1.- Tubular sheath
It changes according to the material to be heated and the working temperature. See the attached table with some of the sheath material as well as the different diameter options and tube lengths.
2.- Resistive coil
Resistive wire Nickel and Chromium alloy or other metals. The alloys changes according to the type of application of the heating element. The resistive coil can be made with one, two or three wires.
This element is the heat source.
3.- Granular insulated
Electrocast magnesium oxide with the adequate characteristics to Electricfor’s constructive themal class.
Once the magnesium oxide is compacted by lamination or compression, a good thermal conductivity is achieved as well as the correct dielectric strength.
4.- Seal
It protects the heating element against humidity penetration.
Five type of seals, according to Electricfor’s constructive thermal class.
- Airtight seal
- Extra airtight seal
- Extra airtight high temperature seal.
- Porous seal
- Porous high temperature seal
5.- Terminal
In prenickeled steel, stainless steel AISI 303 or steel.
The length of internal terminal determines the cold zone of the heating element.
6.- Connection terminal
Different types of terminal to connect to electricity supply.
7.- Insulation terminal
Ceramics or thermoplastics wall bushing to ensure the dielectric strength between tubular sheath and terminal.
MANUFACTURING PROGRAM OF ELECTRIC HEATING ELEMENTS
(*) Also in single tube up to 1450mm.
Single tubes heaters of class I. General technical characteristics.
The single tube heaters of class II are used mainly in household appliances such as towel warmers, electric radiators, etc. Those require a higher protection against electric shock than equipment for industrial use.
