Heater for Medical Device:

Excellent choice for heaters that require multi-zoned wattages or heaters that have many holes or cutouts:

- Offers excellent circuit repeatability.

- Elimination of edge loss due to compensation using distributed wattage.

- Etched foil provides options for variable watt density and complex heat patterns.

- Etching circuits is an efficient means for manufacturing in high quantities.

- Foil thickness ranges from .0005” to .004” depending on your required resistance.

- Different foil material types can be used depending on the heater resistance needed.

- Etched designs are excellent for applications requiring watt densities greater than 5 watts/in2.

Imaging medical devices usually need to work at a specific temperature, for example, X-ray machines, CT machines, nuclear magnetic resonance machines, etc. Silicone rubber heaters can be used to heat and maintain the temperature inside these medical devices, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the devices.
Specifically, the application of silicone rubber heaters in imaging medical devices includes the following aspects:
Keep the temperature of medical devices stable: Silicone rubber heaters can be used to heat and maintain the temperature inside medical devices. For example, in X-ray machines, silicone rubber heaters can be used to heat the cathode inside the X-ray tube, keeping the cathode The temperature is stable, thus ensuring the stability and accuracy of X-rays.
Heating liquids in medical devices: In some imaging medical devices, liquids need to be heated to a specific temperature, for example, in CT machines, injection fluids need to be heated to body temperature to ensure patient comfort and safety during injection . Silicone rubber heaters can be used to heat these liquids to ensure their temperature stability and safety.
Heating Components in Medical Devices: In some imaging medical devices, some components need to be heated to a specific temperature in order for them to function properly. For example, in NMR instruments, silicone rubber heaters can be used to heat gradient coils and RF coils to ensure their temperature stability and performance.
In short, the application of silicone rubber heaters in imaging medical devices can improve the performance and reliability of medical devices, thereby improving the therapeutic effect of medical devices and the safety of patients.
