Quartz heating elements are generally considered better than ceramic heating elements due to their efficiency and direct heat transmission capabilities.
5 reasons why quartz heating elements might be your best choice
1. Efficiency in Energy Consumption
Quartz heaters consume less energy than ceramic heaters to produce the same level of heat.
This is primarily because quartz heaters utilize infrared radiation to directly transmit energy to the target area, minimizing energy losses.
In contrast, ceramic heaters rely on convection heating, which involves heating the air around the heater.
This method often results in a significant portion of the heat being lost as it follows the air currents, rather than being directed to the intended target.
2. Direct Heat Transmission
The design of quartz infrared heaters, where the coiled wire heating element is either contained within or wrapped around a quartz tube, allows for efficient direct heat transmission.
Quartz is transparent to infrared, meaning that the energy generated by the element is not absorbed by the quartz but is instead transmitted directly to the target.
This direct transmission of energy in the form of infrared radiation is more efficient than the convection heating used by ceramic heaters, which heats the surrounding air rather than the target directly.
3. Variety and Customization
Quartz heating elements are available in various shapes and sizes, allowing for customization based on specific heating needs.
4. High Operating Temperatures
They can handle the highest operating temperatures and watt loadings, making them suitable for demanding heating applications.
5. Long Life
Quartz elements have the longest inherent life among electric heating elements, reducing the need for frequent replacements.
