Heaters are used to maintain temperature and reduce humidity levels in electrical cabinets, automation cabinets, ATMs, payment terminals, and other electronic devices. Previously, incandescent lamps were used for these purposes, but it is clear that this method does not guarantee compliance with modern strict requirements for electrical and electronic equipment. Today, almost all manufacturers are switching to PTC heaters, which not only provide heating but also ensure safety and durability of operation.

All heaters are equipped with electronic surface overheating protection, which provides an additional guarantee of safe operation.

Due to the high demands placed on cabinet heaters, Plastim has paid the utmost attention to the selection of component suppliers. For example, the supplier of PTC resistors is the same as for Schneider Electric, and the terminal block for the electrical connection of all components is manufactured by the Italian company KORNER according to a special order. The plastic from which this block is made has a very important property: when heated, it not only retains its shape and does not deform, but also does not release any odor and, therefore, does not emit harmful carcinogenic substances into the atmosphere. Agree that this approach to supplier selection favorably distinguishes high-quality Plastim heaters from cheap Chinese counterparts.

To ensure automatic temperature maintenance with this heater, you will need a simple bimetallic thermostat or a more complex temperature controller.
