Protecting Switchgear and Control Panels from Moisture

Anti-Condensation Heaters

PEREGRINE Anti-Condensation Heaters (20W–120W) are designed to protect switch and control gear cabinets from humidity and moisture damage. By gently raising the internal temperature, they prevent condensation and safeguard sensitive electrical components, machinery, and panels from shorts, rust, and corrosion – reducing failures and extending equipment lifespan.

 

Compact and energy-efficient, these low-wattage heaters consume minimal power while offering reliable protection. Their versatility makes them ideal for electrical enclosures, control panels, server cabinets, and cold storage units. Each unit features an LPC vitreous enamelled resistor housed in a perforated steel case for durability and safe heat distribution.

 

When choosing the right heater, a general guideline is to allow 10–12W for every square metre of panel surface. For best performance, install the heater on the cubicle’s back plate with the resistor in a horizontal position and the terminals facing downward. To maintain consistent conditions, we also recommend fitting a separate thermostat inside the cubicle, placed away from the heater itself to avoid direct heat influence.
