Ceramic Heating Bands

They have mica or ceramic insulation that helps ensure high dielectric strength and effective heat transfer.
Ceramic heating bands. Electrical energy savings are achieved by using a 1 4 thick ceramic fiber insulating blanket reducing power consumption by 25 to 30. Click image to enlarge mica band heaters are thin efficient heaters. Contact at nordic sensors industrial inc we specialize in designing and manufacturing ceramic heater bands according to your needs. Also known as band heaters these wrap around containers to warm contents without direct contact.
Ceramic band heaters are in effect high temperature electric furnaces capable of very efficient heat transfer by radiation conduction and convection. Ceramic band heaters are recommended 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. They are capable of generating higher temperatures essential to process today s resins.
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. At higher watt densities they can be used in wider increments than other heaters. Band heaters from wattco are the ideal solution for high watt densities and high operating temperature applications especially for the plastics industry. The various types of band heaters available at wattco include mica insulated band heaters and ceramic band heaters.

These heaters are used for plastic molding extrusion and molding presses pipe heating heat treating and autoclaves food industry and many more. Adjust the set temperature with the dial. Advantages of ceramic bands. If you have existing engineering drawings please send them in and we will quote you immediately.
Feel free to let our engineering department custom design and build your ceramic band heaters to your specifications. Ceramic bands are recommended here because efficient heat transfer is not affected by irregular surfaces or loose fit. Built in insulation minimizes unwanted temperature changes along the barrel. Tempco s style of ceramic insulating bricks offers several benefits including.
Excellent dielectric strength at high temperatures with high voltages.
