Ruby Infrared Lamps

Ruby infrared lamps are specialised heat sources designed to emit focused infrared radiation, providing rapid and consistent surface heating. These lamps feature a red ruby-coloured quartz envelope that allows them to generate high-intensity heat in a controlled manner. Unlike conventional heating methods, ruby infrared lamps deliver energy directly to the target surface, making them highly efficient for industrial processes, curing, drying, and material testing applications.

An industrial ruby infrared lamp combines high thermal output with durability, offering a long service life under continuous or intermittent operation. These lamps are ideal for applications that require precise control of temperature, such as in plastic welding, paint curing, or laboratory environments. The unique spectral output of the ruby quartz ensures even heat distribution and faster process times, making them a reliable solution for high-performance heating applications.

Key Benefits & Features

  • Efficient heating: Delivers rapid surface heating with minimal energy loss.
  • High-intensity output: Suitable for industrial and commercial processes.
  • Durable construction: Quartz and ruby coating provide long service life and thermal stability.
  • Precise temperature control: Works well with controllers for regulated heating.
  • Compact design: Easy integration into existing systems or enclosures.
  • Versatile application: Can be used for curing, drying, pre-heating, or surface treatment.
  • Consistent spectral output: Optimises heat absorption for faster, uniform results.

 

How These Products Work

  1. Electric filament: Electricity heats the tungsten filament inside the quartz envelope.
  2. Infrared emission: The ruby coating filters and focuses the infrared radiation.
  3. Direct heating: Infrared energy is absorbed directly by surfaces, increasing temperature efficiently.
  4. Optional control: Can be paired with thermostats, dimmers, or temperature controllers for precise output.
  5. High-intensity heat: Provides rapid surface warming while minimising heat loss to the surrounding environment.

Ideal Uses / Applications

  • Industrial curing of plastics, coatings, and adhesives
  • Drying inks and paints in commercial printing
  • Laboratory heating and thermal testing
  • Pre-heating surfaces or materials prior to processing
  • Medical device manufacturing and sterilisation
  • Industrial processes requiring focused, high-intensity heat

Important Considerations & Safety Notes

  • Ensure lamp voltage and wattage match your equipment specifications.
  • Avoid direct contact with skin or flammable materials when the lamp is operating.
  • Use protective shielding and heat-resistant mounts where necessary.
  • Allow adequate ventilation to prevent overheating of surrounding equipment.
  • Regularly inspect lamps for filament damage, cracks, or wear.
  • Handle with care — quartz envelopes can shatter if dropped or stressed.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a ruby infrared lamp?

A lamp with a quartz envelope coated in ruby, designed to emit high-intensity infrared radiation for rapid surface heating.

Can these lamps be used in industrial applications?

Yes - industrial ruby infrared lamps are built for high-intensity, continuous operation in manufacturing and processing environments.

How do ruby infrared lamps differ from standard infrared lamps?

The ruby coating focuses energy into a specific infrared wavelength for faster, more uniform heating of target surfaces.

Do I need a special controller for these lamps?

While not always necessary, using a dimmer or temperature controller allows precise regulation of heating output and prevents overheating.

How long do ruby infrared lamps last?

Lifespan varies by application and usage, but they are designed for long-term industrial use with proper handling and installation.
