Overview
Imtec high-purity Accuheat PFA in-line heater are desinged for hydrofluoric acid (HF), potassium hydroxide (KOH), and other chemistry compatible with PFA. These PFA heaters push widely accepted high-purity materials to operating extremes while maximizing performance and reliability. IMTEC has once again taken heating of high-purity liquids to a new level of performance and reliability.
IMTEC has once again taken heating of high purity liquids to a new level of performance and reliability. Heating liquids using high purity materials in a harsh environment requires special skills and knowledge that can only be gained from experience. For over 40 years, IMTEC’s Engineers have been refining and improving the heated quartz bath and understand the critical needs of the Semiconductor and related industries. The sum of that knowledge has been incorporated into the Accuheat PFA in-line heater to create products that not only perform, but simplify installation and maintenance as well. Exemplified by our long-standing ISO 9001 registration, our dedication to manufacturing process control assures that our customers receive uniformly high-quality products in a timely manner. IMTEC offers a wide range of standard and custom models to allow for easy integration into almost any application.
