The GHD electrical heating element, code SIRHEATMINI3, designed for the MK3 Mini MS3 series (without sensor), has a nominal resistance of 160 Ω and is made of ceramic. The ceramic heater generates the heat that is distributed across the surface used to straighten hair. Compatible with the models listed at the end of the description.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDetails and technical specifications\u003cbr\u003e- GHD adaptable spare part\u003cbr\u003e- MPN (Manufacturer Part Number): SIRHEATMINI3\u003cbr\u003e- Country of manufacture: Made in the United Kingdom\u003cbr\u003e- Material: ceramic\u003cbr\u003e- Colour: white\u003cbr\u003e- Compatible series (check the models under compatibility): MK3 Mini MS3 (without sensor)\u003cbr\u003e- Thermal paste: Recommended\u003cbr\u003e- Type of heating element: Ceramic heating element\u003cbr\u003e- Integrated sensor: No - without integrated thermistor\u003cbr\u003e- Connection type: Cables with terminals\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDimensions verified by hand by the PG Service team\u003cbr\u003e- Round spade terminals 4.2mm\u003cbr\u003e- Cable length 5cm \/ 50mm\u003cbr\u003e- Straightener length 69.5mm\u003cbr\u003e- Straightener width 7.1mm\u003cbr\u003e- Thickness 1.2mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat is its function?\u003cbr\u003eThe heating element of a hair straightener is used to generate the heat that is transferred to the surface intended for styling. The heating element is powered and regulated by the appliance's electronics, while sensors and safety systems monitor the temperature. A heater with a value of 160 Ω should only be used when this value, along with the dimensions and connections, matches that specified for the model: choosing a spare part based solely on its shape can lead to incorrect heating.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSymptoms: what problems can you solve by replacing the heating element\u003cbr\u003eDoes one of the two plates remain cold while the other heats up normally? If the other surface regularly reaches the correct temperature, check the continuity, connections, and resistance value associated with the cold plate.\u003cbr\u003eDoes one plate take much longer than the other to heat up or remain less hot? Check the heater's value, the thermal contact with the plate, and the corresponding sensor, as not all temperature problems are directly caused by the heating element.\u003cbr\u003eIs the heating intermittent, and does the plate alternate between hot and cold during use? A damaged connection, loose terminal, or cracked element can cause interruptions as the temperature changes. Also check the PCB and sensor before replacing the component.\u003cbr\u003eDoes the straightener display an error, issue warnings, or stop heating before reaching the correct temperature? The heating element may be one of the possible causes, but the thermistor, thermal fuse, and electronic circuit must also be checked. An electrical measurement of the component prevents unnecessary replacements.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCare and maintenance of the spare part\u003cbr\u003eThe internal heating element does not require periodic cleaning by the user. To preserve the hair straightener, it is best to regularly remove residue from the styling plates without spraying cleaning products directly into the openings of the appliance. Water, sprays, and cosmetic products must not come into contact with the heating element, terminals, or temperature sensor. A damaged heating element must not be glued or repaired with improvised materials.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstallation instructions\u003cbr\u003e- This repair requires opening the straightener and accessing electrical components, so it is recommended for a technician. Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool completely before disassembly.\u003cbr\u003e- Before removing the old heater, photograph the connections and electrically test the original component.\u003cbr\u003e- Separate the faulty element from the plate, taking care not to damage the thermal sensing and protection components. Clean off any residue from the previous thermal interface without scratching the surfaces.\u003cbr\u003e- For the new element, the use of thermal paste is Recommended. Apply it evenly according to the specified procedure and position the heater without creating gaps or pressure points.\u003cbr\u003e- Reconnect the cables without pulling them and keep the insulated parts away from moving surfaces.\u003cbr\u003e- After fully closing the appliance, perform an electrical and thermal test to ensure that both plates heat up normally and that the temperature control operates correctly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTips from the PG Service professionals\u003cbr\u003e- Before replacing a ceramic heating element, use a multimeter to measure the value of the original element and compare it with the value specified for the spare part. For this component, the nominal value is 160 Ω: do not choose a heating element simply because it has similar dimensions. Do not bend or twist the ceramic during installation, as the rigid material can crack and lose electrical continuity. The use of thermal paste is Recommended to ensure uniform contact with the heating support. The most common causes of failure are loose connections, cracked ceramic, thermal stress, and overheating caused by control circuit malfunctions. To extend the life of the heating element, always heat up the straightener with the terminals open and never with the block inserted, as the plates could overheat quickly and damage the internal components.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIs it not exactly the item you are looking for?\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to the electrical heating element spare part, our shop offers hundreds of original GHD accessories and spare parts.
