1.

Intended use of the product

This product serves exclusively to accelerate the drying/
curing of putty, filler, base and clear coats. This applies
to both water-borne and solvent-based products. It´s site
of use is the preparation area and finishing area. Within
the automotive industry and vehicle repair sectors, it is
used to cure small areas before polishing. The product
must not be used for other purposes than the described
drying processes. The maximum ambient temperature
during operation should not exceed 40°C. The IRT 4-1
PcAuto and IRT 4-2 PcAuto dryers must not be used in
spray booths or within a distance of 5m from spraying
activities in order to avoid explosion risk. This prohibition
is also valid for the IRT 4-20 PcAuto & IRT 4-10 PcAuto, if
not combined with the IRT Dust Cover and Surveillance
System (document 714147).

Product description

The dryer is an essential aid for paint repair on small and
medium sized areas.
The easily manoeuvrable IRT 4-1 Pc Auto, 4-2 Pc Auto
4-10 PcAuto and 4-20 Pc Auto is equipped with one
or two compact cassettes. Each cassette is equipped
with four Infra Red (IR) lamps with gold plated free-form
reflectors and a ventilator. The design, combined with a
gas spring, makes positioning of the cassette simple. The
IR lamps are easily exchangeable and the reflectors are
protected against mechanical damage by a mesh. The
dryer has a selection of sophisticated programs.
2.1 Particular advantages
2.1.1 Higher quality
Using the dryer when you cure putty also improves th e
quality of the top coat. The short wave IR curing enables
the coating to be cured from the inside outwards. This
prevents solvents to be trapped inside the coating and
ensures a fast and high quality curing.
2.1.2 Short drying times – 60 cm distance

temperature raise. It ensures that the programmed dry-
ing/curing temperature is maintained, thereby achieving
optimum curing, without risk for "over burning".
2.1.4 Hi-tech shape of reflectors with short wave IR
By using short-wave technology and gold-coated reflec-
tors with a high tech shape important advantages are
achieved. Firstly, by radiating only the needed areas
and not heating any air, a lower energy consumption is
achieved. Secondly, a more uniform surface temperature
is obtained by distributing the energy evenly. Thirdly, a
larger drying surface is achieved. Fourthly, less radiation
outside the curing area.
