TYPES OF TERMINATIONS FOR CARTRIDGE HEATER

Elmec Cartridge heaters are available in low, medium and high watt densities with internally externally connected leads. We also manufacture Split type cartridge heaters for high temperature applications. We built every technically possible heaters as per your requirement.

  • LOW DENSITY CARTRIDGE HEATERS
Elmec Low Density Catridge Heaters are made of helically wound nickel chrome resistance wire evenly stretched and placed in ceramic insulators. The elment assembly is inserted into Brass/SS 304 tube. High grade MgO powder is filled in the remaining space inside the ceramic insulators to increase thermal conductivity, dielectric strength and heater life.


Features

  1. Low watt density heaters are available in brass or SS 304 sheath.
  2. Medium & High watt density heaters are available in SS 304 sheath.
  3. Braided Wire, straight or right angle exit.

  2. Length  - Available in any desired length
  3. Max watt density 3.5 watt/sq cm.
  4. For higher wattage and high temperature we recommend high watt density cartridge heaters.
Terminals
  1. Available in Teflon wire, fiberglass wire and nickel chromium wires. Insulated with ceramic beads or fiber glass sleeves.
  2. From Dia 22mm onwards, screw connections are available
  3. Send drawing or samples for any specific configuration
  4. Fibre glass or tefflonwire crimped or welded to terminals
When Ordering please Specify :
  1. Type of heater
  2. Wattage and Voltage
  3. Dia & length of the heater
  4. Drawing for special type configuration
We can manufacture and supply any intermediate diameter and length, Send drawing or sample for special size.

  • HIGH DENSITY CARTRIDGE HEATERS

Elmec High Watt Density Cartridge Heaters are manufactured with most advanced technology and quality raw materials, enables usage with high watts in small spaces and advanced manufacturing process ensures our heaters are vibration proof and thus ensures excellent reliability in heavy duty working conditions (Like Plastic Processing, Printing, Packaging and automobile industries where the heaters are subjected to heavy vibrations). The high performance is achieved by correct installation of the cartridge heaters. The perfect fitness of the heater in the hole facilitates good heat exchange between the surfaces of heater and mass to be heated thus increases the heater life and reduces energy loss.


Applications
  1. Plastic processing machinery
  2. Hot runner mould
  3. Packaging machinery
  4. Dies & moulds
  5. Shoe machinery
  6. Labeling machineries and a lot of other applications.
  7. Food processing machinery
  8. Hot Stamping
  9. Heating gases and liquids.

Features
  1. Sheathing material : SS 304 and SS 316
  2. Available with inbuilt Thermocouple 'J' or 'K'
  3. Maximum sheath temperature 800oC
  4. Rugged & durable construction
  5. Highly compacted construction improves heater life and reduces the effect of vibration and shock.
  6. Excellent heat transfer.

Mounting bore clearance:
The gap between the heater O.D and the bore I.D should be very close.

To determine Fit :
Fit = Largest hole I.D - Min heater O.D
Ex: Heater O.D = 12.5 mm (± 0.06mm std. tolerance)
Hole I.D = 12.6 mm (± 0.02mm hole tolerance)
Min heater O.D = 12.44 mm
Largest hole I.D = 12.62 mm
Fit = 12.62 - 12.44 = 0.18 mm (max permissible clearance)

Refer Operating temperature Vs Watt density graph to find max permissible clearance.
