St.
Mary's, PA – January 4, 2008 – Spectrum Sensors and Controls introduces
a high power, compact heater design that utilizes proven ceramic PTC
technology to act as the heating element. The PTC thermistors used in
this high power heater are self-regulating elements that can operate at
a nearly constant temperature over a wide range of voltage and
environmental conditions.
Spectrum's PTC heaters offer high
power density in a compact, low-cost design that can accommodate a wide
array of PTC thermistor elements. These heaters have a rated power
output to 1500W, require no thermostat and have a virtually unlimited
life with no moving parts. Positioned between rigid aluminum fins are
one or more PTC heating elements. This helps maximize the heating
surface area while protecting the PTC elements.
The PTC
heaters can be used alone or in conjunction with a number of other
devices to heat a large area. A fan is used to dissipate the heated air
from the PTC to the area that is to be heated. Applications for PTC
high power heaters include space heaters, CCTV cameras, mat/cushion
heaters, telecommunications equipment, vehicle/windshield heaters and
many others.
Spectrum's PTC high power heaters are priced at approx. $ 7.50 @ 1,000pcs with a lead-time of stock to 10 weeks.
