Gas Catalytic Infrared Heater operates at 1,700°F.

Press Release Summary:




SunCat(TM) Medium-Wave Heater cures solvent-based, water-based, and powder coatings on plastics, wood, wood composites, steel, sheet metal, aluminum, and fiberglass. Centralized blower feeds oxygen to face of heater, converting it into thermoreactor. It also acts as convective source of air to heat parts that are not in line of sight of infrared. Offered in various sizes with inputs from 14,500-132,000 BTUH, heater can be installed independently or inside oven enclosures.

Gas Catalytic Infrared Heater Operates at 1700° F, Allowing Faster Cure Times



Gas catalytic technology has been used for decades as a safe, cost effective means of curing. Wisconsin Infrared Systems' SunCat(TM), a Gas Catalytic Medium-Wave Heater, is used to cure solvent based, water based and powder coatings on plastics, wood, wood composites, steel, sheet metal, aluminum and fiberglass.

No other gas catalytic IR heater cures faster than SunCat(TM). This state of the art heater uses the latest technology in catalyst and operates at temperatures up to 1700° F. The heaters utilize a unique centralized blower system that feeds oxygen to the face of each heater, converting it into a thermoreactor. The blower also acts as a convective source of air, to heat parts that are not in "line of sight" of the infrared. In addition to high temperature operation, Wisconsin Infrared Systems also offers a lower temperature gas catalytic heater for those coatings requiring lower temperature.

SunCat(TM) gas catalytic heaters are offered in various sizes and heat inputs from 14,500 to 132,000 BTUH and can be installed independently for spot curing or inside oven enclosures. They are used in standard and custom ovens, batch or conveyor styles, and can be provided with many additional features such as: full PLC control, operation on different fuels, Watch Dog® Oven Management System and full installation as a turn-key system. They require minimal maintenance and are CE approved for use with solvents.
