Open Coil Heater, 240 Or 480v Ac

Product Details

Description:-Open coil heating elements have open circuits consisting of coiled resistance wire (usually Ni- Chrome or FeCrAl) fixed onto a supporting element that heat the medium directly. Termed as the most efficient and versatile while also the most economically feasible solution for heating, these elements have fast heat up times that improve efficiency and have been designed for low maintenance and inexpensive replacement parts.When an electrical current is applied to the wire, it gives off heat. The wire is connected to the control panel which regulates the amount of he aprovided by the electric heater and fills the tunnel of the air handling unit. Because of the low mass and fast response time, SSR or SCR  switching devices are advisable. They serve as an indirect solution to decrease watt density requirements and prevent heat sensitive materials from breaking down. The heater can be formed into a compact, coiled nozzle heater supplying a full 360 degrees of heat with optional distributed wattage. The face velocity of the air passing over the open coil elements must not be less than a minimum specified value when the heater is energized. There are three factors that are considered when an appropriate face velocity is calculated, i.e. kW, frame size and heater element type. Sufficient airflow for the required kW in a given frame prevents an overheating condition. Heat must be dissipated away from the heating elements.Different Configurations:-One, two or four resistance wiresParallel coil or straight wireDrawn or swaged sheathsWith or without thermocouplesRound, rectangular or square cable cross sectionals.Advantages:-High ductilityLow massConstructed with no open seams.Plastic injection molding nozzlesSemiconductor manufacturing and wafer processingHot metal forming dies and punchesSealing and cutting barsMedical, analytical and scientific instrumentsRestaurant and food processing equipmentCast-in heatersLaminating and printing pressesAir heatingTextile manufacturingHeating in a vacuum environment . body,div,table,thead,tbody,tfoot,tr,th,td,p { font-family:"Liberation Sans"; font-size:x-small }Technical DetailsRatingUp to 50 W/in2Watt Density1100°FOperating Temperature1400°FOutside diameters1 7/8'' and 2 ¾''ControlsSSR/ SCR/ Relays/ RTDTerminationsCustomized
