A Quartz Heater is an electric heating device that uses a quartz tube as the heating element's outer shell and transfers heat through infrared radiation. Simply put, it converts electrical energy into heat energy and releases it outwards as infrared light waves, rapidly raising the temperature of surrounding objects or a localized space. Due to its fast heating speed, strong penetration, and high thermal efficiency, quartz heaters are widely used in home heating, industrial drying, and various heating processes.

The core component of a quartz heater is the heating element (usually made of nickel-chromium alloy wire or carbon fiber) located inside a quartz glass tube. When current passes through the heating element, it generates high temperatures. The quartz tube plays a crucial role here:
Quartz glass has excellent infrared transmittance, allowing the heat generated by the heating element to be efficiently radiated in the form of far-infrared rays.
The quartz tube can withstand extremely high temperature fluctuations (good thermal stability) and protects the internal heating element from oxidation by external air.
Most quartz heaters have a polished reflector on the back, allowing heat to be directed like a flashlight beam.
Among various heating devices, Quartz Heater stand out due to their unique physical properties:
Noticeable heat can be felt within seconds of turning on, eliminating the need for prolonged preheating like oil-filled radiators.
Extremely high electrothermal conversion rate; most electrical energy is converted into effective infrared radiation.
Infrared radiation heating is similar to sunlight, producing no draft, not stirring up indoor dust, and not making the air overly dry like air conditioning.
Quartz tubes are acid and corrosion resistant, giving them a significant advantage in industrial heating applications (such as pickling tank heating).
Thanks to their efficient infrared heating technology, Quartz Heater are found in many aspects of life:
In winter, portable quartz tube heaters are a popular choice for many families. Their compact size makes them suitable for localized heating in studies, bathrooms, or bedrooms.
In coating production lines, food baking, plastic molding, and semiconductor processing, industrial quartz heating tubes are used for precise temperature control and rapid drying.
Due to the penetrating effect of far-infrared rays on the human body, quartz heating devices of specific frequencies are often used as an adjunct to physiotherapy to help improve local blood circulation.
When purchasing a quartz heater, it is recommended to pay attention to the following points to ensure safety and durability:
Household products should have overheat protection and automatic power-off function upon tipping.
High-quality transparent or milky white quartz tubes have a longer lifespan and better thermal stress performance.
During use, avoid direct splashing of water onto the high-temperature operating quartz tube (although quartz is resistant to thermal shock, precautions should still be taken), and regularly clean the dust on the reflector to maintain thermal efficiency.
As an efficient, environmentally friendly, and convenient heating solution, quartz heaters achieve an "instant heat" heating experience through infrared radiation technology. Whether providing warmth to homes in the cold winter or delivering precise heat in harsh industrial environments, it is an important tool for thermal energy.
