On the floor, every minute the SIPA XTRA sits idle is money you’re not making. When the heating tunnel starts drifting, preform stretch gets inconsistent, you burn resin, and whole batches turn into scrap. We built this SIPA XTRA IR lamp to meet the original spec, so you can swap it in without compromises and keep the line moving. What matters under the hood We matched the lamp to the SIPA XTRA heating profile: quartz tube, tuned short-wave output, so energy hits the preform wall fast and even. Rated at 1500W, 230V, with an R7s connector, it drops into the same sockets, brackets, and wiring as the OEM unit. The filament layout and reflector geometry are set to hold the thermal pattern across the heating zone—no hot spots, no cold edges. In practice, that translates to stable stretch ratios and repeatable wall distribution, cycle after cycle. Why it fits the SIPA XTRA This lamp was engineered for the XTRA’s heating tunnel—same footprint, same electrical interface, same temperature response curve. That direct compatibility keeps changeover tight, often under 30 minutes, so you can swap the lamp and get back to production. You get consistent preform heating, fewer rejects, and predictable output. And because it delivers original-spec performance at a price closer to a standard replacement than to an OEM invoice, you cut cost without risking uptime. A few shop-floor notes Installation is straightforward, but double-check lamp orientation and reflector alignment inside the tunnel. Even a small misalignment shifts the heat profile and shows up in bottle quality. Keep the quartz surface clean—dust and oil cut IR transmission and can shorten service life. You can expect consistent output over 5,000+ hours, with output drift under 5%. If you run 24/7, plan replacements during scheduled maintenance windows to avoid unplanned stops.
