High-Output Infrared Heat Lamp

The GE Lighting 18668 is a 2000 watt linear T3 quartz halogen lamp designed for infrared heating applications. It operates on a 230 to 250 volt supply and produces a clear finish with a 2450K colour temperature. The sleeve and leads base allows direct wiring into compatible industrial or commercial fixtures.

Sustained Thermal Performance

Continuous operation at 2000 watts generates intense infrared heat suitable for industrial processes or large-area warming. The quartz envelope maintains structural stability during extended cycles, while the rated 5000 hour lifespan provides a predictable maintenance interval for facility planning. Output remains consistent across the rated voltage range.

Installation Verification Steps

Confirm the fixture accepts a sleeve and leads base and is rated for 2000 watts at 230 to 250 volts. Verify the 13.8 inch lamp length fits within the housing without contacting reflective surfaces. Ensure the supply voltage matches the lamp rating and that wiring insulation withstands the operating temperature.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 2000 watt linear T3 quartz halogen lamp produce when running all day?

The 2000 watt infrared halogen lamp converts nearly all input power into radiant heat, so the fixture and surrounding area will become very hot during continuous operation.

What fixture or holder is required for the sleeve and leads base on this GE 18668 lamp?

You need a compatible linear T3 socket or holder designed for sleeve and leads termination that can accept a 13.8 inch quartz envelope and handle 230 to 250 volt supply.

Can this 2450K clear heat lamp replace an older linear halogen bulb of the same length and wattage?

Yes, if the existing fixture accepts a 13.8 inch T3 quartz envelope with sleeve and leads base and is rated for 2000 watts at 230 to 250 volts.
