®

MBH Series mica­insulated band heaters are available
in 1- or 2-piece construction and a
variety of diameters and widths.
One-piece band heaters are
manufactured with inside diameters
from 25 to 89 mm (1 to 31⁄2"). Two-
piece band heaters are available
in diameters from 102 to 292 mm
(4 to 111⁄2"). Electrical connections
are made through post terminals
or insulated and stainless steel
overbraided leads.

Each half of the 2-piece band heaters
is rated 120 V and is wired in parallel
for 120 V operation or in series for
240 V operation.

Available options include different
dimensions and terminals, special
wattage or voltage ratings, flexible
conduit, and holes or cutouts.
Two or more sections can be
manufactured to fit larger diameters.
Contact Engineering for more
information.

When heating objects to higher
temperatures, lower-watt-density
heaters should be used to prevent
overheating and shortened heater
life. Watt density is the total wattage
of the heater divided by the heated
surface area of the heater. Use the
table to the right to select the
maximum recommended watt
density for the application. Lower
watt densities can be achieved by
operating 240 V heaters on 120 V.

When operating 240 V heaters on
120 V, the wattage and watt density
are derated by a factor of 4.

For example, the MBH-1715300A/240
is a 44 mm (1.75") ID one-piece
band heater, rated for 300 W and
36 W per square inch at 240 V.
When operating this same heater on
120 V, the wattage and watt density
are reduced to 75 W and 9 W per
square inch.
