Elstein IRS Rod Heaters
Elstein IRS rod heaters are ceramic infrared heaters, designed for operating temperatures of up to 750 °C. With the help of MPO and MPO/2 mounting profiles, surface ratings of up to 72.0 kW/ m² can be realised.
IRS series heaters have one mounting socket on each side, with which they can be fixed to a mounting profile with fixing springs.
The rod shaped design makes IRS heaters preferably suitable for linear heating tasks.
An example for linear heating tasks can be found in the timber industry, where IRS rod heaters are used to pre-heat edge strips.
Elstein IRS rod radiators are available in two designs and cover the power range from 200 W to 600 W.

Consideration
The power can be controlled by using thermocouple heaters with TRD temperature controllers, TSE thyristor switching units and other accessories.
IR radiation panels can be assembled using mounting profiles MPO.
The national safety regulations must be complied with for the respective application, for example, the IEC or EN standard 60519-1, Safety in electrical heating installations.
Further information and safety instructions are mentioned in the mounting sheet, which is attached to each heater.
