SUpported wire elements

Wires, ribbons or coils between isolated points

DESCRIPTION

Elektrotermija manufactures supported wire and coil elements in a wide range. The wire, ribbon or coil are mounted freely between insulated points and are exposed to the mechanical stress caused by its own weight and its own spring force. The best example is the element with open coils for use in tumble dryers. We also produce elements for heating curtains and fan heaters, to mention a few examples. Temperature control is achieved with thermostats and/or thermal cut-offs.
