Mica Strip Heater

It is a simple way of using surface area to transfer heat effectively. A fairly inexpensive way of heating surfaces or small areas, strip heaters is an excellent solution to meet any budget. If strip heaters are used as a radiant heater, they have can have fins to maximize surface area and heat transfer to the air.

Features :

• Heat up time is fast to provide a quick response to control input.
• The flat inner resistance ribbon generates a broad area of overall heat to put the heat source close to the work.
• Quality assembled winding and spacing of ribbon ensures maximum heat transfer and heater longevity.
• The Stainless-Steel sheath is treated so that the surface allows the increase of heat transfer to retard oxidation.
• The Mica insulation also withstands high voltage temperatures, resist moisture, and remain immune to most chemicals.
• The Aluminized Steel sheath is rust resistant, durably rigid, and generates heat well.

Mounting Suggestion :
Maximize your mica strip heater, by ensuring the following tips:

• The surface to be heated needs to be kept smooth and clean, for best heat transferring. Caution: Gaps can cause hot spotting.
• Terminal post nuts should not be over tightened, while posts should be securely riveted to the elements. Caution: Excessive torque can break the connection.

Construction
Perfect Heat Mica Strip Heaters are supplied to your custom specifications. They feature a high temperature oxidation SS sheath and high-grade mica insulation resistant to moisture and high temperatures. Nickel/Chromium resistance wire evenly would provide for uniform and reliable heat distribution. Mica Strip Heaters are constructed by winding a nickel-chrome resistance wrapped around Centre mica insulation and covered in a stainless-steel, Galvanized, Aluminized, MS sheath. They are available in an extensive variety of sizes and shapes with options for holes, notches and cut-outs. A number of threaded terminals, wire lead options and terminal boxes offer great flexibility for field wiring. These heaters are ideal for plastic processing applications and for anywhere heat is needed on a flat or curved surface.
