PTC Hot Air Testing Overview
KLC conducts PTC hot air testing to evaluate the thermal performance, air velocity, and surface temperature of its PTC air heaters under various voltage and airflow conditions. This testing ensures product reliability, thermal stability, and consistent self-regulation behavior.

Key Parameters Measured:

  • Air outlet temperature (°C)

  • Surface temperature of heater fins (°C)

  • Max voltage and Max Inrush current (V/A)

  • Power@Air Speed 6.4m/s (W)

  • Heating time to target temperature (seconds)

Test data helps engineers validate product performance and select the optimal PTC heater model for specific applications, including automotive HVAC, dryers, and defrost systems.

Key Features

  • Self-Regulating: Automatically adjust their power as temperature rises—no external controller needed.
  • Safe Operation: The self-limiting temperature prevents overheating, ensuring reliable and safe performance.
  • Energy Efficient: Fast heat-up with low energy consumption over time makes our heaters cost-effective and eco-friendly.
