While there are many factors that determine a heaters upper temperature limit, understanding temperature limitations in a heater is essential for maximizing heater performance and ensuring safety.

The 3-phase systems are called 3-phase delta and 3-phase wye and this document will explain how to connect your single phase heaters to such a system, and how to check that it’s done correctly.

Sometimes heaters can be operated at a voltage that’s different from what they’re designed for. Sometimes they cannot. Learn the consequences of applying a voltage to a heater that’s different from what’s marked on it.

Delta and Wye are a common point of misunderstanding and cause for confusion when understanding and calculating how 3-phase power is used.

TUTCO can provide a wide variety of heater options for many of our product lines. Some of those lesser known but very useful options are distributed wattage heaters, zoned heaters, and dual voltage heaters.

An existing customer needed a new solution for heat in a custom HVAC system used in an agriculture transport trailer that required the temperature to be controlled in a certain range.

TUTCO offers four different types of strip heaters suitable for various applications. Learn about the use and proper mounting of the various models.
