use temperature controls
-
Each heater is supplied with simple mounting and wiring instructions
-
Heaters can be reused for different applications
Typical Applications:
Teflon Isopar Removal and Sintering – Web Heating or Drying in Plastics, Paper and Coated Products – Paint Baking – Drying of Chemicals and Slurries – Electronic Application
