500W Halogen Lamp for 220-240V: Power, Precision, and Industrial Heat
We built this 500W halogen lamp for those tight industrial jobs where control is everything and space is at a premium. It’s compact, it’s intense, and it runs straight off 220-240V mains. That means you can plug it right into your standard shop power. No extra transformers. No fuss.
Power and Voltage: The Sweet Spot
At 500W, this thing throws focused, radiant heat exactly where you need it. Fast. Localized. The 220-240V rating keeps the current draw sensible, so you don’t need heavy-duty wiring. It makes panel integration straightforward. Here’s the trade-off, though: you get a ton of heat density in a small package. But that also means the quartz envelope gets seriously hot. So you have to respect the mounting hardware and give it proper clearance.
What It’s Made Of: Built to Last
The halogen cycle is the secret sauce. It keeps the filament stable by putting evaporated tungsten right back where it belongs. That’s why this lamp lasts way longer than a regular incandescent. And the envelope? It’s quartz, not glass. That’s because quartz can handle the extreme filament temperatures and won’t crack when things heat up fast. The connections are designed for industrial fixtures, too. Solid contact. Easy swap-outs when it’s time for a replacement.
Where It Shines: Real-World Applications
Use this lamp whenever you need fast, directional heat. Curing coatings. Preheating small parts. Plastic processing. Test fixtures. It fires up instantly and hits operating temperature in a flash. That speed can really cut down your cycle times. But remember, this is intense heat. The surrounding components have to be rated for it, and the fixture needs proper ventilation.
