Ceramic Heating Bands

Ceramic band heaters are recommended because efficient heat transfer is not affected by irregular surfaces or loose fit.

Ceramic heating bands.

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. Feel free to let our engineering department custom design and build your ceramic band heaters to your specifications. Click image to enlarge mica band heaters are thin efficient heaters. Excellent dielectric strength at high temperatures with high voltages.

Ceramic insulated band heaters can meet the demand for energy conservation operation efficiency. The various types of band heaters available at wattco include mica insulated band heaters and ceramic band heaters.

At higher watt densities they can be used in wider increments than other heaters. They are capable of generating higher temperatures essential to process today s resins. Advantages of ceramic bands. Electrical energy savings are achieved by using a 1 4 thick ceramic fiber insulating blanket reducing power consumption by 25 to 30.

Ceramic band heaters are in effect high temperature electric furnaces capable of very efficient heat transfer by radiation conduction and convection. These heaters are used for plastic molding extrusion and molding presses pipe heating heat treating and autoclaves food industry and many more. The preferred choice of oem s. Built in insulation minimizes unwanted temperature changes along the barrel.

Tempco s style of ceramic insulating bricks offers several benefits including. If you have existing engineering drawings please send them in and we will quote you immediately. This means you can reduce the number of bands used and simplify wiring. They have mica or ceramic insulation that helps ensure high dielectric strength and effective heat transfer.

At higher watt densities they can be used in wider increments than other heaters. Band heaters are used to heat pipes nozzles barrels and other cylindrical parts. 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.

Also known as band heaters these wrap around containers to warm contents without direct contact.
