Pelonis Technologies, Inc. 0.38 Watt per Centimeter Square (W/cm²) Power Density and 0.808 Ampere (A) Current Ultra-Thin Flexible Heater TSC300d160GR297

The TSC300d160GR297 is an Ultra-Thin Flexible Heater from Pelonis Technologies, Inc., featuring a power density of 0.38 W/cm¬= and a current rating of 0.808 A. This heater is designed for efficient heat transfer due to its low mass and thin construction, which allows for uniform heating across its surface. It operates effectively in a wide temperature range, from -200¬8C to 210¬8C, making it suitable for various applications, including defense electronics, portable medical instruments, and high-density electronic devices. The heater's construction minimizes electromagnetic fields (EMF) and enhances flexibility, reducing the risk of failure when bent. It is lightweight, with a thickness of less than 0.22 mm and a weight of approximately 0.04 g/cm¬=, making it ideal for space-constrained environments. Installation is straightforward, requiring only the removal of the adhesive backing for application, although a pressure plate is recommended for high wattage density applications to ensure proper contact. Engineers should note that this heater cannot be cut or trimmed, as doing so would disrupt the heating element and create an open circuit. For optimal performance, especially at higher power densities, a temperature sensor or thermostat is advised to prevent overheating.
