Benefits |
High temperature ICA resistance elements |
- Bounds integrally into required position
- Allows five element configurations
|
Lightweight, low-density alumina-silica composition molded into shape |
- Acts as an insulation to isolate the heating chamber from the outside
- Provides low shrinkage fiber and inorganic binder
- Assures a firm, thermal shock resistant, self-supporting unit at all operating temperatures
|
Operating temperatures up to 2200°F (1204°C) |
- Provides high temperature performance not possible with many other heater types (See page 472 for detailed limits)
|
Low mass ceramic fiber insulation of 10 to 15 lb/ft3 (160 to 240 kg/m3) |
- Allows the heater to reach process temperature quickly
- Allows the energy to heat the load instead of wasting energy on itself
|
Works directly off common power line voltages |
- Eliminates the need for expensive transformers or complex power control systems
- Allows compatibility with the full range of Watlow temperature controllers and power switching devices
