PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) Immersion Heaters 230VAC
1000 watt SmartOne® Electric Immersion Heaters utilize Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) semiconductors as the heating element. They are “self-limiting” - the maximum temperature is internally limited regardless of the operating conditions thereby providing built-in safety. As the PTC elements heat up, their resistance to electrical current increases. In the aquaculture industry, a common threat to heater life is buildup in waters with dense solids resulting in overheat conditions. Since these conditions will not cause the SmartOne® to overheat, it will last significantly longer than a traditional heater (periodic cleaning is still recommended). The maximum output temperature is below the ignition point of most plastic tanks so overheat damage is prevented if the element is operated in air or becomes covered with buildup. The EASYPLUG™ PTC heaters offer simple, easy plug-in installation; simply mount the heater, plug it into the control, and plug the control into a wall receptacle. Titanium model, S1H11T, for salt water use. One-year warranty. Controls sold separately.
