The Helio PTC heating elements from Innovative Marine allow for replacement of elements or expansion of your Helio PTC Smart Heater system. As part of the Helio heater system, the heating elements utilize advanced PTC (positive temperature coefficient) technology to set new standards for safety and reliability. Unlike traditional heating elements that utilize resistance wires to generate heat, the Helio heaters were developed utilizing PTC technology from the aquaculture industry, which relies on solid-state ceramic chips that are programmed to reach a predetermined temperature. Thanks to these smart ceramic chips, the heaters are naturally resistant to overheating. Having built-in temperature regulation and commercial-grade titanium heating sheaths adds redundancy and increased safety to any heater controller system. 

 

Features

  • Corrosion resistant PTC titanium element
  • Fast warm up with low surface temperature
  • Solid State Ceramic Chips regulate heat
  • Long Life, energy efficient
  • 5 Year manufacturer warranty

 

The advanced heating elements work hand-in-hand with the PTC Smart Controller which continually communicates with and monitors the heating elements to maintain a stable temperature.

 

Four Sizes Available

  • 100W
  • 200W
  • 350W
  • 500W

 

Note: Helio PTC heating elements are not a standalone heating element and are not compatible with other heating systems due to the specialized plug.

Product Questions

Can I just buy the hearer without controller and just use a regular power adapter? If so, what adapter you recommend? I have apex so i let it do the controlling side. Thanks

Hey John, thanks for the question! The helio heater must be run on the helio controller as it is a DC plug.

I have a 68 gal can I use two 200 watt elements or do I need one or two 350 watt. My home is over 200 years old and the ambient temp is pretty cold in the winter. Thank You.

We would recommend 2x 350W, that way if one goes out the other one can still heat the tank adequately.
