MI Strip Heater
The MI Strip Heater provides high temperatures, extreme watt densities and quick responses in applications where previously, any other type of strip heater could not be considered. Heat is transferred rapidly from the resistance element to the sheath for lower internal temperatures and long life. The thin but rugged design can produce high sheath temperatures at high watt densities. The MI strip heater is versatile with the availability of widths to 6″ and lengths to 42″. In the most difficult application or in normal use, the MI heater will significantly improve strip heater performance. Careful consideration in clamping strip heaters to the surface will improve heat transfer and extend heater length of service.
Features and Benefits
• Maximum watt densities; far in excess of other style strips.
• Highest application temperatures available.
• Longest life available and the resulting reduction of equipment downtime.
• High heat transfer rates and fast heat-up.
• Reduced number and physical size of heaters for many applications.
