LMK Flexible Heating Jackets                                IBC Dual Circuit LMK Heating Jacket

LMK flexible heating jackets are suitable for a wide variety of plastic, fibre and metal containers - drums, tubs, buckets, kegs, carboys, IBC's etc.

The jackets incorporate a polyurethane coated nylon outer jacket fitted with adjustable retaining straps and quick release polyethylene clips. A high thermal efficiency layer of insulation is held in place between the outer cover and the inner element carrier. The silicon insulated heating element is woven back and forth along the length of the carrier. The braided supply cable is retained by a polycarbonate gland and an srbf tufnol plate.

The jackets can be supplied in sizes and power ratings to suit particular applications, but our standard units cover most requirements. High quality insulation and direct contact with the drum ensures users of much higher efficiency than can be obtained from traditional band heaters. Heat losses to the surrounding air are much less than with exposed silicon band heaters so the outer surface is cooler and electricity use is much reduced.

Either -5 to 40 deg C or 0 to 90 deg C thermostats may be specified, as can operation from 240 volts ac or 110 volts ac power supply.
