Infrared lamp Philips PAR38 IR 175W E27 230V – PAR38 heat lamp, 175 W, E27 base, 230 V

Infrared lamp Philips PAR38 IR 175W E27 230V is a PAR38-format heat lamp with a 175 W power rating, E27 screw base and intended for 230 V mains. It produces focused infrared radiation for localised warming and spot heating in domestic or commercial environments. The lamp is suitable for heat fixtures that accept PAR38 lamps and E27 screw fittings and is designed for straightforward installation and steady operation.

Advantages

The lamp provides consistent infrared output for effective short-range heating with minimal visible light. Its PAR38 shape concentrates heat in a controlled beam pattern, which supports targeted warming tasks. The standard E27 screw base ensures compatibility with widely used holders and fixtures. The lamp is engineered to operate reliably on 230 V supply and to maintain thermal performance during typical use.

Suitable for

• Supplementary heating in bathrooms, kitchens and small rooms
• Spot warming for workstations, production lines or service counters
• Pet enclosures and animal care areas requiring localized heat
• Food warming and holding in commercial kitchens and buffets
• Replacement in existing PAR38/E27 heat fixtures

Key specifications

• Form factor: PAR38 reflector shape for directional infrared emission
• Nominal power: 175 watts of infrared heating output
• Base type: standard E27 screw connection for common fixtures
• Rated supply: designed for 230 V mains operation
• Beam control: reflector design for concentrated heat distribution

How to use

Install the lamp into a compatible PAR38-rated fixture with an E27 socket ensuring the power is switched off before handling. Position the fixture so the infrared beam is directed toward the area requiring heat, maintaining safe distances from combustible materials and avoiding direct prolonged exposure to skin or eyes. After installation, restore power and verify stable operation and desired heating coverage. For accurate placement, adjust the fixture angle to achieve targeted warming while monitoring temperature during initial use.

Recommendations

Use the lamp only in fixtures and environments rated for heat lamps and PAR38 dimensions. Allow sufficient ventilation around the fixture and avoid using the lamp near flammable materials. Replace the lamp if glass damage or significant performance decline becomes apparent. For animal or food applications, follow relevant safety and hygiene guidelines to prevent overheating and ensure proper distance between the lamp and the subject.
