Outdoor Electronics

OUTDOOR APPLICATIONS

All Flex heaters are often used in devices that reside outdoors where the temperature and humidity levels vary constantly and inhibit the device from delivering information, sensing/recording elements, mechanically functioning, or reliably operating for extended periods of time.

TEMPERATURE IMPACT

Devices and equipment that are exposed to cold temperatures create design challenges for manufacturers. The typical thermal cycling introduces molecular expansion issues that can impact electronics, cause mechanical wear, introduce moisture variation, restrict moving parts, and other functional and operational problems. All Flex heaters help to keep temperatures of these devices and equipment at a much more stable environment, which not only eliminates problems, it helps designers manage tolerances and variation much easier.
