TIH 15/120V, SKF, SKF Compact workbench heater 100-120V, 50/60Hz

The compact workbench heater TIH 15 is used to heat and mount roller bearings onto a shaft with an interference fit. Its compact design means it will fit easily on a workbench with space to spare. It is light weight enough to be portable and be moved to field or other site locations. Typical applications include maintenance and service jobs on assets such as gearboxes, pumps, fans and blowers.

The device features near-silent operation thanks mainly to the use of sophisticated medium-frequency technology. It features a U-shaped iron core with inductive coils underneath. Current in the coils generates a fluctuating magnetic field. This induces currents within the component, which are converted to heat. Only the component is heated, ensuring that the process is highly energy efficient.

The heater causes the bearing to homogeneously heat up and expand, ensuring that the bearing can be positioned around the shaft without the need for any force during installation. The TIH 15 can also be used to heat other ring-shaped, metallic components like e.g. couplings, that form a consistent and low resistance closed circuit.

The heater keyboard control panel is intuitive to use, allowing the user to select either Temperature Mode or Time Mode.
