Flexible Silicon Heaters

Product catalog summary
Overview: Horn GmbH specializes in developing and producing flexible silicone heaters for temperatures up to 240°C, used in industrial, medical, and aerospace sectors. They offer customer-specific solutions, from individual parts to large series production.
Heating Plates: These are designed for even heat distribution in plastic films, customizable in dimensions, voltage, and output. They can include temperature sensors or regulators and be divided into multiple heating zones. Maximum dimensions are 2000 x 1000 mm, with a maximum temperature of 240°C.
Press Heaters: Used in rubber vulcanization, these heaters provide even temperature distribution without thick aluminum plates, offering faster heat-up and cool-down periods.
Flat Heating Plates: Suitable for housings and devices, they prevent temperature fluctuations that cause condensation and corrosion, are maintenance-free, and require minimal space.
Heaters for Valves, Nozzles, and Pumps: Custom-designed for specific shapes, these heaters are robust, maintenance-free, and can include temperature sensors or regulators. They are available in flexible, self-adhesive models or can be vulcanized.
Installation Notes: Installations must comply with VDE and CE guidelines, with proper protection measures being the user's responsibility. Specific instructions are provided for each product type.
Specifications: Temperature regulation is achieved via Pt100 sensors or thermal elements. Operating voltage ranges from 6 to 400V AC/DC, with electrical output up to 3 W/cm². Maximum temperature for silicone heaters is 240°C.
Product Features: Silicone heaters are customizable, available in flexible, self-adhesive models. Battery heaters improve cold-start properties, tank heaters offer large surface heat transfer, and drum heaters are robust with integrated temperature control.
Technical Data: Dimensions range up to 3000 x 1000 mm. Electrical connections can be made via strands or cables. Temperature control options include integrated electronic devices or external regulation.
Recommendations: Use suitable temperature controllers to prevent overheating, ensure proper insulation, and consider ambient temperature and thermal conductivity during installation.
