Technology
Clean and Reliable
For the food sector, infrared modules are manufactured in stainless steel and fitted with a wire mesh to afford mechanical protection.
An additional foil frame can, if requested, protect the food from any falling particles.
Infrared emitters from Heraeus are very responsive and can
be switched on and off inside 1-2 seconds.
All infrared systems can be controlled so that any unexpected or unwanted conveyor belt stoppage will have minimal effect on
the equipment or product. Emitter failure detection
is also incorporated within the control system.
The parameters required for any system can be established in one of our test centres or by using hire modules on site.
The investigations are carried out by experienced engineers and technicians, who can assist in the selection of the right emitters and systems to suit a particular product and process.
