DBK INDUSTRIAL thermal management Design features: • Energy optimizing • Automatical off-switch - no risk of overheating • No regulating electronics needed • Thin and flexible • No inrush current DBK 231012. This information is subject to change without notice. Data is given for illustration purposes only and does not release the customer from independent application tests. Product description The PTCflex foil uses a unique heating technology with strong PTC characteristic.That means that the heating power varies depending on the ambient temperature. The warmer the object gets the less he-ating power is produced by the heater. This selfregulation leads to a natural overheat control. In addition to the selfregulation, every point on the foil's surface is independantly temperature limiting, which optimizes the power consumption. DBK's knowledge of thermal management gives us the experience to guide and support you with your technical challenges - we can manage the complete project from concept to full production release. Standard Heater: • AC/DC voltage • Nominal voltages • Power output at -20°C • Temperature range • Max.
