Channel Strip Heaters have proven to be extremely efficient and dependable as a heat source for surface heating in hundreds of industrial and commercial applications. The rectangular tube gives full surface contact when used in a milled slot to provide maximum heat transfer area.
For surface mounting installations, channel strip heaters must be securely clamped along their entire length to a smooth metal surface. When supported by mounting tabs, the terminal end should be secured firmly. Opposite end should be loose to allow for thermal expansion.

can I use the Platinum series PID (OMEGA™ CS8DPT/CS8EPT) controller with this?
You can use the benchtop Controllers but you would have to use an external SSR to be able to handle the Amperage the Heater will draw. The relay only handles 3 Amps output 1 and the SSR output 2 is only rated for 5 Amps.

Can this heater be used in a 10^-6 torr vacuum environment?
These Heaters are not recommended for use in Vacuum.
