Hot Plates & Radiators
Thermoplate™ and Glow Panels
Thermoplates and HeatPads are rated by the temperature and surface area.
Glow Panels are rated by the device power, radiation area and the radiating temperature.
MHI offers a variety of specialized surface and radiative heatersHigh Life, High Warranty, High Power, High Temperature, High Heat-up RateThermoplate Models

Features
Thermoplate™ Features
MHI Thermoplates™ are an industrial grade, high power, high temperature hot plate capable of reaching temperatures of 1400°C within 4 seconds after initially reaching full power. Ideal for use as a laboratory hot plate. Thermoplates™ feature a stainless steel construction and electronic controls. Thermoplates™ are offered with quartz or ceramic tops, both exhibiting excellent uniformity.
| General Information | |||
Internal features of the Thermoplate construction include combinations of special ceramics and metals with the UltraSpiral heating element as shown in pictures below. Choice of tops (closed and open) up to 1800°C. Please contact MHI for possibililities. |

Comparing typical Gas Burners to Electric GlowPanels™ Please compare the Power and Temperature Power Rating Conversion 90,000 BTU/hour = 26.4 kiloWatts (kW) The radiation intensity increases with temperature A faster heat-up and drying results from a higher temperature and higher power
