Series FSA

PROTHERM, LLC™ Series FSA electric infrared heaters are highly efficient, fast response, medium wavelength heaters with air flow designed for use in general industrial process heating and drying applications for sensitive products such as coatings on webs or textiles.

Airflow is directed through holes between heating elements to help break up vapor barriers from evaporating moisture. This increases the electric infrared drying efficiency and can help quickly cool the heater and product upon a line stop. The air supply can be provided from a variety of sources that is appropriate for the application.

Series FSA electric infrared heaters:

• Operates at element temperatures up to 2100 f (2.0 micron-peak).
• Designs up to 50 watts per square inch.
• Unique serpentine metallic elements.
• Perforated face for air impingement.
• Highly efficient and effective.
• Efficiencies exceeding 89% have been proven, the highest in the industry.
• Heats up to processing temperatures in about 30 seconds.
• Cools down to “safe” temperatures in 30 seconds or less.
