HT-TC 24-Inch Heating Tape with K-Type Thermocouple and PID Temperature Controller for Precise Die Heating
The HT-TC heating tape assembly is designed to provide controlled heating for pressing dies or similar tooling requiring uniform temperature application up to 250°C. This 24-inch long heating tape, 0.5 inches wide, operates primarily at 120V AC with a maximum power output of 105W, though a 220V AC version is available upon request. The tape is insulated with fiberglass to ensure electrical safety during operation.
To achieve precise temperature regulation, the system includes a 6-inch K-type thermocouple with a miniature connector, positioned between the heating tape and the die surface. The thermocouple feeds temperature data to a dedicated PID temperature controller that employs SSR power control with a single segment. The controller features an auto-tune function to optimize temperature stability and minimize overshoot, as well as built-in protection to cut off power if the temperature exceeds safe limits.

Typische Anwendungsbereiche
This heating tape system is ideal for DIY heating of pressing dies, especially in laboratory or small-scale production environments where precise temperature control is critical. It is suitable for wrapping around dies with an outer diameter near 50 mm when combined with optional thermal insulation tape to enhance safety and thermal efficiency.
Hinweise zur Konfiguration und zum Betrieb
The heating tape should be wound evenly around the pressing die, with the K-type thermocouple inserted between the tape and the die surface to ensure accurate temperature measurement. The heating tape and thermocouple connect to the PID temperature controller, which manages power delivery to maintain the set temperature. A power plug is included for convenience. For enhanced safety and heat retention, it is recommended to use thermal insulation tape over the heating tape, especially when operating near the maximum temperature.
Users unfamiliar with DIY assembly may consider ordering the heating tape, temperature controller, and pressing die as a set. Proper polarity must be observed when connecting the thermocouple to the controller to ensure correct temperature readings.
