BriskHeat® 250 ml Heating Mantle w/Metal Housing, 240v

19BT08 is a 240v heating mantle with metal housing designed to provide uniform heat to 250 ml round-bottom glass flasks. The metal housing features a durable, chemical-resistant plastic coating and is self-supporting to sit on counter tops. This fiberglass insulated heater is grounded for safety. The heating element consists of a chrome-nickel alloy resistance wire which is electrically insulated using a crocheted high-temperature yarn. The heating mantle is capable of temperatures up to 842° F (450° C). Temperature controller required.

About Heating Mantles with Metal Housings
The Cary Company's metal-housed heating mantles feature a metal housing with plastic coating to provide moisture and chemical resistance to the unit. The housing is thermally insulated and safe to touch. Self supporting and heavy duty, metal-housed heating mantles offer additional stability and safety during use compared to stand alone heating mantles.

The heating element consists of a chrome-nickel alloy resistance wire which is electrically insulated using a crocheted high-temperature yarn. The adapted shape ensures an even heat transition to the glass flask, and a layer of fiberglass insulation under the heating element reduces heat dissipation to increase efficiency. This pre-molded liner is compatible with round bottom flasks including boiling and distilling style flasks for a variety of lab applications. 50 ml and 100 ml heating mantle models feature one heating zone. All other heating mantles with metal housings feature two heating zones.

The 120V model includes a standard 3-prong plug (NEMA 5-15) and the 240V model features crimped ferrule terminated leads. These units are capable of operating temperatures up to 842° F (450° C). The heating mantles may be exclusively operated with a personal protection adapter (RCD 30mA) connected ahead of it, not included. Temperature controller is required and not included. Due to the high temperature range, the heating mantles are not protected against moisture and the heater core is not equipped with sufficient protection against dangerous currents.
