Your partner for thermal system solutions
Watlow develops and produces the components of thermal systems. Highest quality and insurance of operation distinguish the components. Started with flexible heaters over cable heating elements up to cast in heaters we are the correct choice for your application.

To heat a vacuum means the heating of a body in a vacuum. Vacuum heating is always reached by radiation heating. From their design some heating elements are better suitable than others. The following description of applications gives you an overview of how bodies in a vacuum can be heated.

• Flexible heating elements
  Glued on the outside or inner surface of a vacuum pipe or a container and/or up-vulcanizes. Particularly suitably for objects with more curved and/or irregularly formed surface. Note: Kapton® is recommendable as only material for flexible heating elements for use in a vacuum
   
  
• Cable heating elements
  Spiral or wound; built into a vacuum chamber for heating by radiant heat.
   
  
• Cast-in heating elements
  built into a vacuum-chamber, so that the inner surface serves as source of radiant heat. Individual heating zones and/or distribution of the wattage on the inner surface possible.
   
• Multicell heating elements
  built into a vacuum-chamber for heating by radiant heat. Been suitable for particularly high temperatures and reliable heating.
