Inside the Heat: A Real Look at This 1300W Halogen Lamp
So, we built this 1300W halogen quartz heating lamp for one reason: to pack a serious amount of heat into a small space. It’s rated at 1300 watts, which means it throws off a ton of infrared energy. The kind that gets your oven or process chamber up to temperature fast. And that 150mm tube length? That wasn’t an accident. It was a deliberate choice to focus the heat right where you need it. This gives you a tight thermal profile without having to use a bulky heater that takes up way too much room. For industrial ovens that need to recover quickly and hold steady, this wattage and size combo is a sweet spot.
What It’s Made Of
The heart of this thing is a quartz envelope. Why? Because it can take the heat. Seriously high temperatures, no problem. It also handles sudden temperature shifts without cracking, which is a huge relief. Inside, the halogen cycle is doing its quiet, steady work. It redeposits evaporated tungsten back onto the filament. That means the lamp stays bright and consistent for longer, and you don’t get that annoying blackening that kills performance over time. And the best part? It’s designed to drop right into the standard oven lamp fittings you already have. So you can get it wired up and running with minimal fuss.
Why It Works for You
In an oven, this lamp shines because it heats surfaces directly with infrared. It’s focused, it’s efficient, and it helps you cut down on cycle times. You also get better temperature uniformity across the chamber. The 150mm form keeps the heat close to the target, so you don’t have to mess around with extra reflectors. Now, here’s the thing to keep in mind: this lamp runs hot. That’s just the reality of 1300W. So you need to make sure your oven’s thermal management and mounting hardware are up to the task of handling that concentrated heat load.
