Flexible Silicone Drum Heaters

Fullchance Heating design and manufacture a range of flexible heaters suitable for use on 200-litre metal or plastic drums and 60 and 20 litre drums and pails.

Flexible silicone drum heaters are specifically designed to reduce the viscosity of products or melt solids so they can be poured. These can be used with other Fullchance Heating products such as a drum insulated jacket for greater heating efficiency and/or a drum base heater in situations where the drum and product will accept additional heat.

Features

• Tough, long-lasting, and resistant to oil and chemicals.
• Rapid heat-up due to direct contact with the drum, and are fitted with a pre-set thermostat set at 32°C, 42°C or 52°C.
• Additional over-temperature thermostat for safety.
• Manufactured and tested in accordance with
• AS/NZS 3100.

Construction

• ‍Made from high-quality fibreglass reinforced silicone sheeting.
• Fitted with a 2m power cord and 3-pin plug.  
• Standard with eyelets and lacing rope. Over-spring toggles option available for the 200L metal drum model.
• Can be used with a Fullchance digital PID controller for precise temperature control.

Applications

• Viscous fluid
• Grease
• Fats
• Paints
• Chemicals
• Fruit concentrates
• Inks
• Adhesives

Silicone Etch Foil and Flexible Rubber Heaters

Fullchance's silicone rubber etched foil heaters offer greater heat coverage and up to twice the wattage density of wire wound. When watt density matters, Fullchance’s state-of-the-art flexible circuitry allows designers to distribute wattage and create complex heat distribution patterns with silicone rubber.

• Etched foil provides options for variable watt density and complex heat patterns.
• Etching circuits is an efficient means for manufacturing in high quantities.
• Foil thickness ranges from .0005″ to .004″ depending on your required resistance.
• Different foil material types can be used depending on the heater resistance needed.
• Etched designs are excellent for applications requiring watt densities greater than 5 watts/in2.
• An excellent choice for heaters that require multi-zoned wattages or heaters that have many holes or cutouts.
• Offers excellent circuit repeatability.
• Elimination of edge loss due to compensation using distributed wattage.

ETCH FOIL FLEXIBLE ADVANTAGES

Computer designed, chemically etched foil tracks are laminated between thin sheets of silicone to give precise, even heating. Suitable for both low and high volume production, Etch Foil Silicone Heaters have rapid heat up properties with precise temperature control.

Suited to applications where high power densities are required, etch foil silicone heaters offer a more precise form of heating than their wire wound counterparts owing to wider heated tracks.
