Power in a compact package
Let’s talk about what this Smart electric heater is really packing. It runs on 400V and cranks out 2500W, all from a halogen tube. That’s a serious amount of heat packed into a small footprint. We made it 300mm long on purpose—because in machinery, space is often at a premium. And that 400V setup? It’s a smart move. It lowers the current draw, so you don’t need heavy-duty wiring, and it cuts down on energy loss. The 2500W power is there to make sure it can handle the heat demands of high-speed PET blowing without the temperature dipping when things get busy.
Built to last
The heart of this heater is its quartz envelope, filled with halogen and coated for protection. That coating does the heavy lifting, preventing hot spots and standing up to the chemicals in the process environment. The result? Consistent heat output that doesn’t fade, and a heater that won’t give up on you prematurely. Then there’s the R7s base. It’s a straight-up industrial connection, and it makes replacement a breeze. Seriously. Just slide it in and wire it up—no tools needed. This design keeps contact resistance low and stays tight, even after countless cycles of heating up and cooling down.
The sweet spot for PET blowing
When you’re blowing PET, you need heat that responds instantly and stays steady. This heater delivers with focused shortwave infrared, warming the preform without turning the whole area into an oven. The whole combo—the 400V power, the coated quartz, and the R7s connector—makes it a straightforward upgrade for your existing line. But here’s the thing: that high power density means you’ve got to make sure your machine has proper cooling and shielding. It’s all about keeping both the components and your team safe.
