USE


GM.55 flat heaters are the ideal choice for applications requiring efficient, even heat distribution. Commonly used for heating molds, tools, and melt flow channels, these heaters provide rapid heating, exceptional durability, and customizable designs to meet the demands of industrial environments.
GM.55 flat heaters are perfect in dry conditions, they are not suitable for wet environments. For such applications, we recommend our GM.75 heater model, specifically designed to deliver reliable performance in moisture-prone settings.

Application areas:
Heating of molds, tools, and melt flow channels to ensure optimal temperature control and efficient material processing.

CONSTRUCTION OF MICANIT
BAND HEATER GM.50


The GM.55 heaters can be constructed in three ways to suit your needs:
  • GM.551 NORMAL Closed with Sheet Metal - Standard construction for versatile applications.
  • GM.552 MIKA ONLY - Features mica insulation, perfect for installations with limited space.
  • GM.553 NORMAL with Pressure Plate – Pressure plate(Fe) available in thicknesses of 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, or 10 mm for enhanced durability.
All GM.55 heating elements are equipped with heating wire and high-quality MICANITE insulation for superior heat resistance and efficiency. Choose the right configuration for your application to maximize performance and reliability.

SELECTION


Selecting the right flat heater is essential for ensuring optimal performance, energy efficiency, and the long-term reliability of your heating system.

Here are key factors to consider when selecting a flat heater:
  • Temperature Range: Determine the maximum operating temperatures required for your process.
  • Watt Density: Assess the power requirements to achieve the desired heating levels efficiently. Higher watt densities are suitable for faster heating and more demanding applications.
  • Mounting of heater: Mounting heater properly to the desired surface is essential for optimal performance. Ensure there are enough fixing holes and a pressure plate to prevent movement and ensure stability. This ensures efficient heat distribution, energy savings, and longer-lasting performance.
