IR Twin Tube Lamps
Twin tube lamps can be single or double ended and are special IR emitters consisting of two quartz tubes, that have been fused together. Due to this design these lamps have an improved mechanical robustness and stability, and offer the possibility to enhance the applied power density. They are available from short IR-A to medium-wave IR-B emitters.
In addition, twin-tube lamps offer special customisation options: Each tube can contain a different filament, which determines colour temperature, heating length and segmentation, among other things, and can be tailored precisely to customer needs and process requirements in combination with a reflective coating.

Model range
Golden Coated Lamps
Lamps with gold coating on the outside of the quartz glass optimise power density through maximum reflectivity and direct the emission precisely onto the target material. Various circumferences and coverings are likewise possible. Golden coated lamps are a perfect alternative to temperature-stable white coating for application areas where energy saving, optimisation and efficiency are the goals.
Up to 5 Metres Lamp
Ushio also offers twin tube lamps of up to 5 metres in length, which appeal to the glass processing industry, for example. These lamps offer a higher power density and flexible connection and control options with less installation effort. The positioning of the temperature-sensitive pinching area outside the heating zone makes them particularly suitable for applications where wide webs need to be heated. Waterproof versions are likewise available.
Double Tube Lamps
For customers who require a similarly high power density of twin-tube lamps but are looking for a cost-effective alternative, Ushio offers double-tube lamps. These lamps consist of two parallel single-tube lamps connected at both ends by bases. They are available with electrical connection on one or two sides. Different lengths are available based on customer requests.
