About Electric Heaters

Electric heaters generate heat by passing an electric current through a high-resistance material. They use a radiant flat panel emitter, a radiant reflective element, a flexible heater element, or a tubular element. Radiant flat panel emitters may be surfaced with quartz cloth, glass, stainless steel, or ceramic material. Radiant reflective elements may use quartz or sheathed tubular elements, a straight or hairpin design, or a custom shape or bend. There are two types of flexible heater elements: etched foil and wire wound. The former is etched into the heater’s surface. Tubular elements for electric heaters may be single-ended, double-ended, round, flat, or triangulated. The number of elements is also an important consideration.
