SmartOne heaters' elements are PTC positive temperature coefficient semiconductors – making the heaters self-limiting.
That is, they reach a set maximum sheath temperature (which is below the ignition point of most combustible materials),
meaning they are especially safe for process applications.
LONG ELEMENT LIFE:
• PTC heater element lasts longer than conventional heaters.
• Will not burn out if run in air.
• Will not burn out due to scale or sludge buildup.
SAFE DESIGN:
Heater self limits its maximum operating temperature to 250 Celsius degree. This is lower than the ignition point of most plastics.
Will not melt tanks when a 1/2' (12mm) minimum distance is maintained.
Overtemperature protection devices are not required.
Safety is built-in, not added on.
Metal-grounded construction (earth ground).
Non-floating construction.
SIZES: 1,000 watts (1kW) to 6,000 watts (6kW).
VOLTAGES::
Three voltage ranges available: 110-120 volt, 200-240 volt, and 380-480 volt.
Heater is available in single or three phase power.
CORROSION RESISTANT HEADS: Vaporresistant, flame retardant polypropylene terminal enclosures each with 3-foot (.9m) flexible PVC liquid tight conduits.
OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE:
Watt densities of 4 watts/cm2 ensure long service life.
Auto-stabilizing solid state element prevents hot spots and ensures uniform heating.
Heater derates itself in highly viscous and high temperature solutions. Consult factory for sizing assistance.
CHEMICALLY RESISTANT:
For use in most aqueous alkaline, electroplating and rinse solutions. Check our Solution Guide or with your chemical supplier for recommended sheath material. Available in:
304 stainless steel
316 stainless steel
Titanium
Consult factory for the following:
Longer wire and conduit lengths.
Extended cold zones.
Temperature and level controls sized to match the heater.
We recommend temperature controls and level controls for use with this immersion heater.
