Bearing Heater is fabricated for heating gears and bearings. The heat results in the expansion of the bearings after which they can be assembled by placing them on the shaft. The bearing heaters are available in different sizes and configurations and are used for heating bearing of different diameters. Heating time require to expand your bearings is determined by the metal characteristics of that particular bearing.

Features

• The heater is provided with temperature and time control
• Fast, safe and precise heating
• Environment friendly
• Over Current Protection
• Thermal Protection
• Demagnetization can be achieved automatically

Precaution
Though bearing heater has many advantages however it can also destroy a bearing very quickly hence it is advisable that one should take necessary precautions which are as follows:

• There should be certain safe guards in the bearings heaters which will help to prevent permanent bearing damage.
  
  
• It is necessary that bearing heater bearing heater should have a timing cycle. The timer turns the heater on and off every few seconds until the bearing reaches its selected temperature.
  
  
• Demagnetizing cycle should also be installed in your heater because the bearing becomes magnetized during heating.
  
  
• Temperature probe should be installed in order to prevent overheating
  

Safety Tips
Below are few safety tips that must be kept in mind before operating the bearing heater.

• Bearing Heater should not be used in any area where flammable vapors are present as this may cause fire or explosion.
  
  
• The temperature should be monitored while heating the material.
  
  
• Do not use bearing heater to heat flammable materials this can cause explosion or fire.
  
  
• Bearing heater should not be used on or near where combustible substances can be ignited as this can result in fire.
  
  
• Near heat-sensitive materials, bearing heater should not be used.
  
  
• Prevent the heater or the control system from getting wet as it can result in its failure.
  
  
• These heater should be electrically grounded in order to avoid the possibility of electrical shock to the operator.
