Silicone Heaters and Kapton-Polyimide heaters - Flexible Heaters (up to 200°C) made of Silicone and Polyimide

Silicone heaters and Kapton heaters are preferred surface heating elements for laboratory equipment and medical technology due to their easy handling and variety of shapes. Like Kapton polyimide heating foils, silicone heaters are resistant to continuous temperatures of up to 200 °C, with self-adhesive foil up to 180 °C. When designing silicone heaters and Kapton foil heaters, the designer has almost unlimited degrees of freedom. This applies to the minimum and maximum dimensions, which are set within wide limits, as well as to contours and recesses, holes and feed-throughs of any kind. The good shape flexibility of silicone heating mats and foils as well as Kapton polyimide heaters also enables the heating of cylindrical, conical or rounded surfaces. The resistance of polyimides to fungi, bacteria, ozone, weather, ageing and most chemicals, acids and solvents is very good, making polyimide (Kapton) heaters an ideal solution for many critical applications. Continuous temperature resistance (with self-adhesive foil):200°C (180°C) Recommended max. watt density:0,8 W/cm² max. dimensions of silicone heating mats:940 x 3000 mm max. dimensions of Kapton/Polyimide film heaters:285 x 550 mm
