WHATEVER YOUR APPLICATION, CHROMALOX HAS A HEAT AND CONTROL SOLUTION

Chromatograph Cartridge heaters provide a reliable heat source that can be precisely and accurately controlled for main- taining column temperature.

Viscometer Tubular and cartridge heaters supply consistent, repeatable temperature management for accurate viscosity measurement.

Water Baths Strip and tubular heating elements deliver temperature uniformity and are versatile for conforming to various sizes and configurations.

Muffle Furnace Tubular heating elements can achieve the maximum temperatures required with reliability and accuracy. Versatile configurations adapt to any furnace design, while their durability ensures long service life.

Steam Sterilizer Tubular and strip heating elements are reliable enough to meet the demands of steam sterilization and versatile enough to deliver heat by conduction.

Water Distiller Strip heaters are used to precisely supply heat to evaporators.

Air Shower Tubular heating elements and strip heating elements heat circulating air.

Block Heaters/Hot Plates Kapton* polyimide heaters shaped to the dimensions of the heating block or plate provide uniform, precisely controlled conductive heat in tight spaces. Incubators Tubular and strip heating elements located in the units’ walls provide uniform heat to the chamber. Their dura- bility helps to ensure reliable, long service life. Hot Plate Stirrers Tubular and disc heating elements supply dependable, uniform heat with reliable performance. Kapton* poly- imide and flexible silicone laminate heaters are the choice when space is tight. Ultrasonic Cleaners Cartridge and tubular heaters with moisture-resistant end seals provide reliable, high-efficiency heat required for precision cleaning of laboratory instruments. Hand/Glove Dryer Cartridge heaters heat recirculating air on demand for drying hands. Refrigerator/Freezer Tubular heating elements and polymer-sheathed, self- regulating heating cable prevent frost and ice buildup on refrigerator and freezer door gaskets. They also can pro- vide drain line freeze protection and defrost applications.

Tube Furnace Kapton* polyimide heaters deliver fast heat transfer, excel- lent temperature uniformity, and short cool-down times for bench-top tube furnaces.Tubular and strip heating elements provide the versatility of natural or forced con- vection for larger batch processing tube furnaces. Temperature Controls Single-channel and high/low limit controllers combine ease of use and accurate operation for critical tempera- ture applications and reliable protection of processes and expensive equipment. Environmental Chambers/Ovens Tubular and strip heating elements located in oven walls provide uniform heat throughout the chamber. Autoclave/Sterilizer Cartridge heaters provide reliable, high-efficiency heat transfer to temperatures of 1,600°F (870°C). Heating Mantles & Tapes Flexible silicone laminate heaters can be made in many different sizes and shapes to conform to a variety of flasks and vessels for uniform heat distribution. Incubated Shaker Tubular and strip heating elements are reliable heat sources for heating and maintaining the temperature of recirculating air in the incubation chamber.

Control Systems From basic, low-cost temperature and over- temperature controls to more sophisticated process controllers, monitors, digital chart recorders, and integrated control systems, Chromalox has the controls, sensors and ac- cessories you need for use in a variety of labo- ratory and scientific analytical equipment. Our single- and two-loop DIN controllers offer up to

Heat Trace Self-regulating heat trace cable provides safe, reliable heat for freeze protection and temperature maintenance. Adjusts output to independently respond to tem- peratures along its length. Flexible and can be cut to length. For use on 120 and 208 to 277 V. Maintains temperatures to 302°F (150°C).

Tubular Heaters Tubular heaters provide exceptional heat transferby conduction, convection, or radiant to liquids, air, gases, and surfaces. Designed with round, triangular, or flat press configurations. Formed bends can be made to unique requirements. Available with multiple sheath materials as well as a large number of terminations and ac- cessories. UL component recognized and CSA certified. VDE and

Cartridge Heaters Highly compacted heating elements for high-efficiency heat transfer, cartridge heaters have the dielectric and physi- cal strength necessary for long life and outstanding performance. Diameters range from 0.25 to 1.25 in. (3.175 to 31.75 mm), watt densities from 25 to 262 W/in. 2 (4 to 40 W/cm 2 ), and sheath temperatures to 1,600°F (870°C). Op- tional end seals resist

Strip, Ring, and Disc Heaters Rugged, easy-to-install heaters transfer heat by conduction or convection to liquids, air, gases, and surfaces. Widths range from 0.5 to 2.5 in. (12.75 to 63.5 mm), lengths to 72 in. (1.8 m). Ring heaters nest to concentrate heat in small areas. Solid disc units in diameters from 2.25 to 3.25 in. (57 to 83 mm). Units bolt or clamp to many surfaces.

Flexible Laminate Silicone Heaters

Kapton* Polyimide Heaters Constructed of an organic polymer with very high dielectric capabilities. Ideal for extreme temperature environments. Supe- rior resistance to most solvents, oils, even radiation. Fast warm-up times and quick response. Heating elements are etched foil with solder terminal, connector, or lead terminations. Available in many

Used in applications requiring low to me- dium temperatures, up to 390°F (200°C). Rugged construction of chemical- and moisture-resistant lightweight material. Durable wire elements wound precisely within the structure for optimal perfor- mance. A variety of electrical, shape, and contour fittings meet a broad range of specifications.

9 outputs and up to 9 digital and 3 analog inputs. Control modes include manual, On/Off, and P.I.D. with soft start, ramp and soak profiling, valve motor drive, and heater break logic. Configuration software facilitates controller cloning, process simulation, and trending.
