The flexible explosionproof heater, type FHD, allows the uniform heating of surfaces in machinery and apparatus engineering, tank construction and the heating of enclosures for controls and analysing equipment for maintaining the function of built-in equipment at low ambient temperatures. The degree of protection of the flexible heaters is IP66.
The flexible heaters consist of a self-adhesive silicone laminate with a built-in heating element. The clearance between the terminal box and the surface to be heated is such that the maximum surface temperature of the terminal box does not exceed 80 °C. Bolts for fixing the terminal box are welded on to the surface to be heated, so that it can be screwed firmly in position. The contact protection of the heated surface is ensured by an 8 mm thick silicone foam that extends over the complete surface of the heater.
