> UHV-compatible Kapton heaters from Taiwan KLC (part number TSC013D003GR36Z01), with nominal resistances of 36 Ω and 14.4 Ω for 4 W and 10 W power at 12 V, respectively
> Although having an easy integration and proven vacuum compatibility, along with low cost, the flexible nature of the Kapton heaters made the clamping to the components a potential source of failure.
<!--quoteend-->
> Therefore, a new heating element is under development for higher reliability.
> As depicted in Fig. 2, it consists of an **SMD nickel thin film and alumina power resistor from Susumu**, soldered over a small aluminium metalcore PCB (Printed Circuit Board) using a lead free (SAC305) solder paste.
> The board is then encapsulated inside a small aluminium case using the Stycast 2850FT epoxy resin along with CAT11 catalyser.
> The aluminum PCB and housing serve as efficient heat condutors to the part of interest
