OverviewThe Hopper Temperature Controller (HTC) Heat Boosters deliver economical, localized drying heat to individual drying hoppers for precise material pre-conditioning. Designed for industrial drying applications, the HTC series offers a temperature range up to 191°C (375°F) and integrates multiple safety features to ensure reliable operation.
Key features- Individual hopper heating: Independent heating units for each hopper with display of setpoint and actual temperatures.
- Control interface: Icon-driven touch screen providing material-ready notifications, Temperature Setback control at the hopper, Drying Monitor notifications and trending.
- Temperature range: Up to 191°C (375°F) to support a wide range of thermoplastic drying profiles.
- Safety: Full complement of safety devices and an insulated heater box to maintain safe surface temperatures.
- Applications: Economical drying heat for individual drying hoppers in material handling and pre-conditioning processes.
Frequently Asked Questions- Individual heating units: Allows heating of hoppers individually to meet specific resin or material drying requirements; displays both setpoint and actual temperatures for process control.
- Safe surface temperature: Insulated heater box and safety devices minimize surface temperature exposure and protect nearby equipment and operators.
