Induction heating systems are used in thermal therapy (thermotherapy) to generate alternating magnetic fields in the laboratory to elevate and manage the temperature of a solution of nano-particles in vitro or (in animal studies) in vivo.
Our systems accomodate your research power and frequency needs, providing accurately adjustable power-levels from 1 kW to 10 kW and configurable frequency ranges from 150kHz to 400kHz. Core field-strengths up to 125kA/m can be achieved.
