Ferro Techniek BV is a leading global manufacturer of thick film heating and offers a variety of products and
technologies for the domestic appliance market.
The products for the domestic appliance market range from heating elements to full sub-assemblies with temperature control devices.
Applications
Ferro Techniek provides Thick Film products for various domestic appliances.
Below are some of the most common:
Baby Care
The Flow Through Heater is ideal for baby food prep. It can produce hot water at a precise temperature for making baby milk or steam for heating pre-prepared food or steam for sterilisation. The major benefit is speed. One FTH in the appliance can instantly switch between these functions and deliver what is required in seconds. There is no waiting time.
Steam Cleaners
Ferro Techniek heating technology will provide a controlled flow of steam. Rapid start and stop when you need it, at the desired rate. There are standard packages, which are either the boiler or the flow through heater. Custom designs are possible to fit into smaller spaces or with a different flow rate, temperature & power requirements.
Grill Plates & Teppanyaki
Ferro Techniek Contact Heating elements are bolted to the underside of a stainless steel plate, giving an evenly heated & responsive cooking surface. Due to the distribution of the heater tracks, the stainless steel can be thinner, hence heat and cool faster, plus can heat right to the edges or used to set different temperature zones.
Our Custom Project Capabilities
Customers often come to us with an idea about a new project/ solution and a need for our expertise. We are more than happy to
share our facilities, experience and expertise at this initial stage. The earlier we are involved in a project, the more we can aid the
optimization of core issues such as the choice of materials, components and technology, temperature control, energy consumption
and sustainability cost efficiency and compliance with all applicable norms and regulations.
Ferro Techniek engineers listen to a customer’s particular requirements and will design and develop a custom element. This might be to suit size requirements or power supply & limitations. Some want precise control. There are many different reasons.
Every thick film element needs reliable electrical connections. Some need sensors and a thermal fuse. Ferro Techniek alongside Otter Controls will design and build these into an assembly which makes it an easier package for installing in the appliance.
With many years of experience of applying thick film heating to different situations, Ferro Techniek has a strong team to assist customers. Having worked closely with every customer to date, they have a good understanding of their own technology in other products and meeting international approval standards.
Relevant Standard Products
Ferro Techniek has various standard/off the shelf components which can be easily integrated into an application,
with minimal engineering work.
FTH Ⅱ is an ultra fast, high pressure, flow through heater based on a thick film heating element.
Water runs at high speed along a channel over the heater surface. This optimises the heat transfer, resulting in hot water in just seconds. FTH Ⅱ delivers water up to boiling temperature and can also create steam! The heater will vastly improve the sustainability of your application.
The FTH XL is the scaled up version of the FTH Ⅱ with a maximum power of 3400W.
The FTH XL is able to handle high flow rates with a low back pressure since its channel size is twice as large as the FTH Ⅱ. This results in a good flow of hot water in seconds. Energy efficiency is key because you just heat what you need!.
