Section 1 – INTRODUCTION The Model 5306 StripIR® Infrared line heater is designed for use in any application that requires a clean, responsive, non-contact heat source.
Electrical Cable – The Model 5306 heater is electrically wired from the T3 lamp to intermediate terminal block within the heater. An 8-foot (2.4 m) electrical cable is supplied with each heater. Optional Quartz Window – A quartz window can be ordered along with each size of the Model 5306. When installed in the heater, the quartz window protects the aluminum reflector and lamp from contaminants released in the heating process, resulting in maximum efficiency of the heater.
Section 2 – FEATURES & BENEFITS The design and functionality of the Model 5306 supplies a variety of features and related benefits: Rapid Response – The quartz halogen lamps heat up and cool down instantly in response to power control signals. They reach 90 percent of full operating temperature within three seconds of a cold start. The radiant energy dissipates to ten percent five seconds after the power supply is disconnected.
