Meet the 400V Halogen Fan Heater: Built for the Heat
We built this 400V halogen fan heater for the tough stuff—the high-temp industrial jobs that can’t afford to slow down. Think PET blowing and pre-heating plastics. When your process depends on steady, localized heat, this thing is your workhorse.
What’s Under the Hood
Let’s get into the specifics. It runs on 400V at 2500W. That higher voltage is a clever trick. It means lower current draw, which keeps voltage drop low on long wire runs and lets you use smaller conductors. The 300mm tube is short and sweet, giving you a footprint that fits into the tight corners of blow molding machines and conveyor lines. It heats up fast. Seriously fast. But here’s the catch: that power density means the space around it needs good airflow to handle the ambient heat.
The Design That Takes a Beating
Inside, you’ve got a halogen shortwave element, tucked into a coated quartz tube. That coating is a lifesaver—it shields the element from thermal shock and chemical splashes, so it keeps going strong even with constant on-off cycles. And when it comes to connections, we’ve kept it simple. The R7s connector is a standard, direct fit. Plug it in, and you’re good to go—solid contact, no fuss. If you’re dealing with heavy vibration, the Sk15 base is the way to go. It locks the heater in place and keeps the terminals engaged, no matter how much the machine shakes.
Why It Works on the Line
On a PET blowing line, this heater shines. It gives you that fast, focused heat right where you need it, pre-heating the parisons and keeping your cycle times tight. The fan makes sure the heat lands exactly where it should, which means your results are consistent, every single time. The 400V operation, the tough coated tube, and the standard connectors all work together to make maintenance easy and downtime short. Just remember, you’ll get that reliable output as long as your machine’s cooling and mounting are up to the task of handling this heater’s power.
