The CPL Wide Area Radiant Heater from Electrified Thermal Solutions is designed for various industrial applications, including ink drying, food warming, and moisture removal in food processing. It operates within a power range of 0.55 to 18 kW and supports multiple voltage options, including 120, 230, 240, and 480 volts, with both single and three-phase configurations available. The heater features a maximum emitter temperature of 1650°F and offers a heating surface area density of 5 to 25 W/in².
Constructed with a precision iron base resistance wire and a woven refractory cloth with a black ceramic coating, the CPL heater ensures uniform emission and extended life. The heavy gauge, heat-resistant aluminized steel frame provides durability, while high-temperature insulation minimizes heat loss. The unit is designed for easy mounting in any direction and does not require external reflectors due to its efficient insulation design.
The CPL heater is suitable for applications requiring consistent and repeatable heating performance, particularly when used with closed-loop control systems. It is important to implement overtemperature control to prevent overheating and ensure reliable operation.
