● What is a Air Blow Heater?
Although it is not visible, because the light with the power which warms a thing existed “outside red”, it was named “infrared rays.”
Infrared rays are the same “Electromagnetic waves” as “X-rays”, “Ultraviolet rays”, “Visible light”, “Microwave”, “Radiofrequency wave”, etc.
Infrared type
| Division Name | Abbreviation | Wavelength | Photon Energy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Near-infrared | NIR, IR-A DIN | 0.75–1.4 µm | 0.9–1.7 eV |
Defined by the water absorption, and commonly used in fiber optic telecommunication because of low attenuation losses in the SiO2 glass (silica) medium. Image intensifiers are sensitive to this area of the spectrum. Examples include night vision devices such as night vision goggles.
| Division Name | Abbreviation | Wavelength | Photon Energy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Short-wavelength infrared | SWIR, IR-B DIN | 1.4-3 µm | 0.4–0.9 eV |
Water absorption increases significantly at 1,450 nm. The 1,530 to 1,560 nm range is the dominant spectral region for long-distance telecommunications.
| Division Name | Abbreviation | Wavelength | Photon Energy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mid-wavelength infrared | MWIR, IR-C DIN; MidIR.[7] Also called intermediate infrared (IIR) | 3–8 µm | 150–400 meV |
In guided missile technology the 3–5 µm portion of this band is the atmospheric window in which the homing heads of passive IR ‘heat seeking’ missiles are designed to work, homing on to the Infrared signature of the target aircraft, typically the jet engine exhaust plume. This region is known as thermal infrared, but it detects only temperatures somewhat above body temperature.
| Division Name | Abbreviation | Wavelength | Photon Energy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Long-wavelength infrared | LWIR, IR-C DIN | 8–15 µm | 80–150 meV |
The “thermal imaging” region, in which sensors can obtain a completely passive image of objects only slightly higher in temperature than room temperature, (for example, the human body), based on thermal emissions only and requiring no illumination such as the sun, moon, or infrared illuminator. This region is also called the “thermal infrared.”
| Division Name | Abbreviation | Wavelength | Photon Energy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Far-infrared | FIR | 20–1,000 µm | 1.2–80 meV |
Far-infrared rays are electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of about 4-1000 µm (3-1000 µm according to the Far Infrared Society) and have properties similar to radio waves.
Infrared rays are always emitted from objects, and this phenomenon is called black body radiation. An object with a higher temperature emits infrared rays more strongly, and the peak wavelength of radiation is inversely proportional to temperature.
The peak wavelength of infrared radiation emitted by objects at room temperature of 20 ° C is about 10μm.
Features of infrared heater
High-temperature heating,
Heated to 1000 ℃ – 1400 ℃ in just 5 seconds!
High conversion efficiency from electrical to radiant energy,
Concentrate on one point the light of the halogen lamp, reach the temperature 1400 ℃ ~ 1500 ℃.
Instantaneous heating, the heating time can be shortened.
HPH is to put large amounts of heat at high speed, miniaturization of equipment,
the heating time can be shortened.
Until now, that was over 30 minutes of idling, idle time can be zero.
Since there is no lag temperature, eliminating the waste of waiting time.
Temperature rise so fast, turn OFF the power at idle. save money on electricity conservation.
Electricity rates can be used, per day, costs down 2kw x 0.5h x 12.16 = 12,16 yen.
Year (250 days operation), the cost down is 3040 yen.
In addition, the annual emissions reduction of 100kg C02 cut off !
※ unit power rate was calculated as the 12.16 yen / kWh.
※ CO2 emission factors were calculated as 0.4kg-CO2/kwh.
Near infrared can be heated through glass.
Quartz glass hardly absorbs visible light and the near-infrared radiation.
Transmittance is 93%. There are only 7% reflection.
Through the glass, the heating can also work in an atmosphere of inert gas in the vacuum.
Temperature can be controlled with high precision.
Control any temperature from ambient to maximum temperature with supply voltage.
Supply voltage of the lamp output is capable of any design, the maximum output is around 2.5kw.
Clean.
The optical non-contact heating can be the complete heating in the vacuum chamber.
Excellent in safety.
This heater is relatively safe for humans.
Neither dust nor the gases are generated, workers work comfortably.
Moreover, when trouble has came, this rapid cool heater can reduce the risk of ignition of the heated object.
