About Band Heaters

Band heaters are ring-shaped heating devices that clamp around a cylindrical element. Heat transfer from band heaters occurs via the conductive method. Most band heaters clamp around the outer diameter of a cylindrical element and heat the element from the outside. Some products clamp around the inner diameter of a pipe. Typically, band heaters are quipped with ceramic or mineral insulation to reduce heat loss to the environment.

Selecting band heaters requires an analysis of performance specifications and features. Parameters to consider include: maximum operating or sheath temperature, AC voltage required, and watts. Maximum operating temperature is the maximum temperature that the sheath covering the heater may reach. Note that maximum sheath temperature is not the maximum temperature that a heated substance may reach. AC voltage required is the minimum alternating current (AC) voltage required for band heater operation. Important dimensions to consider for band heaters include the inside diameter, width, and thickness of the band. As a rule, the inside diameter of a band heater should be the same size as the outside diameter of the cylinder to be heated.
