Guide to Determine Insulation Resistance in Electric Heaters
Insulation resistance is a key parameter for any electric heater to operate safely. All Watlow® heaters undergo insulation resistance testing before leaving the manufacturing facilities. However, during shipping and storage, the mineral insulation (magnesium oxide or MgO) material used in metal sheath heaters can absorb moisture rendering the heater unusable until the moisture is purged from the heater.

A New Generation of Temperature Transmitters Has Arrived
The SERIES 5950 is a new generation of temperature transmitter that offers even more accurate and reliable temperature measurement, and also introduces a number of connectivity options that allow for more efficient, real-time data gathering process.
White Paper: New Alternatives in Power Conversion for Electric Heaters
Electric heaters traditionally use a basic on/off switch to control power, receiving full voltage when activated, which can lead to potential damage over time. Watlow's advanced power conversion technology addresses this issue by smoothly adjusting power levels as needed. This innovation enhances heating and sensing capabilities across various specialized applications, offering more precise and reliable performance.
