What are the characteristics of silicone rubber heaters

Overview of silicone rubber heaters

The silicone rubber heater is mainly composed of nickel chromium alloy heating wire and silicone rubber high-temperature insulation layer. The high-temperature insulation layer of silicone rubber is a thin sheet (with a standard thickness of 1.5mm) composed of silicone rubber and glass fiber cloth, and the silicone rubber heater has good flexibility.

2. Composition and advantages of silicone heaters

Silicone rubber heater is a particularly soft heating belt composed of nickel chromium alloy wire and insulation material. The silicone rubber heater has high power density, fast heating, high thermal efficiency, and long service life. In addition to being used for heat tracing insulation in general constant power bands, it can also be used in places that require heating in some cases. Silicone rubber heaters can be directly wound around the surface of the area to be heated, making installation much simpler and safer. Secondly, silicone rubber heaters have good waterproof performance and can be used for heating, tracing, and insulation of tanks and tanks in humid and non explosive industrial environments. Silicone heaters also have the functions of thawing and melting ice and snow, as well as high temperature and cold resistance and aging resistance, making them particularly suitable for cold regions.

3. Characteristics of silicone rubber heater:

The insulation layer of the silicone rubber heater is a thin sheet (standard thickness of 1.5mm) composed of silicone rubber and fiberglass cloth. The silicone heating plate has good flexibility and can be in close contact with the heated object; The heating element is processed from nickel alloy foil, with a heating power of up to 1.2W/CM2 and uniform heating. In this way, heat can be transferred to any desired location.

4. Scope of application of silicone heater

Silicone rubber heater has good flexibility, can be directly wound on the heated device, good contact, and uniform heating. During installation, the silicone rubber flat side of the electric heating strip should be tightly attached to the surface of the medium pipeline and tank, and fixed with aluminum tape. To reduce heat loss, a composite insulation layer should be added outside the electric heating strip. It can be bent or wrapped according to requirements, with small space volume occupation, simple and fast installation, and also has the function of preventing mechanical damage. The main insulation of the silicone rubber heater is silicone rubber, so it also has heat resistance and excellent insulation.
