Elpor Stainless Steel Heaters Tech Spec

OverviewOptionsApplicationsTech Specs

Voltage
Elpor® SS stainless steel heaters can be custom designed to operate 2 to 480 volts.  Series and parallel resistive heater circuits, including dual-voltage configurations are available.

Wattage
Custom watt density designs are available, providing added efficiency and control.  Our engineers can design different sections of the Elpor® SS stainless steel heaters with different watt densities for surface temperature uniformity or to meet wattage targets in a given area of the heater.  Power densities greater than 200 W/in2 or 31 W/cm2 are available.

Sensors
Heatron’s Elpor® SS stainless steel heaters can be combined with surface-mount thermistors or RTD’s for direct on-board feedback control. These SMT sensors on the heater can be provided with independent circuitry within the heater used to return the signal to the lead exit area, maintaining a desirable low profile.

Connecting Leads
Heatron’s Elpor® SS stainless steel heater can be supplied with power leads soldered directly to the board, or with mechanically secured insulated stud nut and ring terminals.  Wire gages typically used are in the 18 to 26 AWG range, but a broad range of connection hardware schemes are available depending on basic heater size and design.

Agency Approvals
Heatron’s Elpor® SS stainless steel heaters have UL component recognition under file E91597.  Power densities up to 200 W/in2 with a maximum surface temperature of 300° C and supply voltages up to 240 VAC are covered.
