Blizzard Series
PTC Convection Heaters of the Blizzard series are powerful air heaters for all kinds of electrical housings. They consist of a PTC heating element pressed into an aluminum profile, equipped with a terminal block in a plastic housing. The convection heater is characterized by its high performance combined with its low weight and compact design. Blizzard features a DIN clip and a terminal block which allow for easy and space-saving integration into the customer application. PTC convection heaters are particularly often used in control cabinets, where they protect electronic components from moisture and frost.
The Blizzard is available in four different power versions from 20W to 65W. The heaters are suitable for a voltage range of 110 - 240V AC or DC (multi-voltage capable).
PTC Convection Heaters come with all advantages of the PTC heating technology. Thanks to the PTC effect, the heating elements dynamically adjust their power without exceeding a maximum temperature. High operational reliability and energy efficiency without any additional switching elements.
