Thermal’s Engineered Products Take Precision Performance to the Next Level for Medical and Biotechnology
The medical electronics industry demands precise solutions to highly sensitive applications. Thermal Circuits, Inc. etched foil heaters provide medical device manufacturers with the inherent advantage to distribute wattage infinitely and exactly. Combining this feat, with Thermal Circuits’ skill in material science and the industry’s broadest selection of element and dielectric materials, often yields a competitive advantage.
The OEM’s scientists, engineers and managers can be assured that Thermal Circuits team of application engineers are the best choice to meet their individual design challenges. Through research, development and innovation, Thermal Circuits continues to provide effective solutions including conductive/surface, convective/air and infrared heater assemblies.
Thermal Circuits etched foil heaters are used in blood analyzers, dialysis instrumentation, DNA analysis, human genome research or genetic testing systems, invasive probes, life support fluid warmers, sterilizers, tissue processors, transportable incubators, thermal cyclers, and hybridization ovens.
