Getting Your Infrared Heater Voltage Right (So You Don’t Fry Your Gear)

Bending glass is a delicate dance. You need exactly the right amount of heat to hit that softening point, but if you’re off by a fraction, you’re looking at surface defects and wasted material. We build the infrared lamps that provide that heat, but here’s the real headache for most engineers: the power grid.

The Voltage Headache: 110V to 575V

Depending on where your shop is, your power is going to be all over the place. Here is the deal: if you take a lamp built for 110V and plug it into a 480V or 575V industrial line, it’s toast. Instantly. To stop that from happening, we customize the filament resistance and winding to fit whatever standard you’re running. If you go with higher voltage—like 480V or 575V—you can get the same wattage while pulling less current. That’s a win. It means you can use thinner wires and you don’t have to worry as much about voltage dropping across those long cable runs in a massive furnace. And if you’re just swapping out parts in an old machine? You just need a replacement that matches your existing transformer exactly. Simple.

Stop Worrying About Your Voltage When Moving Furnaces

Getting those thermal gradients just right in a bottle annealing furnace is a bit of an art. You’re trying to bleed out the internal stress of the glass without ruining the batch. But here is the real headache: moving your gear across borders. The heating element usually isn’t the problem. It’s the local power grid. That’s why we build our IR lamps to handle 110V, 480V, and 575V. We want to make sure that when you flip the switch in a new facility, you aren’t staring at a blown fuse or a melted circuit.
