Radiant Heaters
Where heat transfer through physical contact is not possible or desirable, an Isopad radiant heater is the ideal solution. It combines the uniform heat density and robust properties of a mineral insulated heating cable with a highly polished, support plate. Directed heat with a withstand temperature up to 1000°C is possible and panels can be manufactured up to 5 square meters.
Metal cased heating panel (1000 °C)
At the core of an Isopad metal cased heating panel lies an MI heating cable which results in an inherently robust product. The MI element is precisely formed to achieve a uniform heat density and fixed to a metallic plate for use as a radiant or contact heater.
Isopad metal cased heating panels are ideally suited for use in high vacuum applications where it is essential to address the potential failure mechanisms at the design stage.
for example
? Minimum number of vacuum feed-throughs
? THERMOCOAX has access to the longest lengths of mineral insulated cable in the industry and therefore a minimum number of feed-throughs and cold-lead joints is possible
? High temperature, reliable cold-lead joints
? Isopad cold-lead joints are laser welded which, not only increases the operation temperature compared to brazed joints, but also greatly improves the reliability of the joint
? Avoid introducing possible sources of volatile contamination
? The all-metal construction is very suitable for use in high vacuum equipment as it prevents contamination from volatiles. Vacuum feed-throughs and sensors are supplied as part of the assembly to remove the risk of contamination prior to installation.
