Device for the safety-controlled heating of a pressurized gas container

Abstract

Device for the temperature-controlled heating of a pressurized gas container, in particular a gas cartridge for a portable cooking appliance, comprising: at least one heating element, at least two temperature sensors, and a control device, characterized in that the at least two temperature sensors are configured to detect the temperature of an outer wall of the gas container, that the control device is configured to actively regulate the heating power of the at least one heating element as a function of the temperature values ​​detected by the temperature sensors in order to maintain the temperature of the gas container within a defined temperature range, and that the control device is further configured to perform a safety shutdown of the at least one heating element when at least one predetermined safety criterion occurs.
