Caloritech SS1141 120V 250W 11.75-Inch Strip Heater
The SS1141 is an 11.75-inch Caloritech SS strip heater rated at 250W on a 120V supply. Its aluminized-steel sheath and offset bolt terminals make the physical layout an important part of replacement selection: matching watts alone does not establish that another strip will fit the same mounting and wiring space.
Specifications and included details
- 120V electrical rating and 250W power; listed heat output is 853 BTU/hour.
- 11.75-inch length with an aluminized-steel sheath.
- Two offset bolt-type terminals and 5/8 x 9/32-inch mounting slots.
- Maximum sheath temperature is listed as 1000°F (538°C); this is not a controlled process-temperature setting.
Before ordering
Compare the SS1141 manufacturer drawing with the existing mounting surface, slot positions and terminal clearance. Have a qualified installer confirm the supply, circuit and application-specific temperature controls. A separately supplied control panel must be checked for this heater and installation; a general panel reference does not establish compatibility.
Product questions and answers
Will another 11.75-inch, 250W heater replace SS1141?
Those dimensions and watts are only part of the match. Confirm the 120V rating, SS-series identity, offset terminal arrangement and mounting drawing before choosing a replacement.
Does the 1000°F rating mean the heated part stays at 1000°F?
No. It is a maximum sheath-temperature specification. The workpiece temperature depends on heat transfer, heat loss and the selected controls; it is not a guaranteed setpoint.
Is SS1141 supplied as a complete temperature-control system?
The listing describes the strip heating element and references external controls. Do not assume a thermostat, sensor or control panel is included; confirm the required control equipment separately.
