What Is a Flat Oil Diffusion Pump Heater?

A flat oil diffusion pump heater is an electric heating element specifically designed to heat the boiler section of an oil diffusion pump.

Unlike conventional round tubular heaters, the flattened profile increases the contact area with the pump base, improving thermal conductivity and heating efficiency.

These heaters are commonly installed in:

  • Oil diffusion pumps
  • High-vacuum systems
  • Vacuum coating equipment
  • Semiconductor processing equipment
  • Scientific research systems
