Glass Tube Heater For Refrigerator

A glass tube heater for refrigerators is a tubular heating element designed to prevent frost buildup on the evaporator, drain pipe, or door frame. Encased in a heat-resistant glass sheath, it ensures uniform heat distribution and long-lasting performance. These heaters are commonly used in automatic defrost systems to maintain efficient cooling. Applications: Refrigerator evaporator coil defrosting Drain line frost prevention Commercial and industrial freezers Display cases and cold storage units Features: Heat-resistant glass tube: Ensures durability and safety in moist environments Even heat distribution: Promotes efficient defrost cycles Energy efficient: Low power consumption Moisture and corrosion resistant: Ideal for refrigeration environments Custom lengths and wattages available Specifications: Voltage: 110V / 220V AC Power Rating: 10W – 200W (model dependent) Length: Typically 150mm to 1000mm Outer Material: Borosilicate or quartz glass Temperature Range: -30°C to 120°C Mounting Type: Clip or bracket mount Ingress Protection: IP55 or higher (depending on model) Questions: Where should a glass tube heater be installed in a refrigerator for maximum defrost efficiency? How do glass tube heaters compare to aluminum or silicone rubber heaters in refrigeration systems?
