Optimum heating economy and efficiency

Philips infrared lamps are the optimum choice for maximum economy and efficiency in the rearing of pigs, chickens and other livestock, as well as in many other situations where heat is needed. These compact reflector lamps offer instant, accurately controllable heat where and when it is needed. Installation is quick and easy, with no need for costly building work, and the location and intensity of heating can easily be changed at any time.

Ideal for animal rearing

Experience shows that infrared radiant heat makes a significant contribution to optimising animal rearing results. Growth is more rapid because animals do not need to expend energy on maintaining body temperature. In addition, the risk of infection is reduced because bedding is kept dry, and radiant heat is draught-free. Earlier farrowing is promoted, especially during winter, and mortality rates are greatly reduced, as young animals can be separated from the mother at an earlier age under infrared heating.

Precisely controllable heat delivery

Optimum economy is achieved not only by low-cost installation, but also by high-efficiency heat delivery to exactly where it is needed. Low thermal inertia of the infrared lamps means there is no delay for warming-up, and conversely heating stops virtually instantly when the lamps are switched off. Heat delivery is precisely controllable, either manually or by the use of an electronic control system.

Choice of lamp types

Philips offers a choice of two infrared lamp types for radiant heating applications. The R125 blown-bulb types give the lowest possible initial investment, and are available in a wide range of wattages from 150W to 375W.These lamps are also available with a hard glass bulb with high mechanical and thermal strength, and resistance to sudden cooling and water splashes. The optional red lacquered types reduce visible light output (glare) by 75% in situations where visible light is not required.

The alternative PAR38 pressed glass reflector lamps offer optimum lifetime economy thanks to their higher efficiency. These lamps allow energy savings of around 30% to be achieved as a result of their highly efficient reflector and refractor lens design, which ensures that heat is directly precisely to the area where it is needed with minimal spillage. For example a 100W PAR38 lamp radiates the same amount of heat in an 80 cm circle at a 65 cm height as a 150W R125 lamp, while a 175W PAR38 has the same heating effect as a 250W R125 lamp. These PAR38 lamps have a hard glass bulb for optimum resistance to breakage caused by mechanical or thermal shock. PAR38 lamps are also available with red lacquered glass to reduce visual light output

Long 5,000 hour lifetime

Contributing further to their outstanding economy, all the Philips infrared lamps have a long 5,000 hour lifetime. All types have a universal burning position, except for PAR38 with red lacquered glass, which have a base-up ±45° burning position.

Applications

• Agricultural: breeding and rearing of pigs, poultry, calves, foals, dogs etc.
• Veterinary clinics, pet shops, zoos, beauty parlours
• Industrial: heating, drying, baking, carbonising, melting, etc.
• Personal care, hair drying, beauty care, solariums
• General: hot food displays, bathrooms, cooker hoods, space heatings, hobbies.

The abbreviations as used in the subheader/pridcode have the following meanings:
C = Clear R = Red S = Satinised H = Hard glass
