OMEGALUX® QH and QC Series 
quartz infrared radiant panel 
heaters have the most powerful 
power output of any infrared panel 
heater available. They use a fused 
quartz glass face that is grooved 
to provide coil support. The QC 
series uses a 98% pure fused 
quartz and the QH series uses  
a 99% pure fused quartz face.  
This allows for watt densities 
up to 60 W/in2 with a maximum 
temperature rating of 1800°F 
(981°C). The glass face is 
cleanable and can withstand great 
thermal shock. The housing is 
made of rugged aluminized steel 
with the electrical terminal housing 
on the back. Mounting studs for 
easy installation are provided, 
allowing the heaters  
to be operated face up or down. 
An optional 476 cm ( 
thermowell is also available for 
use with type K thermocouples  
for temperature control. 
The best application for the QC 
and QH series heaters are where 
you have little space and need 
maximum power. They are made 
in building block sizes from 4 x 
10" up to 12 x 12", many in dual 
voltage models to allow for extra 
flexibility in installation.
