150w PTC Element for Electric Heated Towel Rails & Towel Radiators & Towel Warmers

• LATEST ENERGY SAVING HEATING TECHNOLOGY: Our PTC elements are the latest and most energy efficient towel rail heating elements on the market today. PTC technology unlike traditional heating elements that use a resistance wire, use ceramic stones. These ceramic stones are manufactured to heat up to a around 65 degrees and then maintain that temperature by reducing the power used. Initially the element will use 150 watts of power until the rail reaches its’ designed operating temperature of 65°
• TECHNICAL INFORMATION: CE aproved and IP55 rated which means they can be used in Zone 2 in a bathroom: Power 150w, Requires a 3 amp fused Spur, Element length 170mm Standard 1/2" bsp thread, 1m long power lead
• WHAT TOWEL RAIL SIZES WILL THIS ELEMENT HEAT: This heating element will provide enough power to heat the following Suitable for standard ladder rails 300mm wide x 800, high, 400mm 500mm wide x 600 high and towel rails with a small number of cross bars. The elements can be used horizontally or vertically
• GUARANTEE: This heating element is covered with a manufacturers 2 year guaranee to give you confidence you are buying a quality product that will last.

PTC heating elements are the latest and most energy efficient towel rail heating elements on the market today. This element allows you to convert a standard central heating towel warmer to run on electricity – perfect for when you don't want to alter your central heating pipework, if you don't have regular central heating or if you want the freedom to use your towel rail throughout the year. PTC technology – how does it work? Unlike traditional heating elements that use a resistance wire, PTC heating elements are made as ceramic stones. These ceramic stones are manufactured to heat up a defined temperature and then maintain that temperature by reducing the power. Initially the element will use 200 watts of power until the rail reaches its’ designed operating temperature of 65°C after which it will reduce the electrical current whilst maintaining the rail temperature. As a result, a separate thermostatic control unit is not required, and the heating element uses significantly less electricity than a conventional heating element. Suitable for standard ladder rails 300mm wide x 800, high, 400mm 500mm wide x 600 high and towel rails with a small number of cross bars.
