Expert Advice

Paul Jones

Paul Jones says

The Josam JH400 is a compact induction heater for controlled, localised heating in bodyshops and general workshops. I use this type of equipment for loosening seized nuts, pins and clamping rings, supporting wheel alignment work, and straightening sheet metal without an open flame.

The five-stage power control is important because different materials and thicknesses need different heat input. The JH400 is suited to lighter repair work and uses interchangeable tips to reach awkward areas. Its water-cooled system also needs correct maintenance; use the specified distilled water and keep the cooling circuit clean.

A common mistake is applying maximum power for too long. That can overheat the workpiece or transfer heat into nearby components, even though induction is more localised than a gas torch. I always check surrounding materials, access and the required heating time before starting.

Used with the correct tip and power setting, the JH400 is a reliable workshop tool for fast, flameless heating and controlled repair work.

FAQs

What is the JOSAM JH400 induction heater used for?
It provides controlled, flameless heat for lighter workshop repairs, including sheet-metal straightening and loosening smaller machine parts such as nuts up to M24, pins, clamping rings and seized components. It is suitable for professional automotive, bodyshop, truck and industrial workshops.
What power supply does the JOSAM JH400 require?
The JH400 requires a 208–240 V single-phase supply with protective earth, operating at 50/60 Hz and rated at 16 A. Its maximum input power is 4 kW and maximum induction output is 3.7 kW, so the electrical installation should be checked before commissioning.
How long can the JH400 run continuously?
At maximum power and an ambient temperature of 20°C, the stated continuous operating time is 20 minutes. The machine uses a closed, water-cooled system with a 20-litre tank and automatic cooling to help manage operating temperature during workshop use.
What are the main operating features and dimensions?
The JH400 has five heating output levels, an 18–40 kHz working frequency and a 3-metre induction cable for practical access around a vehicle or workbench. It weighs 54 kg with a full tank and measures 520 × 360 × 990 mm; suitable straight and angled inductor heads can be used for different heating positions.
