4185 heater module maintain a high surface temperature. The reflector material also
serves as a re-emitter of medium wave (3 to 4 microns) infrared energy. This can be
beneficial in many processes depending on the absorptive properties of the material
being heated.

Dissipated power for the heaters varies with heated length and is listed in Specifications.
Heat flux density is a product of the lamp type, applied voltage, and distance between the
lamp and the target surface.
