Flexible heating element

screen-printedpolyesterPET

Product description
Polyester foil heaters (PET) are very thin, flexible heating elements designed for uniform contact heating of flat or cylindrical surfaces and for applications such as reflectors. They provide high heat-transfer capacity and even temperature distribution across the active surface.

Manufacturing
These highly flexible foil heaters are produced by screen-printing conductive tracks onto polyester film, allowing thin, wide and homogeneous heating patterns. Adhesive backing options are available to suit different mounting environments.

Control and regulation
Surface-mounted sensors, thermocouples, thermostats and thermal fuses are commonly used for temperature control and regulation.
