Self-regulating system

The cable incorporates multiple semiconductive ceramic heating elements that automatically adjust their heat output in response to temperature changes.

World’s First, Made in Japan

TECHEATER® is the world’s first heating cable that uses semiconductor ceramics as its heating element. It is manufactured in Japan to ensure stable quality and reliable supply.
Applicable for industrial, residential, and commercial use, TECHEATER® offers a wide range of tailor-designed solutions.
We provide customization, consultations, and proposals to meet diverse customer needs.

Feature 1: High Energy Efficiency

Thanks to the PTC* ceramic heating element, the output automatically adjusts itself in response to ambient temperature changes.
As the temperature rises, electrical resistance increases and reduces the current flow; when the temperature drops, the resistance decreases, allowing more current to flow.
This mechanism reduces power consumption and delivers high energy efficiency.

*PTC stands for Positive Temperature Coefficient.
PTC ceramics exhibit a characteristic in which their electrical resistance increases as the temperature rises.

Future 2: Safety

There is no risk of overheating.
Even without a thermostat, the heater will not undergo abnormal temperature rise or burnout.
It also does not overheat when heater sections come into contact, allowing installation with overlapping layers.

Feature 3: High Flexibility

Because it is a parallel-circuit heater, it can be cut to any desired length for use.
The cable is highly flexible, making it easy to install around steps, complex piping, and fittings.
There are both 100V and 200V specifications.
The 100V model is equipped with a power plug, allowing it to be used simply by plugging it into a standard household power outlet.

Feature 4: Adjustable Length

Tech Heater® can be cut to any desired length for use. It also allows for branching and extension.
*Such modifications are difficult with general heating wires.
*Installation and processing must be performed by a certified electrician.
*A dedicated insulation and sealing kit is required for installation.

Future 5: Diverse Applications

Depending on the application and the required heat output, the most suitable specifications and installation methods can be selected.
Thanks to its soft and flexible structure, TECHHEATER® can be adapted to a wide variety of applications.
We provide design and installation services to meet your needs. Please feel free to contact us for consultation.

Future 6: High Durability

The heating element used in Tech Heater® maintains its characteristics even under high temperatures and voltages.
As a result, it does not deteriorate under heat or voltage stress, ensuring an exceptionally long service life. It could operate for over ten years without any issues.

The outer sheath is also both flexible and extremely robust, contributing to the heater’s long-lasting performance.

With its outstanding durability, TECHHEATER® delivers excellent cost performance over the long term.
