Polyimide (Kapton™) Thermofoil Flexible Heaters
Thin, flexible polyimide (Kapton™) insulated heating solutions for heating applications from -200 to 200°C
Main Features of Polyimide (Kapton™) Thermofoil™ Flexible Heaters
• Polyimide (Kapton™) is a thin, semitransparent material with excellent dielectric strength. Polyimide Thermofoil™ heaters are ideal for applications with space and weight limitations, or where the heater will be exposed to vacuum, oil, or chemicals.
• The lightweight heater has less thermal mass to improve thermal response
• The thin profile with nearly infinite custom X-Y geometry design options allows you to apply heat where it’s needed, reducing operating costs
• Etched-foil heating technology provides fast and efficient thermal transfer
• Customized options (i.e. SMT components, flex leads and connectors) offer turnkey solutions to drastically reduce assembly time and increase productivity
• Custom profiling gives uniform thermal performance of the heating output to improve processing yields and productivity
• UL and TUV component recognition available
• Suitable for vacuum environments (NASA-RP-1061)
• NASA approved materials for space applications (S-311-P-079)
• Resistant to most chemicals: acids and solvents
• Radiation resistant to 106 rads if built with polyimideinsulated leadwire (custom option)
• Very small sizes available
• Fluid immersible designs available (not standard)
• Optional built-in temperature sensors
