cartridge Heaters Medium density

Long elements with high power are available

DESCRIPTION

Medium density cartridge heaters are used for medium temperatures (550°C) and medium surface loads. Resistive coils are placed in longitudinal grooves of MgO bodies, and afterwards bodies are placed in stainless steel tubes. Whole assembly is compacted afterwards thus increasing heat transfer and stability of the heater. This type of cartridge heater is often used for very long elements. For special application we can offer bent elements as per customers request. We produce medium density cartridge heaters as per customers request and wide stock of raw materials enables us to answer to almost every request in short period of time.
