OTSHOT RF power supplies
provide a compact and more
powerful alternative for
heating small parts that require a
quick, clean source of heat.
Available models:
• 3.5 kW HOTSHOT
• 5 kW HOTSHOT
• 7.5 kW HOTSHOT
All are ideal for quick, non-contact
heating of small and mid-size parts
and are supplied with a convenient
remote heat station, located up to
ten feet from the power supply
For flexibility in heating parts of
different sizes and composition,
models operate over a 150 to 400
kHz frequency range with excellent
power control to <25 W resolution.
The heating process is quick and
clean; the part or material to be
heated is placed inside an
induction-heating coil made of
copper tubing. The design of the
heating coil and size of the remote
heat station depend on the
characteristics of the part being
heated.
The
Ameritherm
Applications Lab will assist you in
determining the optimum coil
design and heat station for your
application.
After the part is placed in the coil, it
generally requires only seconds to
achieve the target temperature
without flame or gaseous exhaust.
Power is controlled and monitored
with the convenient front panel
LCD and sealed touchpad. Remote
power control uses contact input,
analog input or serial port. The
length of the heating cycle can be
easily controlled with a built-in
digital timer, which can be set from
10 milliseconds up to 10,000
seconds (2 hours, 46 minutes).

HOTSHOT is a water-cooled
system, which connects to a heat
exchanger or other mechanism for
dissipating heat.
With a rack-mountable 17" x 21"
footprint, 5.25" (3U) height and
weight of just 35 lbs., the
HOTSHOT is a truly portable heat
source for soldering, brazing,
bonding, curing, catheter tipping,
melting precious metals and many
other applications.
While
normally
used
with
electrically conductive materials,
the HOTSHOT can also be used to
heat plastics and other nonconductive materials by utilizing a
conductive metal susceptor for heat
transfer.
HOTSHOT is manufactured at our
IS0 9001:2000 certified Scottsville
NY facility.
