Industrial Band Heater
The Tempco MBH20554 is a 240 V band heater rated at 500 W with a watt density of 31 W per square inch and a maximum operating temperature of 900 °F. It is designed for cylindrical heating applications in industrial process equipment.
Suitable for cylindrical process heating
This heater suits maintenance teams and OEMs needing consistent conductive heat on pipes, barrels or nozzles where a 240 V supply is available. It is not intended for immersion heating, flexible hose wrapping or low-voltage control circuits.
500 W capacity and thermal headroom
At 500 W the unit comfortably maintains steady temperatures on small-to-medium diameter metal surfaces up to its 900 °F limit. Continuous operation beyond the rated watt density or voltage will reduce element life and risk premature failure.

Questions about this item
What voltage supply is required for the 240V 500W band heater?
The heater operates on a 240V supply and delivers 500W of power.
Will the 31 W/sq in watt density suit the existing barrel diameter on my machine?
The heater has a watt density of 31 W/sq in; verify that your barrel diameter matches the heater's 8 in. diameter for proper fit and heat transfer.
How can I confirm the heater reaches its rated temperature after installation?
Use a calibrated contact thermocouple or infrared pyrometer on the sheath to verify the heater achieves the 900°F maximum operating temperature under load.
