Medium Wave

Emitters of medium wave are spectrally placed directly next to short-wave infrared.

The radiation of medium wave is well absorbed in particular by liquids such as organic solvents or aqueous media. A variety of polymers do also interact in this field. Infrared emitters of this category are, therefore, particularly used in drying processes or in the thermoforming and machining processes of plastics.

Another difference from the short-wave radiation the penetration depth of the generated heat. Thus, the heating of a whole body can be controlled by the use of the medium wave.

By employment of double coils, which are produced on site at Radium, it is possible to achieve a high power density even at low color temperatures. This technique allows wires with small diameters to be processed, which makes radiators of the medium wave have a quick response.

Radium develops and manufactures infrared emitters of the medium wave on customer request.
