Value Collection HDS-385A-0054 Strip Finned Heater 1000W

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HDS-385A-0054 is a high density strip finned heater rated at 1000 watts and designed for industrial and commercial resistance heating applications. Built from stainless steel, this heater delivers 8 watts per square inch of heating surface, making it well suited for high-output process heating requirements. It operates on 120 volts and features an offset terminal configuration for easier wiring access in tight enclosures or mounting assemblies. The overall length is 38.5 inches. Licensed electricians and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this type of resistance heating element.

This strip finned heater is used in duct heating, process air systems, industrial ovens, and custom heating assemblies where a compact, high-watt-density element is needed. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with elevated temperatures or mild corrosive exposure. The offset terminal style accommodates installations where straight terminal access is obstructed by adjacent components or mounting hardware. It is packaged and sold as a single unit.

Key Features

• 1000-watt output at 120 volts for high-density resistance heating
• 8 watts per square inch heating density for efficient heat transfer
• Stainless steel construction for durability in high-temperature environments
• Offset terminal style for flexible wiring access in confined spaces
• 38.5-inch overall length suits a range of duct and process heating assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for industrial and commercial strip finned heater assemblies requiring a 120-volt, 1000-watt, 38.5-inch stainless steel element with offset terminals.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with NEC requirements for fixed resistance heating equipment. Disconnect and lock out all power to the heating circuit before removing or installing the element. Verify that the supply voltage and circuit ampacity match the heater rating before energizing. Do not operate the heater without adequate airflow across the fins, as this can cause premature element failure.
