RS PRO Enclosure Heater, 12V dc, 20W Output, 20W Input, 120°C, 70mm x 67mm x 65mm

RS PRO Anti-Condensation Enclosure Heater

Introducing the range of RS PRO Enclosure Heaters, specifically designed for use in switch and control gear enclosures, providing a low wattage heater to prevent condensation inside the enclosure that could damage expensive equipment. Each heater has been designed with a vitreous enamelled resistor mounted in a sheet case and offers a removable, perforated steel sheet cover for ease of access. Small and versatile, the range of RS PRO enclosure heaters are the perfect choice for a variety of enclosure heating applications.

Features and Benefits:

• The range of RS PRO enclosure heaters are designed as high quality, heavy-duty power resistor enclosures (IP20), manufactured from Zinc plated steel with a powder-coated finish for optimum protection


• They contain a vitreous enamelled resistor that is mounted in a sheet steel case and have a removable perforated sheet steel cover for easy access allowing for quick visual inspection


• In addition to this, there is a cable entry grommet at each end and M4 terminal screws are provided on the resistor for easy installation


• They are incredibly versatile heating units that can be used in a range of applications but are especially suited to switch and control gear enclosures


• This range of RS PRO anti-condensation heaters have been designed for use where a low wattage heater is required to prevent condensation and frost, and manage temperature fluctuations that could impact the electrical components and equipment housed inside the enclosure

Technical Features:

• Dielectric withstand voltage is 2kV from terminal to ground


• The temperature coefficient is 50ppm/°C


• Rated at 1000W continuous at 280°C


• Desirable to limit the surface temperature of the resistor


• The rated voltage is 230V

Applications:

Enclosure heaters, also known as anti-condensation heaters, are specifically intended to be used to prevent condensation build-up and offer frost protection in control and equipment enclosures. They are ideal for self-regulating temperature management of electrical components and equipment housed in enclosures that may be exposed to moisture build-up and extreme temperature fluctuations, ensuring the best possible conditions for optimum performance and operation over long-term periods. They are typically used in automation and control gear and industrial industries, specifically for control and switchgear.
