  • Re: Adhesive Chioce

    Both adhesives are designed to stick to aluminum.&nbsp;&nbsp; Anodized is an even better situation because it provides a cleaner and less oily surface.&nbsp;&nbsp; Many times using a light sand paper to ''rough up'' the area where the PSA will be bonded is a good idea to promote ideal adhesion.

  • Re: electric water heaters

    I am not an expert in the use of electric water heaters but I did a google search and found the following URL that might help&nbsp;(www.ci.arlington.Tx.us/build/faq.html&nbsp;&nbsp;)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The 18'' elevation is intended to keep ignition sources above these vapors that are heavier then air and settle at the garage floor. &nbsp; &nbsp;

  • Mounting

    I have a laser application.&nbsp; The heater is be used to keep electronics warm.&nbsp; Right now I am thinking of using an etched polyimide heater. &nbsp;The heater could be exposed to temperatures between minus 40 to minus 55C.&nbsp;&nbsp;Outgassing is a concern.&nbsp;&nbsp;Due to storage conditions, being able to withstand moderate levels of ...

  • Re: Kapton

    Aircraft wiring and the insultation used on the wiring has been a debate since&nbsp; a TWA&nbsp;plane caught fire back in the late 1970's.&nbsp;&nbsp;It was not&nbsp;until a couple years ago&nbsp;that the FAA decided to investigate aircraft wiring.&nbsp; On an aircraft, there are&nbsp;bundles of wires in close proximity. Due to age and vibration, ...

  • Re: Surface mount RTD's

    The actual surface mount RTD component (SMT) &nbsp;itself can withstand the 237°C temperarture. The de-rating area is the point of transition between the pad on the SMT and the pad on the carrier (e.g. Polyimide flex circuit, ribbon cable, PCB etc).&nbsp; If you are talking about just a short&nbsp;dwell time in order to solder on the compoent then ...

  • Re: Heater Design Tips for Fractional Distillation Application

    I do not have much experience with this exact heating application.&nbsp; I do know that submersing a silicone rubber heater is generally not recommended.&nbsp; It can be done but a lot of customization of the heater is required.&nbsp;&nbsp;I recommend that you&nbsp;make direct contact with a silicone rubber heater manufacturer and disclose more ...
