RAYMAX ® 1525
RAYMAX ® 1525 —
Unique Design Allows
Quick Removal and
Replacement of
the Element and
Reflectors
Watlow's RAYMAX ® 1525 is a rugged radiant heater with a
unique design that allows quick removal and replacement of
the element and reflectors. Instead of dismantling the heater,
the parts are simply removed from the front. Replacing dirty
reflectors often can improve heating efficiency by up to
30 percent.
The RAYMAX 1525 is available with either a fast responding
quartz element or an Incoloy
® - sheathed WATROD round
tubular element. Both are supported by stainless steel
hardware in an extruded aluminum housing.
All stock units come with 1 5 ⁄
8
inch long, 3 ⁄
8
inch-16 thread
mounting bolts that slide along the heater's length to
accommodate mounting considerations.
