Ceramic heating bands.

Feel free to let our engineering department custom design and build your ceramic band heaters to your specifications. The various types of band heaters available at wattco include mica insulated band heaters and ceramic band heaters. The preferred choice of oem s. Built in insulation minimizes unwanted temperature changes along the barrel.

Click image to enlarge mica band heaters are thin efficient heaters. At higher watt densities they can be used in wider increments than other heaters. Excellent dielectric strength at high temperatures with high voltages. Ceramic band heaters a helically wound resistance coil made from nickel chrome wire is precisely strung through specially designed ceramic insulating bricks forming a flexible heating mat.

An adjustable thermostat automatically turns the heater on when the temperature drops below your set temperature and off when it rises above your set temperature. These heaters are used for plastic molding extrusion and molding presses pipe heating heat treating and autoclaves food industry and many more. They are capable of generating higher temperatures essential to process today s resins. Ceramic band heaters are in effect high temperature electric furnaces capable of very efficient heat transfer by radiation conduction and convection.

Band heaters are used to heat pipes nozzles barrels and other cylindrical parts. They have mica or ceramic insulation that helps ensure high dielectric strength and effective heat transfer. Tempco s style of ceramic insulating bricks offers several benefits including. Adjust the set temperature with the dial.

Band heaters from wattco are the ideal solution for high watt densities and high operating temperature applications especially for the plastics industry. Electrical energy savings are achieved by using a 1 4 thick ceramic fiber insulating blanket reducing power consumption by 25 to 30. Ceramic bands are recommended here because efficient heat transfer is not affected by irregular surfaces or loose fit. These fast heat band heaters electrically warm the external surface of a cylindrical part to provide indirect heating.

Contact at nordic sensors industrial inc we specialize in designing and manufacturing ceramic heater bands according to your needs. At higher watt densities they can be used in wider increments than other heaters. Ceramic band heaters are recommended because efficient heat transfer is not affected by irregular surfaces or loose fit. Advantages of ceramic bands.
