Enclosure heaters protect electrical/electronic components from condensation moisture buildup that can result in corrosion and component failure. Heaters are available in various heating capacities, operating voltages, and mounting options. Larger capacity heaters include a fan to circulate heat inside the enclosure. Some models include integral thermostats.

Thermal Management
(Temperature and Moisture Control)
AutomationDirect's touch-safe positive temperature coefficient heaters and PTC fan heaters prevent the formation of condensation and provide evenly distributed interior air temperature in enclosures.
Moisture can build up not only in outdoor or poorly insulated enclosures, but also in highly protected and well-sealed enclosures.
- Moisture, especially when combined with aggressive gases and dust, causes atmospheric corrosion and can result in the failure of components such as circuit breakers, busbars, relays, integrated circuit boards and transformers.
- Moisture and corrosion will remain low if relative air humidity stays below 60%. However, relative humidity above 65% will significantly increase moisture and corrosion problems. This can be prevented by keeping the environment inside a control panel enclosure at a temperature as little as 9°F (5°C) higher than that of the ambient air.
Small PTC Heaters
STEGO small positive temperature coefficient (PTC) heaters are designed to prevent failure of electronic components caused by condensation, corrosion and low temperatures in small enclosures.

(020300-00)
Touch-Safe PTC Heaters
These touch-safe PTC heaters are for use in electrical panel enclosures. The design of the heater utilizes natural convection, which results in a circulating current of warm air. The heater's design minimizes surface temperatures on the accessible side surfaces of the housing.
- Compact heater, DIN rail mounting
- Temperature limiting PTC resistor heating element
- 10W, 20W, 50W, 100W and 150W heating capacities
- 12-30 VAC/VDC and 120-240 VAC/VDC input power versions
- Quiet operation
- Low surface temperature
- Double insulated protection
- CE, UL Recognized File No. E150057 (except 060401-00), RoHS compliant
