Technical Deep-Dive: Power, Voltage, and Dimensions
Let’s get real about what this lamp brings to the table. We spec these mercury arc UV lamps at 400V and 2500W. That combo gives you serious heat, packed into a surprisingly small footprint. The length is 300mm. That keeps the heating zone tight, so it slips into crowded machine bays without forcing you to redesign the whole line. You get a lot of heat in a small space, which means you need a solid cooling plan—air or water—to keep the surrounding temperature in check. Running at 400V also helps. It lowers the current draw compared to lower voltage options, so wiring and contact ratings stay manageable. Still, you want a stable supply and proper insulation. No shortcuts there.
Material & Design: Quartz, Halogen, and R7s
The tube is quartz, and there’s a good reason. It handles thermal shock, lets UV through, and stays chemically steady. No drama, just dependable performance. Inside, the halogen fill keeps the surface clean. That means less blackening and steady output over the life of the lamp. It’s the kind of detail you don’t notice until it keeps your process running smoothly. And the R7s connector? It’s a straight, two-pin design that locks in fast and carries the current without extra hardware. Simple. Tough. Built for the vibration of the factory floor.
Application & Benefits: Fast Heat, Easy Replacement
On industrial heating jobs—especially PET blowing lines where every second counts—you need heat that comes on fast and stays consistent. This lamp hits the target temperature quickly, then holds steady. That’s how you get repeatable part quality, shift after shift. Installation? Straightforward. The R7s makes it a drop-in replacement. Plan for adequate cooling, and you’ll keep the lamp running at stable output without burning out early. It’s the kind of reliability that makes the workday feel easier.
