Industrial CRC00317 Ceramic Infrared Heater Assembly

The CRC00317 Ceramic Infrared Heater Assembly is an industrial ceramic infrared emitter that converts electrical energy into medium-wave radiant heat for localized heating, delivering 230 V AC and 500 W through a high-temperature ceramic surface. It emits in the 2–10 μm infrared range for non-contact heating of surrounding materials and is commonly mounted with spring clips or panel mounts in heater arrays, infrared heating panels, and OEM equipment used in industrial heating systems, plastic forming equipment, drying processes, packaging machinery, paint curing systems, and environmental test chambers. With a long service life often exceeding 10,000 hours depending on duty cycle, this model serves as a standard replacement in 500 W class ceramic IR heaters from Tempco, Fostoria/Chromalox, and Watlow.
