The drying lamp 250 is a heat radiating infrared lamp. It serves the purpose of pre-drying dipped zirconia frame work in order to prevent damage to the furnace heating elements by acid contained in the Colour Liquids.

The lamp should be positioned under an extraction hood, since otherwise metal parts in the closer environment could be corroded by steam which develops during the drying process.

The drying time of the frameworks depends on the dimensions of the bridge. For bridges of up to five elements a drying time of 45 minutes is recommended, for larger bridges up to one and half hours. The zirconia framework should always be placed on a fired object holder, which in turn must be placed relatively near the lamp.

This lamp was designed exclusively for Zirkonzahn materials.
