Mica Band Heaters - Installation Tips

• The cylinder should be clean from any contaminants and foreign materials
• The heater should be tightened firmly on the cylinder. The rims should be gently tapped with a plastic mallet and the heater re-tightened

• Energize the heater for a short period of time and then re-tighten the fasteners

• To compensate for thermal expansion, large diameter heaters should have spring loaded fasteners

• Tone piece construction heaters should be opened only slightly, and made to slide on a cylinder. Two piece construction or flexible heaters should be used when a heater has to be fully opened
