What is Carbon Fiber Heater Element

Introduction to Carbon Fiber Heater Elements

Carbon fiber heater elements, also known as carbon fiber electric heating tubes, infrared heating tubes, infrared electric heating tubes, carbon fiber infrared heating tubes, etc., consist of a carbon fiber filament placed inside a quartz tube. The tube is vacuum-sealed, and when voltage is applied to the carbon fiber filament, it heats up and generates heat. Our products use imported carbon fiber heating elements and offer advantages such as high power capacity, high temperature resistance, strong thermal energy, long service life, and adjustable power.

Carbon fiber is a fibrous carbon material. It is a new type of material with many valuable electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties, such as greater strength than steel, lower density than aluminum, more corrosion resistance than stainless steel, higher temperature resistance than heat-resistant steel, and electrical conductivity similar to copper.

Carbon fiber heaters utilize the good thermal conductivity of carbon fiber as the heat-conducting medium at both ends, achieving rapid heating effects. Due to carbon’s insulating properties, these heaters can also be used in bathrooms.

The emergence of carbon fiber heater elements has sparked a new revolution in the electric heating field, replacing metal heating elements as an inevitable trend. Carbon fiber infrared heating elements differ from traditional electric heating tubes, such as metal wires and halogens, by offering longer service lives, high electric-to-heat conversion efficiency, infrared radiation, and environmental health benefits.

Key Performance Features and Benefits

  • Stable Electrical Performance: After being powered, carbon fiber heater elements maintain power stability within a certain tolerance range during frequent startups, shutdowns, and continuous long-term operation, without any instantaneous power surges.
  • High Thermal Efficiency: With an electric-to-heat conversion efficiency of over 95%, these tubes emit minimal visible light, saving 30% energy compared to other materials. They radiate temperatures significantly higher than traditional heaters and emit strong, absorbable infrared rays, enhancing heat transfer with minimal loss.
  • Highly Directed Heat Radiation: Designed for directed heat radiation, optimizing thermal distribution.
  • Environmental Protection: Features no light pollution and does not produce harmful ultraviolet rays or gases, offering a safer heating option.
  • High Infrared Radiation Efficiency: Infrared wavelengths range from 2.0-10μm, with excellent reflectivity, penetrability, and resonance, which helps in penetrating substances up to 7mm, enhancing food processing and paint quality through better heat application.
  • Strong Resistance to Thermal and Chemical Stress: Carbon fiber tubes are highly resistant to acids (excluding hydrofluoric acid) and offer superior resistance to thermal shock, functioning effectively even when heated to high temperatures and then rapidly cooled.
  • Long Service Life and Durability: Lasts for over 6000 hours, withstanding frequent use without oxidation or breakdown.

Practical Applications and Health Benefits

Carbon fiber heater elements primarily emit energy in the form of far-infrared radiation, which is highly efficient and has been referred to as “the light of life,” covering over 80% of the total wavelength spectrum. It can be absorbed by moisture in the air, generating heat through resonance friction effects, quickly raising ambient temperatures. This heating method is especially effective in activating body cells, promoting blood circulation, speeding up metabolism, boosting immunity, and also offering deodorizing, dehumidifying, and antibacterial effects.
