STOCK Flexible Heater image

Overview

Besides the “made to spec” products, Zoppas Industries also provides a wide range of standard flexible heaters, available in our stock in different sizes and ohmic values, as commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solutions for commercial applications and testing equipment.
Standard parts are available for immediate delivery (according to stock availability).


According to the units’ final usage, moreover, Zoppas Industries provides the stock heaters with 2 levels of qualification (Qualification Model (QM) Heater , ESCC Flight Model (FM) Heater), to allow coverage of all possibilities from Institutional, Military or Commercial Programs, to more fast-paced and budget-minded applications on Cubesats, Nanosats or Constellations, or to Ground Testing facilities.


Select from the standard products’ list in the datasheet the solution that will best fit your application. If the size or shape of your heatsink precludes using a single standard heater, you can cover the surface with a mosaic configuration, connecting multiple heaters in parallel.
