Abstract
Known infrared irradiation devices for drying a material for irradiation that is moved through a process chamber have a radiator unit with at least one infrared radiator for emitting infrared radiation and have a counter-reflector with a reflector wall, wherein the reflector wall has a plurality of inlet openings for admitting cooling gas into the reflector space. Proceeding from this, in order to provide an irradiation device for the drying method, which irradiation device is, in particular for drying solvent-containing and in particular water-based printing ink, distinguished by high-speed drying with a low level of bubble formation and a low level of condensation in the reflector space at the same time, it is proposed that the reflector wall has at least one outlet opening for conducting waste air out of the reflector space.
