PRODUCT ENGINEERING
Surface contact and flexible circuit layout
Thick Film Kettle Heater Element: Define the heated outline, substrate material and mounting method. Continuous contact supports uniform heat transfer; air pockets, folds or partial bonding can produce local hot spots.
Keep the active circuit clear of fasteners and sharp bends. Confirm adhesive compatibility, lead strain relief and sensor location at the substrate rather than selecting power from pad area alone.
For Thick Film Kettle Heater Element, request the missing voltage, power and finished dimensions before calculating current, selecting a supply or fixing the mounting pattern.
For Thick Film Kettle Heater Element, send the supply, continuous and peak temperature, mounting drawing, lead exit and quantity. Include the heated medium and control method so the quoted configuration can be checked against the actual duty.
Application and reference configuration
Surface warming and compact equipment assemblies. The final suitability of Thick Film Kettle Heater Element depends on the assembled equipment and agreed operating conditions.

ARCHIVED PRODUCT INFORMATION
Description
Thick Film Heater is one of today's most innovation and forward-looking solution for electric heating field.
The thick film heater is comprised of screen-printing dielectrics (5 layers), resistance (palladium-silver), conductor (silver) and isolation glazes on the substrate and sintered 8 times at temperature over 900℃.
It can heat water insantly due to the high power (6000W maximum for single heater).
For applications where space is limited, thick film heater is very advantageous to traditional ones for its compact size.

Key Features
High heating efficiency and fast response: Thermal efficiency exceeds 97%, with a temperature rise rate of 80–150°C per second, enabling instant on-demand heating without the need for preheating stored water.
Compact structure and high power density: Small in size, with a power density of 40–100 W/cm², ideal for integration into miniaturized equipment designs.
Safe and durable: Constructed with food-grade stainless steel substrates and multi-layer insulation technology, offering corrosion resistance, leak-proof performance, and a service life of over 6,000 hours.
Uniform heating: Surface-based heating eliminates common issues of traditional heating tubes such as limescale buildup and localized overheating, ensuring stable and consistent heat output.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| High Heating Efficiency | Thermal efficiency exceeds 95%, offering 15%-30% higher energy savings than conventional heating plates. It supports fast temperature rise and instant heating. |
| High Power Density | Delivers high power in a compact footprint, making it ideal for heating base designs in space-constrained devices like electric kettles and coffee machines. |
| Enhanced Safety (Water-Electricity Separation) | The multi-layer insulation structure ensures the heating layer is completely isolated from water, with the base material directly in contact with the liquid, providing excellent anti-leakage performance. |
| Anti-Limescale & Long Service Life | Uniform heating eliminates local overheating, significantly reducing limescale formation. It has a cycle life of over 100,000 on/off operations. |
| Precise Temperature Control | Planar heating ensures a uniform temperature field, enabling high control accuracy for precision heating applications. |
Structure & Working Principle
Core Structure: Using a stainless steel (or copper) disc as the base material, the plates are manufactured via thick-film printing technology. Multiple functional layers are sequentially printed on the surface: an insulating dielectric layer, a resistive heating layer, a conductive electrode layer, and a protective coating. The blue sections in the image represent the insulating layer, the dark lines are the resistive heating circuits, and the white pads on the right are the electrode terminals for power connection.
Working Principle: When energized, the resistive layer generates planar heat, which is transferred directly to the contact medium (e.g., water) through the base material. This achieves fully isolated heating between electricity and water.
Typical Applications
Home Appliances: Heating bases for electric kettles, health pots, coffee machines, instant water dispensers, and electric hot water bottles.
Industrial/Medical: Small fluid heating equipment, laboratory heating devices, and medical constant-temperature heating systems.
Other Scenarios: Small kitchen appliances and portable heating devices.
