About Infrared Heating

Mount these lamps to warm, cure, and dry large surfaces, positioning them horizontally 6”-8” from what you want to heat. They are also known as infrared and radiant heaters.

Note: Do not use in hazardous locations, such as enclosed areas exposed to fumes.

Mobile Heat Lamps

Roll these lamps to your work surface and position the head anywhere along the stand, 18”-30” from what you want to heat. Use for spot-drying paint, adhesive, and other surface coatings and fillers. They’re also known as infrared and radiant heaters.

Adjustable-temperature lamp lets you regulate heat using three switch controls and up to seven bulbs (not included). Lamp is not for use with water-based primers and paint.

Fixed-temperature lamps have a head that rotates for horizontal or vertical positioning.

Note: Do not use in hazardous locations, such as enclosed areas exposed to fumes.

Replacement Ultraviolet Bulbs—Blacklight

Detect UV-reflective materials that are invisible to the naked eye with these bulbs. They contain a blue filter that absorbs the visible light they produce while allowing long wave ultraviolet (UV-A) light to pass through. They appear black when turned off. These bulbs are not for use in bug zappers. A bulb’s estimated yearly cost is based on 3 hours of usage per day at $0.11 per kWh.

Bulbs cannot be sold to the listed areas because they exceed local regulatory limits on mercury.

Ultraviolet Curing Chambers

Safely cure light-activated adhesives, coatings, and ink or strengthen 3D-printed resin parts with UV light in these enclosed chambers. Also known as flood curing, they evenly cure your parts. They work just like a microwave. Plug them in, set your time, and they’re ready to cure.

Chambers with a turntable are ideal for large and intricate 3D printed parts. The turntable rotates parts under the lights for even exposure while curing. Because these chambers use low-intensity LED bulbs and only operate when the door is closed, additional UV-protective glasses or clothing while using them are not required.

Chambers with a shelf create a deep, consistent cure and work best with small and flat parts. You can position parts closer to the bulb with the adjustable shelf for a faster curing. An automatic lamp shutter covers and reduces power to the bulb when you open the door. You should always wear UV-protective glasses and clothing when the system is turned on because of their high-intensity light. To remotely monitor and control these chambers, connect them to a computer or PLC.

Chambers and replacement bulbs that cannot be sold to Canada are restricted by regulations on limiting mercury content.

Ceiling- and Wall-Mount UV Inspection Lights

Shine UV light over large work areas to uncover leaks, cracks, and contaminants. These lights illuminate fluorescent dyes, particles, and other chemicals, making defects easy to spot. Fasten them to a wall or ceiling, so you’ll have both hands free to adjust what you’re inspecting or make repairs.

Lights with ultraviolet LED bulbs last longer, are more efficient, and generate less heat than lights with fluorescent bulbs.

Lights cannot be sold to the listed areas because they exceed local regulatory limits on mercury.
