Thin, Responsive
Heater Sets
Standards For
Performance and
Durability
The Watlow MI Strip is a thin, responsive heater that sets
unmatched standards for performance and durability. It makes
use of the most advanced heater construction techniques
including embedding a nickel chromium element wire in
Watlow's exclusive mineral insulation.Only 0.042 inches
(1.067 mm) thick, this layer of insulation brings the element
wire closer to the heater sheath.The result is heat flows easily
from the element wire to the sheath, thus allowing the wire to
run cooler than conventional heaters.
Features and Benefits
Higher watt densities
• Contribute to faster heat-up
Exclusive mineral insulation
• Combines high dielectric strength and superior thermal
conductivity which transfers heat rapidly to the sheath
304 stainless steel sheath
• Maintains the high compaction of mineral insulation and
produces a rigid heater
