    Features & Benefits

    Features Benefits
    Multiple, independently controllable zones
  • Allows process temperature uniformity not possible with any other single-sheathed heater
  • Radiant design of heater
  • Allows for loose insertion in boiling holes and piping holes
  • Permits easy removal and replacement with minimal down time since it will not bind or seize in the hole
  • Oxidized sheath
  • Provides high emissivity and improves the heater’s performance as oxidation increases
  • Individually metal-sheathed coils swaged into a larger, high-temperature alloy outer sheath
  • Provides maximum protection against element burnout through the outer sheath
  • Quick disconnect plug and jack
  • Permits fast replacement of individual elements while the press stays at operating temperature
  • Special bending capabilities
  • Solves unusual machinery needs and keeps leads away from heated zones
  • Flexible leads up to 842°F (450°C)
  • Protects termination from high-temperature environment
