SKF TIH L33/MV Extra Large Induction Heater - 400V-460V/50-60 Hz

The SKF TIH L series heaters are designed for induction heating of large size rolling bearings. With advanced power electronics and an effective dual coil design, the TIH L series can heat large bearings weighing up to 1 200 kg (2 600 lb), using just 20 kVA of electrical power. This represents a power saving of almost 50% compared to similar induction heaters and highlights how SKF Induction Heaters are simultaneously powerful and efficient. Unusually for a bearing heater for large bearings, the TIH L series can be supplied in medium and low voltage versions.

A comprehensive range for bearings and other workpieces

The comprehensive range of SKF Induction Heaters is suitable for most bearing heating applications. The chart gives general information on choosing an induction heater for bearing heating applications.³

The SKF m20 concept represents the weight (1200 kg) of the heaviest SKF spherical roller bearing of TIH L44/MV which can be heated from 20 to 250 °C (68 to 482 °F) in 20 minutes. This defines the heater’s power output instead of its power consumption. Unlike other bearing heaters, there is a clear indication of how long it takes to heat a bearing, rather than just the maximum bearing weight possible.
