PRODUCTIVE, DEPENDABLE, EFFICIENT
Infratech Spray Booth Retrofit Systems are designed to cure today's high-tech coatings with superior speed and quality. Designed to operate in four independent zones, these systems can easily handle a simple panel repair as well as compete repaints. Multiple zone control allows you to heat only those panels which require curing. Rather than heating the entire booth as in hot air systems, you save energy costs by heating nothing by the repaired panels. The high-intensity quartz emitters are so effective that even complete repaints can be cured in 20-30 minutes. And, because the system has total temperature control you won't be sacrificing safety or quality in order to achieve the production that is vital to bottom line profits.
HIGH INTENSITY QUARTZ EMITTERS
At the heart of INFRATECH Retrofit systems are powerful high intensity quartz emitters. The 5/8" diameter semi-translucent quartz tube along with a special alloy filament produces temperatures exceeding 1500 degrees F. These quartz emitters are custom manufactured "in-house" by INFRATECH to guarantee the exact wavelength (2.35 microns) most effective for curing oxygen/carbon based (organic) compounds; compounds that make up all liquid automotive coatings.

Infratech quartz emitters have a long life expectancy of 5000 hours. Replacements are reasonably priced and are always in stock. In order to achieve even heat distribution the INFRATECH Retrofit System utilizes special alloy 60-degree wide-angle reflectors. This reflector design directs the radiant energy to the surface at right angles providing uniform heat over the entire target eliminating "hot spots." In addition, the reflector is designed to significantly expand the heated pattern for maximum coverage.

CURING FROM THE INSIDE OUT
Unlike heated air make-up systems that depend on hot air to dry paint from the top layers down, quartz infrared systems use narrow energy waves that pass through the air with minimum molecular contact. As the waves continue into the liquid coating, the denser molecular structure of the paint absorbs more of the energy. When the energy waves contact the solid substrate, all the remaining energy is absorbed and conducted evenly throughout the panel. When the panel reaches its point of emissitivity (125-175 degrees Fahrenheit) the energy is conducted away, first back through the liquid coating and finally into the air. The air is always cooler than the liquid coating and substrate. The 2.35 micron wave length (high-intensity medium wave) insures the fastest possible cure without the danger of damaging heat sensitive parts of the car.

This technology offers the user many advantages; including far superior curing speed, improved gloss, reduced orange peel, superior adhesion, and a considerable reduction in energy costs. Since infrared does not depend on heating the air, production and quality are not challenged by cold and wet weather.
