Heatron| Flexible Optically Clear Polyester ClearviewTechnology from Heatron

The Clearview Transparent heater allows continuous high definition operation of device monitors in low temperature environments. These types of HEATFLEX heaters (optically clear heaters) are typically used in applications that require a high degree of light transmission, such as LCD screens, touch screens, hand held scanners and imagers.

The high heating efficency of Clearview and quick thermal response allows minimal power consumption. This is ideal when used in applications such as computers and battery powered hand scanners. The optical clarity of Clearview is the solution for scanning and imaging quality while maintaining image range.

Clearview is the superior choice over ITO (Indium Tin Oxide). Clearview is not subject to the problems associated with ITO such as electrical design constraints, high power demand, cracking, resistance variation and wide resistance tolerances, and lead location constraints.

Clearview provides direct heat to a variety of human interface displays by allowing products with displays and touch screens to be usable in cold, high humidity/low dew point environments and locations where ambient temperature can change quickly.

Consult Heatron and collaborate with our engineers to create an optically clear heater solution for your application.
