CERAMIC HEATERS
Elstein BSI construction panels are available in dimensions from 125 x 250 mm to 1000 x 1500 mm and can be fitted with HTS radiators up to 800 W or rather with HSR radiators up to 1000 W.
They can be equipped with Elstein ceramic panel radiators FSR, HSR/1,HTS/1, SHTS/1 and FSR/2,HSR/2, HTS/2, SHTS/2, whereby it is also possible to combine different radiator designs and wattages of the same types of radiators. The ceramic infrared radiators mounted in stainless steel reflectors are inserted in the lower part of an extruded, anodized aluminum section with an H-shaped cross-section. Aluminum capping sections close the wiring space in the upper part of the section and die cast end pieces close the end faces. Compared to EBF the EBF-R system is delivered pre-wired with rails by our factory so that the user only has to screw in the EBF-R elements in a steel section frame to be made on site and connect up with the electricity mains. Elstein EBF-R construction elements are available in five lengths and can be fitted together to form flat or curved radiation panels in any installed position.
QUARTZ HEATERS

Carbon-based Medium-Wave Infrared Heaters
Emitted Energy Carbon-based Medium-Wave Infrared Emitters are heaters that utilize a wound fiber-woven carbon filament. This unique lamp is ideal for drying applications that don’t require high, intense heat of short-wave and long drawn-out heat of medium-wave, but rather falls in between. Note: only available with white ceramic reflector coating.

- Filament Material: Wound Carbon Fiber-Woven
- Filament Temperature: ~ 1200°C (~ 2200°F)
- Peak Wavelength: ~ 2.0 µm
- Response Time: > 3 sec.
- Typical Applications:
- Drying Processes
- Curing of Coated Surfaces
- Pre-heating and Post-heating
- And Many Others…
Medium-Wave Infrared Heaters
Emitted Energy Medium-wave infrared emitters utilize a high temperature nickel/chromium alloy filament to provide a steady source of heat. These high efficiency emitters convert 80 to 90 percent of the input electrical energy into infrared radiation making it ideal for situations requiring longer applications of heat.
- Glass Tube:99.9% Pure Fused Silica Quartz Sealed
- Filament Material:Nickel-Chromium Alloy
- Filament Temperature:800 – 950°C (1500 – 1800°F)
- Peak Wavelength:2.0 – 4.0 µm
- Response Time: > 1 min.
- Typical Applications:
- Curing Painted Surfaces
- Preheating Plastics
- Curing Powder Coatings
- Drying / heat setting textiles after dyeing or printing
- Supplemental heating
- Drying or inks for printing and silk-screening
- Preheating and curing wood coatings
TUBULAR HEATERS
The Metal Sheathed Heater provides a uniform wave length and pattern that is absorbed by all colors with equal efficiency.
Units are available in various ratings and lengths and in 2 basic Kw. per sq. ft. capacities.
Catalog #RHS-1 series approximately 1.8 kw. per sq. ft.
Catalog #RHS-2 and RHH-1 series approximately 3.6 kw. per sq. ft.
Applications for Radiant Heaters are drying, preheating, curing, sterilizing, shrink fitting and degreasing, in applications where high temperatures will not cause damage or be a fire hazard.
Caution must be observed so that these heaters do not operate in atmospheres that can cause fire or explosion. In all applications the materials should be thoroughly investigated to ensure that the gases produced in the application are controlled so as not to become a fire or explosion hazard. Applications must be in compliance with safety precautions as outlined by the jurisdictional authority.
