Flexible Heaters with Sensors


Enlarge Image
  • Temperature sensors directly mounted onto the Flexible Heater for precision thermal control
  • A wide selection of Thermocouples, Thermistors, and RTDs available for application specific customization
  • Heaters can be designed with Single, Dual, or Multiple devices for sensing and control of several independent functions
  • Thin and low mass construction saves space and simplifies end product design

OverviewFeaturesOptionsApplications

Vulcan Flexible Heaters with integrated sensors are often a preferred construction option for engineers due to unique configurations that can be incorporated into the design during the flexible heater manufacturing process. The results often include enhanced temperature control performance, reduced space requirements, improved reliability, and a reduction in costs associated with secondary component assembly (including lower labor, fewer materials, and reduced scrap). Additional benefits often include more rapid heat-up, improved thermal cycling, and less temperature control overshoot.
