Power Band Heater


The Power Band Heaters can operate at sheath temperatures of up to 1300° F continuously, depending on the diameter, width and application. The interior of a Power Band heaters are manufactured with ceramic tape, Nichrome wire and High temperature ceramic cement. The Power Band heaters responds quickly to applications that require high temperatures and high watt densities. All moisture is removed from the Power band heaters by our baking process of 850° F for 8 hours. We have included a small profile termination on models PWB1 and PWB2 for those applications with restricted space.

All of the Power Band Heaters are clamped down with an 18 gauge stainless steel strap to reassure there is no air gaps between the barrel and heater which improves band heater performance. Both the outer and inner shell is manufactured with 3042b stainless steel channel sheet metal providing a compressed process while forming the heaters. Power Band Heaters are manufactured in a variety of electrical termination styles and can be manufactured with holes.
 

Trivolt Industries adopts a stringent internal quality control system (QMSM-2009). Every heater is tested for resistance and dielectric. All our heaters are CSA, UL and CE approved.
