Product catalog summary
Company History and Development:
Founded in 1961 by Leo Möskes, the company initially focused on manufacturing wastewater treatment systems. Over time, it expanded to include control cabinet heating systems and new production facilities. In 2002, it was acquired by Achter Elektronik AG, enhancing its customer offerings through synergies.
Product Offerings:
The company specializes in technologies for heating, controlling, ventilating, and cooling control cabinets. Their product range includes heaters with integrated thermostats, PTC heaters, fan heaters, cooling units, ventilators, and control devices.
Technical Specifications and Recommendations:
Heating and cooling are crucial to prevent condensation and overheating in control cabinets. The document provides guidelines for selecting and installing these units based on installation location and enclosure size, with tables for heating capacity and dew point temperatures.
Installation and Control Technology:
Heaters should be installed in the lower third of control cabinets, while cooling units should be placed in the upper area. Proper air circulation is essential, and multiple heater units are recommended for large cabinets. Integrated thermostats are important for efficient temperature control.
Environmental and Quality Standards:
The company aims to achieve ISO 14001 Environmental Certification by 2010. They reserve the right to make technical modifications and ensure customer-specific developments meet specifications.
Conclusion:
Lm-therm GmbH provides comprehensive solutions for control cabinet climatization, enhancing industrial application reliability and efficiency through innovative heating and cooling technologies.
Overview: The document details industrial heating systems, focusing on heaters with integrated thermostats, PTC heaters, and fan/blower heaters, including specifications, installation procedures, and customization options.
Specifications:
  • PTC Heaters: Self-regulating and suitable for high-density environments, requiring external control for precise temperature management.
  • Heaters with Integrated Thermostats: Available in various configurations, these heaters operate without external controllers and are customizable.
  • Fan/Blower Heaters: Suitable for difficult convection environments, offering high thermal efficiency and excess temperature protection.
Installation and Customization:
  • Heaters can be mounted with snap or screw fastenings, with options for different voltage and power ratings.
  • Customization includes special voltage requirements, longer cables, and specific temperature settings.
Recommendations:
  • For precise temperature control, consider a separate temperature controller.
  • Ensure appropriate fuse protection and interlinking of heater units due to high starting currents.
Technical Data:
  • Tables provide information on voltage, power ratings, mounting positions, and order numbers for heater models.
  • Dimensioned drawings and wiring diagrams are included for installation guidance.

05.06.1961 Leo Möskes established a rm in sole proprietorship for the manufacture of wastewater treatment systems in Röthenbach near Nuremberg / Germany. In control cabinets that were operated around dew point terperatures, at that time, light bulbs were installed to avoid falling below dew point temperature by means of the light bulb's waste heat. 01.10.2002 The Achter Elektronik AG aquires the partner's interest share of Lm-therm Gmbh. 12.08.1993 Foundation of the rm in sole proprietorship: Franz Achter Elektrohandel & Systemtechnik Achter Elektronik AG and Lm-therm GmbH utilize the synergy...
