432mm 220v 2000w Ruby Ir Lamp Halogen Infrared Heat Lamp For Paint Drying From Goldisgood application
- Product Specifications
- Dimensions: The 432mm length of the lamp provides a relatively wide coverage area. When used for paint drying, it can cover a significant portion of the painted surface. For example, it can be used to dry large vehicle parts like doors or fenders, or long pieces of furniture in a single pass or with minimal re – positioning.
- Voltage and Power: Operating at 220V, it is suitable for standard electrical setups in workshops and industrial settings. The 2000W power output means it can generate a substantial amount of heat. This high power allows for rapid drying of paint, as it quickly raises the temperature of the paint layer to facilitate solvent evaporation and resin curing.
- Type of Lamp: The “Ruby Ir Lamp Halogen Infrared Heat Lamp” has a ruby – colored coating that may affect the spectral output of the infrared radiation. Halogen lamps are known for their efficient heat generation and the infrared radiation they emit can penetrate the paint layer, making it an ideal choice for paint drying applications.
- Application in Paint Drying
- Drying Process
- Solvent Evaporation: In the paint – drying process, solvents need to be removed from the paint film. The 2000W lamp provides the necessary heat to accelerate the evaporation of solvents. The infrared radiation penetrates the paint, causing the solvents to turn into vapor and escape. This quick evaporation helps to prevent issues such as paint wrinkling or bubbling, which can occur if the solvents are not removed efficiently.
- Resin Curing: The heat also promotes the curing of the resins in the paint. The ruby – colored lamp’s infrared radiation may have a spectral range that is beneficial for triggering the cross – linking reactions of the resins. As the resins cure, the paint hardens and gains its final properties such as durability and gloss. The 432mm length of the lamp ensures that a wide area of the paint is exposed to the heat, promoting uniform curing.
- Uniform Heat Distribution
- The length of the lamp helps in distributing heat evenly across the painted surface. Uneven heat can lead to an inconsistent finish, with some areas of the paint drying faster than others. This can result in color differences, texture variations, or poor adhesion. The lamp’s design and power output work together to provide a consistent heat source, ensuring that the paint dries uniformly. This is especially important for achieving a high – quality, professional – looking paint finish.
- Process Efficiency
- By using this high – power lamp, the drying time can be significantly reduced. In a busy paint shop or an industrial painting line, faster drying means more items can be processed in a given time. The efficient heat transfer of the halogen infrared lamp also means that less energy is wasted compared to some other heating methods. The lamp’s ability to cover a large area due to its 432mm length further enhances the overall efficiency of the paint – drying process.
