Ceramic Band Heaters Manufacturers

Ceramic Band Heaters are specifically designed to meet the increasing demand for energy conservation and to improve operation efficiency. These are capable of generating the higher temperatures essential to process today’s high temperature resins. Electrical energy savings are achieved by using a 1/4″ thick ceramic fiber insulating blanket, reducing power consumption by 25 to 30 percent. Because of the low thermal conductivity of the ceramic fiber insulation, the external surface temperature of the ceramic band heater is approximately 400°F while running the inside surface temperature at 1200°F. They transmit heat through both conduction and radiation. The element winding is designed to run at maximum temperature and heat the ceramic blocks to the point at which they radiate energy into the barrel as well as conduct energy by being in contact with the barrel.
