Efficient indirect heating for controlled atmosphere furnaces.
In heat treatment and annealing processes, product quality depends entirely on precise temperature control within a controlled atmosphere. Any contact between flue gases and the product introduces the risk of oxidation, surface damage and rejected material with direct consequences for yield and operating costs.
Gas-fired radiant tubes eliminate this risk entirely. Combustion takes place exclusively within the radiant tube, while heat is transferred by radiation to the product, with flue gases remaining completely separated from the furnace atmosphere. ICE supplies bespoke radiant tube systems for demanding thermal processing applications, precisely matched to your furnace design, temperature requirements and production objectives.
Combustion takes place entirely within the radiant tube. Heat is transferred by radiation to the product, keeping the atmosphere conditions intact. This guarantees consistent, uniform heating with no contamination risk.
U-type, W-type and P-type radiant tubes, available in cast, seamless and welded construction. Suitable for process temperatures up to 1200°C.
ICE designs complete furnace heating solutions precisely matched to your specific process, for maximum efficiency, product quality and operational reliability with full involvement from engineering through to commissioning.

A radiant tube heats a furnace indirectly: combustion takes place inside the tube and only radiant heat reaches the process, so combustion gases never touch the product.
Whenever the furnace atmosphere must stay clean or controlled — typical in heat treatment processes such as annealing, hardening and tempering under protective atmospheres.
ICE supplies U-type, W-type and P-type radiant tubes for process temperatures up to 1200 °C, matched to your furnace geometry and burner configuration.
