The TIH L33 features advanced power electronics with an accurate electric current control to help regulate the temperature rate increase. Its two-step, power setting option of 50 and 100 percent enables smaller bearings to be heated safely with lower power consumption.

The TIH L33 has thermal overheating protection to reduce the risk of damage to the induction coil and electronics, enhancing reliability and safety. Designed for vertical or horizontal heating, these induction heaters feature automatic demagnetization to reduce the risk of ferrous debris contamination.

The TIH L series are available to suit most operating voltages worldwide and can be transported easily with a standard forklift. For heating solid components, SKF recommends the use of its TIH L MB series of induction heaters.
