Type FB Heater

The Casso-Solar Technologies’ Infrared Heater Type “FB” is a medium wavelength industrial infrared heater with a woven quartz cloth surface that is finished with a black ceramic coating for high emissivity.

The quartz face has the properties of being transparent to the infrared energy generated within the heater module, providing maximum heat transfer efficiency over the usable wavelengths of 2.5-6.0 microns.

This corresponds to emitter temperatures of up to 1600°F (880°C) and 25 watts per square inch (3.9 watts per square centimeter)

Our Type FB infrared heaters are available in a wide range of standard sizes with custom designs available upon request.

A variety of voltages are available are available on Type FB infrared heaters, including but not limited to:

  • 120V
  • 220V
  • 240V
  • 380V
  • 480V
  • 575V
  • 600V

These flat panel electric infrared heaters provide a wide degree of flexibility as they can be used as standalone heaters or as part of a larger array.

If necessary, a single module can also be built with multiple zones that are independently controlled.

Please contact one of our Sales Engineers to discuss your specific application for a recommendation.
