179-9541 Heating Element, 1 kW, 230 V ac

RS PRO Heating Element, 1 kW_x000D_ This silicone side drum heater from RS PRO reduces the viscosity of materials like soaps, fats, foodstuffs, varnishes and chemicals, allowing them to be pumped or poured with ease. The multi-strand resistance wires provide even, steady heating throughout the drum at temperatures ranging from 0°C to +120°C._x000D_ Thanks to the polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coating, the band is hydrophobic and resistant to moisture and chemicals. This protects the heating element from damage, even when used in harsh conditions. The wires are insulated between layers of high-temperature fibreglass yarn and silicone-impregnated fibreglass to ensure the strands don't break._x000D_ This heater is commonly used with 200 L drums. You can use it to allow for the continuous flow of thick oils, greases and other fluids in a cold environment. It can also aid in freeze protection, viscosity control, melting solids and maintaining materials at elevated temperatures._x000D_ Features and Benefits_x000D_ • Silicone element drum heater_x000D_ • Overall width of 125 mm_x000D_ • Power rating of 1 kW
