Welcome to arcadia reptile the home of. effective animal welfare products the. arcadia reptile deep heat projector is. an innovative new par 30 heat lamp. designed to provide energy from infrared. light to captive reptiles that has a. higher level or percentage of. bioavailability than other lightless. heat sources as its projection is within. infrared a and lots of infrared b. arcadia reptile has worked for over 10. years on refining and improving heat. projector technology and continues to do. so the product always had two prime uses. in animal care and these were laid out. simply from the start of our research. and development. as a brand we strive to see ongoing. increases in captive animal welfare. firstly we wanted to create a lamp that. would more naturally energize an animal. for those keepers that chose to use.

Heaters amid no visible light such as. heat mats ceramic heat emitters radiant. heat panels and heated cables. these heaters only emit infrared c which. is not provided directly from the sun. infrared sea has the lowest percentage. of bioavailability. and penetrates the dermis to the. shallowest level. this energy warms the earth and is also. used by reptiles to obtain belly heat. for these keepers moving to a genuine. deep heat projector will increase the. quantity of energy able to push more. deeply into the dermis and is therefore. an increase in bioavailable energy the. other prime use for the dp projector was. as a buddy alongside a tungsten or. halogen flood. in this way we see the greatest increase. in bioavailability and welfare standards. the tungsten or halogen flood is bright. inspires basking quickly warming and.

Infrared a rich. the deep heat projector when used. alongside the tungsten or halogen. creates a merged basking zone below the. lamps then provides the missing in. thread b adds more infrared a and fills. the spectrum within infrared as closely. as possible to the terrestrial daylight. the two lamps work in unison to create a. highly usable and deeply penetrating. provision of heat just like the sun the. sun is perfectly full spectrum within. our layer of the atmosphere from uvb to. infrared b as a single source. as keepers we now use an array of lamps. to mimic the terrestrial spectrum as. closely as tech allows us. this means that it is now typical for. basking species to be provided with a. halogen flood and a deep heat projector. a pro t5 high output t5 uv system. and a genuine jungle dawn led bar all. working together to mimic sunlight the.

Heat lamps fill the infrared a and. infrared b part of the spectrum the pro. t5 provides a targetable uv index and. the led bar greatly increases lux which. inspires natural basking. is used as a direct energy itself and. allows a sustained growth of suitable. plants and grasses. the sun provides us with infrared a and. infrared b directly. these wavelengths do not release much. energy into the air or water vapor in. the air. it is infrared sea that does this. now infrared sea is produced through. convection. what does this mean. so the sun heats the terrain directly. and the terrain stores and reflects this. energy. this energy undergoes a shift upwards in. wavelength into infrared sea and is then. readmitted into the air which warms the. air and water vapor. it's the infrared sea within the earth's. budget that creates heated thermals and.

Wind and is that heat that we fill to. obtain the very best results by using a. genuine deep heat projector the lamp. should be fitted over thick and ideally. dark rock. dark slate seems to work best. this provides a stable basking area for. the animal to rest upon to receive. highly bioavailable energy directly to. the body. we also create a heat store in the slate. that is readmitted into the enclosure. warming the air. in reality the slate becomes a heat mat. or ceramic heat emitter just naturally. after time the slate will stabilize and. the animal can easily selfregulate. between basking and resting. this is all of course boosted in terms. of percentage of bioavailability if the. deep heat projector is partnered with a. tungsten or halogen flood lamp. especially for diurnal sun basking. species. tunstan halogen and deep heat projectors.

Should be controlled with good quality. dimming thermostats this will ensure. that the lamp is only providing the. amount of heat that is required this can. also reduce energy spend and lengthen. the life of all lamp types. deep heat projectors are very well. insulated and reflected and if caged do. not need to be used in reflected domes. for those used on top of mesh vivs they. can be used with five and a half inch. clamp lamps with safety mesh such as. clamp clamp and clamp lamp graphite. genuine deep heat projectors are safe. effective easy to use have a long life. and represent an increase in the. bioavailability of energy provision. they are also nearly twice as efficient. what for what than ceramic lamps we also. need to measure temperature in a. slightly different way. dial and strip thermometers are only.

measuring heated air at the position. where they are sighted. this can differ greatly from the energy. or heat that is available at basking. from above. good noncontact thermometers can be. used to measure the rock itself. we can then use other thermometer types. to watch what is happening to the air. this process is not instant it can take. a week of use of the deep heat projector. to get to the full temperature and. within this time it will also heat the. rock and start cycles of heating and. cooling daily. genuine arcadia reptile deep heat. projectors help us as keepers to provide. wildlife energy for our animals. arcadia reptile where animal welfare and. good science matters. you
