Specifications:
Nominal Power/Panel: The MHI URP Heating Panel is a universal scalable radiant panel that offer high temperatures of 1200C-1400C at ~1.8 kilowatts (this is the maximum temperature range and maximum power allowed for the heating coils (looped)).
Each panel features special heating GAXP flat- coils (as shown) and Fractalin-ceramic spacers (as shown) mounted firmly on a thermal shock resistant insulation slab. This is a scalable module. Please only construct a furnace enclosure with these panels with approval by a local electrician – the panels carry current and can heat to high temperatures. Each panel has two terminals below the ceramic board (not shown in the picture). Horizontal use only; For Vertical use, please choose URP-V Vertical Panel.
When using, please ensure that no specification is exceeded, i.e., of the rated current, voltage, power, and temperature. This heating panel can be used with a BPAN control system, which can also be acquired from MHI Inc. Please email [email protected] or call 513-772-0404.
Electrical Specifications: Each Panel ~ Maximum panel volts are 55- 58 Volt, maximum current should not exceed 30 Amps (RMS maximum). The maximum coil temperature should not exceed 1350C on the coil as measured with a two-color optical pyrometer. Note that two units in series equal 110V-120V plug-in.
Control Options
Control Options:
• One URP panel – BPAN-O-PLUS and Power Transformer (choose a BPAN-O-PLUs-120 or BPAN-O-PLUS-220) and Power Transformer.
Two URP panels in series- a BPAN-O-PLUS-220 (with a transformer required for 240 or 220V to 110 V). Please order the BPAN-O-PLUS 220
• Two URP panels in series- a BPAN-O-PLUS-120 (no transformer required for 110 V only if the 110V socket can deliver at least 30 amps).
• Four URP Panels in series- a BPAN-O-PLUS-220 (no transformer required)
A control and an over-temperature thermocouple should be chosen for the BPAN-O-PLUS Control Panel. Thermocouple options are shown. Please also choose the thermocouple extender wire for each thermocouple.
Four panels may be connected in series for a 220-240V plug-in configuration. Balanced series-parallel connections may be used (purple and red in the picture). All measurements are reported in the free radiating mode.

L1 = 12″
L2 = 12″
L3 = 9.5″
L4 = 10″
T= 1.125″ (thickness of thermal shock-resistant insulation slab below the heater coil).
Lu = 7″ (Terminal Length). The terminals protrude about 6″ from the bottom of the insulation board (on the other side of the heating face). Use may request shorter Lu with quantity purchase.
Options:
The connectors comprise clip-type connectors (used to connect the wire and solid terminal) and two wires. One set, when chosen from the options menu comprises two clips and two wires i.e one for each lead. The rating of the connectors is 35 amp wire carrying capacity. Dimension – 6″ wire.
If required to extend beyond the 6″ standard, please contact MHI, and we will happily accommodate the request as best as possible.
The weight will be calculated with the control panel option when checking out.
The correct weight and shipping price will be shown in the final acknowledgment from MHI.
