TIH L44/LV SKF induction heater

SKF TIH L44/LV Induction Heater

The SKF TIH L44/LV is an advanced industrial-grade heating device utilizing modern electromagnetic induction technology. It is designed for precise, non-contact heating of large-scale metal components such as bearings, bushings, and pulleys. The TIH L44/LV model combines massive heating power with precise parameter control, allowing for the safe mounting of interference-fit components without the risk of thermal damage to the material.

Application

• Non-contact heating of heavy metal components (bearings, hubs) up to 1200 kg prior to mounting.
• Preparing large-scale parts for dismounting during overhaul processes.
• MRO operations in heavy industry, power generation, and transportation sectors.
• Workshop tasks requiring strictly controlled heat without the use of open flames.
• Industrial applications where component cleanliness is a priority (no oil baths).

Technical Specification

• Model: TIH L44/LV
• Manufacturer: SKF
• Type: High-power industrial induction heater (Large Series)
• Power Supply: Low Voltage (LV) version – 200–240 V / 50–60 Hz
• Maximum Bearing Weight: 1200 kg (2600 lb)

Note: Exact connection parameters and maximum workpiece dimensions should be verified against the official SKF technical datasheet prior to installation.

Features and Benefits

• Massive Performance – enables fast heating of very heavy bearings, drastically reducing downtime.
• Automatic Demagnetization – prevents the bearing from attracting metallic debris, ensuring long-term durability.
• Operator Safety – the remote control panel allows the device to be operated from a safe distance from the magnetic field.
• Material Protection – the temperature probe prevents steel overheating, protecting the internal structure of the components.
• Robust Design – durable housing built for intensive use in harsh factory and workshop environments.
