5. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for effective and safe operation of your infrared paint curing lamp.

1. Preparation: Ensure the area to be cured is clean and free of dust. Position the lamp to cover the desired baking area (approximately 120x100cm).
2. Power On: Turn on the main power switch. The infrared heating elements will begin to glow red.
3. Temperature Setting: The lamp is designed to operate within a temperature range of 40°C to 100°C. Adjust the distance from the surface and curing time based on paint manufacturer recommendations and desired curing temperature.
4. Curing Process: The shortwave infrared technology effectively dries the paint layer from the inside out, promoting strong coating adhesion and a glossy finish. Monitor the curing process to prevent overheating or under-curing.
5. Power Off: Once curing is complete, turn off the main power switch.
6. Cool Down: Allow the lamp to cool down completely before moving or storing it. The aluminum alloy body aids in heat dissipation.
