SILICONE RUBBER ENCLOSURE HEATERS
RUGGED, RELIABLE AND SAFE TO OPERATE
Designed for freeze and condensation protection, Watlow’s enclosure heaters are rugged, reliable and safe to operate. These rectangular-shaped, wire-wound silicone rubber enclosure heaters can be ordered by themselves with adhesive or vulcanized to an aluminum mounting plate. A thermostat can be attached to the heater or mounted separately. Pictured are enclosure heater units with thermostat on heater in foreground and heater with remote thermostat in background.
- Pressure sensitive adhesive mounting for quick and easy installation
- Several standard thermostat set points ensures protection against freezing with minimal energy consumption
- Remote thermostat option provides optimal choice of heater location versus temperature control location
- No exposed electrical connections creates a safe and reliable operation
- Multiple lead options accommodate a variety of wiring requirements

THERMISTORS
FAST, ACCURATE, REPEATABLE TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT
Watlow thermistors are designed to ensure fast, accurate and repeatable temperature measurement. Thermistors are highly sensitive to small changes in temperature and maintain accurate temperatures over a limited range. These sensors are made with either epoxy-coated or glass-coated constructions and can be used in the most demanding environmental conditions.
- Designed to maintain accuracy over the life of the sensor improves process control
- High resistance reduces the chance for errors
- Interchangeable maintains good system repeatability
- Point sensitive senses temperature in a very specific location

MILLED GROOVE TUBULAR HEATERS
PRECISION FORMED TO YOUR HOT RUNNER MOLD APPLICATIONS
WATROD milled groove heaters are precision-formed and customized to your hot runner mold application. Even tight radius bends of 0.250 inch maintaining tolerances of ±0.062 to ±0.002 inch are possible. This capability not only allows you freedom to design for the optimum uniform heating pattern for your plastics process, but also guarantees quick and easy installation.
Simply send your groove dimensions in a detailed drawing or on CAD file. Depending on the formation requirements, the resulting CAD design will be transferred to either Watlow’s CNC bending equipment or a highly skilled bending operator.
A variety of sheath materials are available including alloy 800, 304 stainless steel and 316 stainless steel, each offering unique advantages of long life in high temperature molds, rigidity to maintain shape during shipment and corrosion resistance.
Watlow not only delivers the heat fast to the process with efficient heat transfer, but guarantees the heater’s fast delivery, too. While Watlow guarantees standard delivery within three to four weeks, tough delivery schedules are Watlow’s specialty.
- Precise conformity to customer specifications ensures easy installation
- Alloy 800 sheath material are corrosion resistant and capable in high-temperature environments
- 304 stainless steel features excellent pliability – best choice for small bend radii
- Superior resistance coil design produces even heating
- Threaded stud or lead wire termination as required provides robust options for challenging environments

SERIES CZR
SOLID STATE RELAY OFFERS A COMPACT, VERSATILE MERCURY-FREE SOLUTION
The SERIES CZR solid state relay provides a low-cost, highly-compact and versatile solid state option for controlling electric heat. With DIN-rail and back panel mounting standard on every controller, the CZR solid state relay allows for simple and quick installation.
The extensive capabilities of the SERIES CZR include single-phase, 18 to 42 ampere zero-cross switching up to 600VAC (see output rating curve). It’s unique integrated design removes the guess work associated with selecting a proper heat sink and precise terminations for the application.
This solid state relay controller holds many agency certifications and is ideal for applications that require UL®, CSA and CE approvals. The SERIES CZR is available in VAC/VDC input contactor versions and all configurations are model number dependent and factory selectable.
The SERIES CZR solid state relay is protected by a two-year warranty.

SOLID STATE RELAYS
MORE FOR LESS: LONGER HEATER LIFE AT LOWER COST
Watlow solid state relays (SSR) offer many of the advantages of solid state power controllers, but at a lower cost. Watlow’s extensive knowledge in power controller design led to the development of a special fast cycle input card that enables a solid state relay to operate from a standard 4-20mA instrumentation command signal. Test results show that zero-cross solid state relays in combination with the fast cycle card promote better temperature control and longer heater life than slow cycle relays. Through a time proportional cycle rate of 1⁄10 of a second, heater life will be extended.
Both low and high voltage solid state relays are available from 24 to 660VAC. All ac output models include back-to-back silicon controlled rectifiers (SCRs) for a more rugged design than the traditional triac-based solid state relay. The internal design allows it to tolerate high currents and harsh electrical environments of heavy industry. Watlow also offers a switched VDC model for dc heating applications.
Watlow provides all of the components necessary for trouble-free operation. This includes two standard convenience items: a thermal foil to ensure proper thermal transfer from the relay to the heat sink and belleville washers to ensure that the relay is mounted with sufficient pressure to enable good heat transfer. Matched semiconductor fuses and heat sinks are available to complete the power switching package.
