A practical
method for applying heat to cylindrical forms
Mica Insulated
Band Heaters were manufactured in India by navbharat electrical
industries in 1950's at a time when automatic machine moulding
of plastic was introduced in India. They have since proven themselves
as a dependable method of heat transfer for diverse industrial

Construction:
Electric Resistance Type Heaters for dependable service must be
properly designed, and employ quality componentsand workmanship.
navbharat electrical industries's Mica Insulated Band Heaters
are designed to meet customer's requirements by experienced and
consist basically of properly selected nickel-chrome resistance
ribbon type wire, evenly distributed over the heating area, insulated
by properly selected high grade Mica and encased in a metal sheath.
These components
result in a relatively thin unit, approximately 2 mm thick, and
form a heater which responds quickly to control and will operate
at maximum efficiency.
|
Installation:
- Mount Band on
cylinder and secure with lock-up screws.
- With the aid
of mallet, make certain that the entire heater area is adjusted
uniformally to cylinder surface.
- Tighten lock-up
screws again to take up any looseness in fitness.
- After the first
or second heatrun, repeat step 2 and 3 to take up looseness
that may have developed.
Note: If areas of visible heat show up, they result from
poor contact of heater of cylinder . Repeat step 2 and 3.
Operation:
Mica Insulated Heaters accomplish, as nearly as possible, direct
transfer of heat by conduction from the electric element to the
machine part being heated. When firmly and smoothly mounted to
ensure uniform pressure over the heating area, they provide effective
and quick heat transfer and give dependable service.
Practical Watt
Density (Watts/Inch² of heating area, based on multiplying
the inside diameter dimension of the Band * 3.14 * the width of
the Band) varies with the conditions under which heater is intended
to operate.
navbharat electrical
industries considers 4 W/cm² in a single band as a normal
maximum for the overall sizes or limited to whatever wattage is
required to develop temperatures of the material being heated
in a machine part to the 550°F classification. Speaking generally,
service life is directly proportinal to Watt Density -- the lower
the Watt Density, the longer the service life when properly installed.
For higher Watt densities or for developing higher temperatures
see our Ceramic Insulated Band Heaters.

Standard Design
Specification
Mica Insulated
Band Heaters can be furnished for diameters and widths from 12
mm up in any fractional increments. Standard construction furnished,
unless otherwise specified, is a one-piece (single split) band
heater with rust-resistant steel sheath flanged lock-up, with
choice of Screw Terminals, Aplliance Pins, Flexible Leads 30 cm
long, Watt rating as required and for any line voltage under 440,
single phase.
Optional Design
Variations
Body Design :
* Two-halves Seperate
* * Two-halves Hinged
(Note : In these
two designs each half is stamped with the Watt rating for which
it's made; the total rating being the sum of the two halves)
Holes or cut-outs
for control instruments and/or clearance. Circuits dual voltage,
two circuits equally distributed; in separate areas or on separate
planes. Three phase 440 or higher volts.
Line connections
:
- Screw Terminals
- Appliance Pins
- Flexible Leads
Sheath - Stainless Steel MS Bross
navbharat electrical
industries' production is geared to provide the design, size,
material and operating specification required for customers' application.
Once your specification is established, it becomes a permanent
part of our records and may be duplicated at will. The Mica Insulated
Heaters can also be supplied in various design configuration.

How to order
Mica Insulated Band Heaters?
Please specify the following:
- Inside diameter
of Heater Band (best determined by measuring the outside diameter
of the part around which the heater is to fit)
- Width (frequently
referred to as length)
- Whether One-piece
Band, Two-halves Separate or Two-halves Hinged
- Type of line
connection ie Screw Terminals, Appliance Pins, Flexible Leads,
(if the latter, how long and if in armor) or Twist Lock
- Location of
the above, unless otherwise specified, will be in the center-near
and and on one side of the lock-up flange
- Opening beween
lock-up flanges. A larger opening might be required if temperature
control instruments etc are to be inserted at this point
- If any clearance
holes or cut-outs are required in the body of the heater, the
size and location (preferably by sketch)
- Watts (if Two-halves
Separate or Two-halves Hinged are ordered, please
note that navbharat electrical industries stamps each half with
Watt Rating for which it's made. The total rating being the
sum of two halves)
- Volts
