Product Overview

Quartz infrared heater (QIH) lamps provide clean, instantaneous, precisely controlled radiant heat for applications such as baking, drying, curing, dehydrating, warming of foods, and general area warming. Unlike convection or forced-air heating, a QIH lamp reaches full output almost immediately and can be cycled on/off or dimmed for tight process control, without the lag of a heated air mass.

This 1003462 is rated 3000W at 240V with a 349mm maximum overall length. It uses clear quartz. The lamp terminates in a lead wire, no metal sleeve.

Compatible Applications

Industrial process heating: baking, drying, curing, dehydrating
Food warming and general area warming
Scientific and medical applications: infant environment warming, heat therapy, spa/sauna heating, laboratory environmental control
Semiconductor manufacturing: precise temperature and heating-zone control

Before Ordering – Verify

Confirm voltage matches 240V — QIH lamps are voltage-specific across this family; a lamp built for one voltage is not interchangeable with another
Confirm base type (Lead Wire, No Metal Sleeve) against the fixture/holder — the seven QIH base types (metal clip, R7s contact, metal sleeve, lead wire, round or flat ceramic) are not interchangeable
Confirm physical fit: MOL 349mm against the available socket-to-socket or clip-to-clip distance in the fixture
This lamp is rated for vertical burning — confirm the fixture holds it vertically
Ushio's QIH catalog does not list this part number. Dimensions, color temperature and life come from the existing ADL Supply listing; the glass, jacket, burn position, reflector and base are decoded from the part number using Ushio's part number guide. Confirm against the lamp or Ushio before ordering.
Country of manufacture is not confirmed for this part number, so none is stated here. Verify before relying on it for customs or compliance.

Safety and Handling Guidelines

Quartz infrared heater lamps generate significant heat and infrared radiation — do not touch the lamp during or immediately after operation
De-energize the fixture and allow the lamp to cool fully before installation, removal, or servicing
Do not touch the quartz envelope with bare skin during installation; oils from skin contact can cause the quartz to fail prematurely under heat — handle with clean gloves or a cloth
Install and operate only in fixtures rated for this lamp's wattage and voltage, with adequate clearance from combustible materials
Follow the manufacturer's specified burning position (horizontal, or per fixture design) — operating outside the rated position can shorten lamp life or cause failure
Follow all applicable national and local electrical and fire codes for infrared heating installations
