hotform Silicone Heating Elements

Par­a­bol­ic an­ten­na, flat an­ten­na, pan­el or rod an­ten­na: Our hot­form sil­i­cone heat­ing el­e­ments can be used for the flat, round, con­cave and con­vex sur­faces of all types of ra­dio, TV, ra­dio or satel­lite an­ten­nas. They can be used both in­doors and out­doors as a stand-alone so­lu­tion, as a built-in com­po­nent or as an in­ter­me­di­ate lay­er in sand­wich con­struc­tions. De­pend­ing on the ob­jec­tive, they are used for de­frost­ing (an­ti-ic­ing) or for heat­ing dish­es, re­flec­tors, ra­di­a­tors or housings.

An­oth­er ma­jor area of ap­pli­ca­tion for hot­form sil­i­cone heat­ing el­e­ments in the field of telecom­mu­ni­ca­tions and in­for­ma­tion tech­nol­o­gy is the heat­ing of con­trol cab­i­nets as well as com­po­nents of satel­lite tech­nol­o­gy, re­mote da­ta trans­mis­sion and in­dus­tri­al mea­sure­ment and con­trol technology.

hot­form sil­i­cone heat­ing el­e­ments are UV-re­sis­tant, weath­er­proof, wa­ter­proof to IP 67 and com­ply with EN 45545 (smoke, fire)

In rail­road en­gi­neer­ing, hot­form sil­i­cone heat­ing el­e­ments are used, among oth­er things, to heat or de­frost doors, steps, en­trances, win­dows, mir­rors, seats, floors, cladding as well as fresh and waste wa­ter tanks, pipelines and rail­car cou­plings. They are al­so used to heat trac­tion cur­rent col­lec­tors and the fronts of rail­cars. In track and sig­nal tech­nol­o­gy, they pro­tect me­chan­i­cal ac­tu­a­tors and elec­tri­cal-elec­tron­ic switch­ing con­tacts in rail­road tracks, switch­es, sig­nals and dis­play pan­els from icing.

hot­form sil­i­cone heat­ing el­e­ments can be in­stalled very eas­i­ly and flex­i­bly. They are UV-re­sis­tant, ex­treme­ly weath­er­proof and wa­ter­proof to IP 67. They al­so com­ply with EN 45545 (fire, smoke) as well as 50264 and EN 50306 (rail vehicles).

In the food in­dus­try, hot­form sil­i­cone heat­ing el­e­ments are used both with­in pro­duc­tion and pro­cess­ing (ma­chines, process­es) and in prepa­ra­tion (e.g. large kitchens, pri­vate con­sumers) and dis­tri­b­u­tion (e.g. cater­ing, lo­gis­tics). De­pend­ing on the ob­jec­tive, they are used to heat, warm, cook, liq­ue­fy, melt, de­frost or keep warm liq­uid, pasty or sol­id foods.

Typ­i­cal ap­pli­ca­tions for hot­form sil­i­cone heat­ing el­e­ments in the food sec­tor in­clude waf­fle irons, hot­plates, pipe trace heat­ing sys­tems in choco­late pro­duc­tion and hot hold­ing sys­tems in can­teen technology.

hot­form sil­i­cone heat­ing el­e­ments are FDA-com­pli­ant and can be very eas­i­ly fixed to the sur­faces of sys­tems, equip­ment, con­tain­ers and pipelines. They are used in food tech­nol­o­gy in many ther­mo­dy­nam­ic and flu­idic pro­ce­dures and processes.
