Silicone rubber heaters operating at correct temperatures enable expensive semiconductor processing equipment to operate at peak performance. Watlow replaced a bimetal thermostat with an integrated sensor and in-line SERIES EHG® controller. The SERIES EHG is a low-cost electronic controller with significant performance advantages over bimetal thermostats. A thin polyimide heater eliminates moisture formation on the lens of a surveillance video camera. Applying the heater to the lens allows the camera to perform effectively even in high humidity environments. Silicone rubber heaters are used to...

Silicone rubber heaters are installed in a warming device which resembles a waffle iron to warm frozen blood prior to transfusion. Top and bottom plates are individually monitored by thermistors connected to a two-channel digital control and located at holes through the heaters. A formed wire-wound silicone rubber heater accelerates the cure time required for epoxy sealing of spliced communication cables. The heater’s cylindrical shape allows for epoxy injection parts. A silicone rubber heater is spiral-wrapped around the flex hose in a breathalyzer for intoxication analysis, to prevent the breath...

A dome-shaped silicone rubber heater provides a controlled cure for epoxy which surrounds a complex and sensitive electronic package used in the nose cone of airplanes. A one-sided, “naked” silicone rubber heater is formed around five sides of a quartz holding tank to maintain acid etchant temperature during silicon wafer processing. A wire-wound silicone rubber heater is intertwined between the cells of a nickel cadmium battery. Pre-formed ends provide easy installation by “locking” around the first cell. Silicone rubber heaters with etched foil elements prevent ice crystal formation in an airport’s...

Attaching a heater to a convex plate presented a challenging problem for a commercial photo processing equipment manufacturer. Factory bonding proved to be the cost effective way to improve performance. Proper and adequate tooling enables Watlow to factory bond to the inside diameter of stainless steel tubes. An etched foil silicone rubber heater is bonded to an anodized plate for heating test tubes in laboratory equipment. Before the heater is molded, two sensors are included to complete the assembly. A silicone rubber heater is factory vulcanized to the outside of a tube leading to the grease...

An etched foil silicone rubber heater assembly was developed for a medical equipment manufacturer as a reliable and accurate method for maintaining body temperature of blood samples. Heaters are factory vulcanized to aluminum blocks which sandwich a precision hypo tube. A silicone rubber heater, factory vulcanized in a spiral wrap around the connecting pipes of a fast food fryer, keeps cooking oil in a liquid state. A silicone rubber heater is adhesive bonded to an aluminum casting of a blood analyzer sampler block that holds vials of blood samples. A silicone rubber heater is vulcanized to an...

Wire-wound silicone rubber heaters with remote-mounted air sensing thermostats are used by a manufacturer of meters which monitor the flow of dry materials such as grains and powders. The control box, which contains the equipment’s electronic components must be protected from damaging moisture that forms during freezing weather. The heating systems are UL® and C-UL® component recognized as required by the customer. A wire-wound silicone rubber heater pad with backside insulation was developed to heat-shrink sleeving around telephone cables. A thermostat and thermofuse provide overtemperature...

the system can be re-set by simply cycling power. The SERIES EHG SL10 allows for a significant increase in up-time on critical equipment. Silicone rubber heaters wrapped around grease holding tanks kept them warm to allow cooking grease to flow when needed. These tank heaters are held at the proper temperature by using a Watlow SERIES EHG temperature controller. The SERIES EHG and thermocouple sensor are factory wired into the heater power cord and pre-programmed to the exact application temperature requirements. The SERIES EHG has greater accuracy and longer life than the bimetal thermostats...
