ULTRAMICTM 600 Advanced Ceramic Heaters
ULTRAMIC 600 Advanced Ceramic HeaterWhen you need a lot of power in a small package, the ULTRAMICTM 600 puts the performance of advanced ceramics to work for you. Constructed of aluminum nitride (AlN), the ULTRAMIC 600 can operate up to 600°C (1112°F) and deliver ultra-fast ramping of up to 150°C/s (270°F/s)for rapid thermal cycling applications.

The robust mechanical structure of the high density AlN enable these heaters to exhibit exceptional mechanical stability throughout the temperature range. This makes the product especially suitable in applications where consistent part-to-part thermal contact during heating cycles is critical. Additionally, these heaters are applicable when requiring a clean, non-contaminating heat source as they are particle free, impervious to moisture and resistant to acidic attack.

Applications
  • Semiconductor wire and die bonding
  • Analytical instrumentation
  • Medical devices
  • Packaging
  • Aerospace
Features Benefits
  • Robust AlN ceramic
  • Creates a homogeneous assembly for atmospheric and vacuum applications
  • Provides durable heater construction and thermal transfer necessary for high temperature and long heater life
  • Permits the design of a high watt density, fast responding, heater in a very small package
  • Geometrically stable due to low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE)
  • Process temperatures up to 600°C (1112°F) depending on application parameters
  • Rapid prototyping
  • Finite element analysis (FEA) provides rapid 'virtual' prototyping of heater performance prior to the manufacturing process
  • Due to Watlow's innovative design and manufacturing practices, custom prototypes can be delivered in weeks rather than months
  • Superior electrical performance
  • Low leakage current
  • Breakdown voltage >2000V~(dc)
  • High thermal conductivity
  • Makes for a fast temperature ramp rate of up to 150°C (302°F) per second (depending on application parameters)
  • Allows for quick cool-down
  • Provides extremely uniform temperatures over the heater surface
  • Thermocouple integrated into assembly (patent pending)
  • Bonded assembly process ensures reliability of heater/sensor interface
  • Optimized temperature sensing improves accuracy
  • High response rate in ramping applications
  • UL® and CE agency compliance (pending)
  • Designed to meet global safety standards
