Technical Deep-Dive: Power and Dimensions
Here’s the thing about this greenhouse heater: it’s built to run on 400V and puts out 2500W through a halogen infrared lamp. Why 400V? Because it keeps the current lower than a 230V unit with the same wattage. That means less voltage drop over longer runs, and you can use thinner wiring. On the shop floor, that’s a real win—fewer materials, simpler install. And that 300mm tube? It packs all 2500W into a tight footprint, so you get serious heat density right where you need it.
Material and Design: Why Halogen and R7s
Inside, the halogen element sits in a quartz envelope, keeping the filament temperature steady. So the output stays consistent over the life of the lamp—no surprises, no fade. The tube’s coated finish helps manage surface temperature and pushes the energy outward where you want it. Then there’s the R7s base—straight-pin, line-voltage, and made for fixtures that mean business. It locks in fast, handles the load, and slips right in as a drop-in replacement for standard greenhouse heater setups.
Application and Benefits
In a greenhouse, you want heat that responds quickly and stays localized. This lamp hits the target area fast, so you can keep your crops warm without trying to heat the entire air. But—and this matters—that power comes concentrated. With 2500W packed into a short tube, the fixture runs hot. So make sure your socket, wiring, and mounting hardware are all rated for the wattage. And give the lamp enough airflow around it so it doesn’t overheat.
