An infrared tube specification sheet should allow a manufacturer, maintenance team and buyer to identify the same part without assumptions. Electrical data alone are not enough. The drawing must also define the active zone, quartz geometry, ends, reflector and installation orientation.

Identify the Part and Application

Record the original code, equipment model, lamp position and process function. A single machine may contain several similar-looking lamps with different circuits or heated lengths.


Define Electrical Data

Specify rated voltage, wattage, phase or circuit arrangement and controller type. Include measured resistance only as supporting evidence and identify the test condition.


Build the Dimension Table

Dimension Reference Why it matters
Total length End to end Machine fit
Heated length Start and end of active element Temperature profile
Cold ends Both sides separately Seal and holder protection
Tube section Diameter or twin-tube width and height Clip compatibility

Document Ends and Optical Features

Show caps, leads, connectors, ceramic parts and orientation. For coated lamps, include coverage, working side and a clocking reference. Photographs should accompany, not replace, the drawing.

Use YFR custom replacement tubes and infrared lamp families as starting references.


Control Revisions and Approval

Give the drawing a revision, approval date and authorised tolerances. Inspect the first article against it and retain resistance, dimension and process-test records for future orders.


Frequently Asked Questions

Can total length replace heated length?

No. They describe different parts of the lamp.

Should both cold ends be measured?

Yes. They may not be symmetrical.

Is a photo sufficient for reflector orientation?

A drawing with a clocking reference is more reliable.

Why record the controller?

The lamp and switching method must be electrically compatible.


Create a Replacement Drawing

Send YFR the original sample data and equipment references for a controlled lamp drawing.
