Design Criteria
Please review the criteria below to preliminarily determine if your heater design meets our capabilities and give us a call to discuss your options.
-
- Maximum heater size:
-
- Polyester = 47” x 23”
- Polyimide = 23″ x 17″
- Teflon = 110″ x 48″
-
- Tolerance of cutline and features: +/-.050” under 24” and +/- .100″ over 24”.
- Parts are shipped flat.
- PTFE insulated wires.
- The material to be utilized is opaque (white) FR polyester up to 257°F / 125°C or non-FR polyimide up to 302°F / 150°C.
- The resistance tolerance is +/- 10% from nominal, measured at ambient.
- If selected, pressure sensitive adhesive is 3M 467/468.
- Wire attachment joints will be over potted to provide general insulating protection.
- Maximum heater size:
To help customers obtain prototypes heaters quickly and easily, we do not need CAD files or formal prints to design and fabricate parts. At a minimum, we require an image that shows what is needed from a physical size/shape. This includes:
- A photograph of a sketch on a sheet of paper
- A JPEG or PNG snip of a screen shot
- A PDF of a print
- A photo of another part
Remember that what you provide needs to have dimensions and sufficient information for us to replicate what you are needing.
