The RTF FlexiPanel stands as a self-contained, high-performance flexible heating panel meticulously designed for application on fiberglass and plastic tanks or vessels. It is equally well-suited for metallic tanks and vessels containing high viscosity or temperature-sensitive fluids. Engineered to deliver heat outputs at a remarkable 1,085 watts per square meter (0.7 watts per square inch) or less, the RTF FlexiPanel ensures uniform heat distribution across its entire surface, maintaining stable temperatures with precision.

Thermon RTF FlexiPanel Features

Versatile Application: Tailored for use on fiberglass and plastic tanks or vessels, as well as metallic tanks and vessels containing high viscosity or temperature-sensitive fluids, the RTF FlexiPanel offers versatility in its application.

Even Heat Distribution: Designed for optimal performance, the RTF FlexiPanel distributes heat uniformly over its entire surface. This feature is crucial for maintaining stable temperatures in a variety of tank and vessel configurations.

Low Profile Flexible Design: The low-profile and flexible design of the panel facilitates rapid and trouble-free installation, complemented by the mounting kit available from Thermon. This design flexibility ensures seamless integration into diverse tank and vessel systems.

Parallel Circuit Design: The RTF FlexiPanel employs a parallel circuit design based on a stamped high-temperature alloy heating element. This innovative design ensures multiple flow paths for electrical current, eliminating burnout potential commonly associated with series wire-based designs.

Rugged Construction: The panel features a rugged construction with a durable metal jacket that provides mechanical protection during handling and installation. The heating element is further shielded from vibration and moisture by being sandwiched in a heat-laminated layer of silicone rubber, offering cushioning and a watertight seal.

Safety Compliance: RTF FlexiPanels are approved for use in both ordinary (nonclassified) and hazardous (classified) areas, ensuring compliance with safety standards across a range of operational environments.

Thermon RTF FlexiPanel offers a cutting-edge solution for tank and vessel heating, combining versatility, even heat distribution, flexibility in design, and robust construction. Its innovative features make it a reliable choice for industries requiring precision heating for diverse applications.
