Thermic Edge offer PG-PBN heaters for applications where fast temperature ramping is required in a reactive environment. A pyrolytic graphite (PG) element track is formed on a pyrolytic boron nitride (PBN) substrate. The track is then covered in PBN to insulate and protect it.
Standard heater sizes are shown in the table below. All heaters are supplied with power leads and thermocouples and can be supplied with power supplies and controllers. These heaters can be supplied flange mounted or fitted to our heater stages.
Thermic Edge also offers a range of accessories for PG/PBN heaters to allow for electrical connections.
