Description for MICA STRIP HEATERS

 MICA STRIP HEATERS

 

MICA STRIP HEATERS

 

 Abtech Heaters offers Mica Strip Heater which is an economical & reliable source of heat for Industrial equipment. The 0.4mm thick mica insulator on both sides of the resistance element provides complete electrical insulation & offer very little resistance to efficient heat flow.

The Nickel- Chrome resistance on wire size is designed to the even heat distribution for maximum heater life. The mica insulator is used to insulate the winding, providing excellent thermal conductivity and strength.

Installation Instruction :

1. Mica Strip Heaters are available with mounting slots at end for surface mounting application or without slots for inserting into the milled slots.
2. The heaters should be clamped firmly along the entire length to a smooth metal surface by using metal clamps.
3. The area for heating must be clean & smooth for efficient heat transfer. No air gaps should b there which may cause hot spot, resulting in failure.
4. Contaminants such as oil, plastics & dirt should not be allowed to collect on heaters as they will find way into the winding's & cause electrical shorts.
