DESCRIPTION

1. 

The OKA radiant heater is suitable for process heating 

in non-hazardous areas protected from rain, snow 

or splashing, where heating element temperatures in 
excess of 1382°F (750°C) will not present the risk of fire or 
explosion. This heater is not intended for use in comfort 

heating applications.

2. 

The OKA heater is available with metal sheathed, quartz 

lamp or quartz tube heating elements. Use heaters with 
metal sheathed elements where there is heavy vibration or 
mechanical shock. Quartz tube or quartz lamp elements 

are very fragile and require extreme care in handling. 
Heaters utilizing quartz tubes or quartz lamps are 
unsuitable for applications in locations where the risk of 

heavy vibration or mechanical shock exists.

3. 

A minimum of handling of the quartz sheath is 

recommended since any type of contamination on the 
sheath may reduce service life.
