Electric Ceramic Insulated Strip Heater With Stainless Steel Sheath

1. Ceramic Insulated Strip Heater Brief Description

GME Ceramic Insulated Strip Heaters are constructed of specially selected high quality materials, beginning with the high temperature alloy resistance wire uniformly coiled and spaced over the width of the heated length of the strip heater. This controlled coil process and replacement assures uniform heat distribution over the entire active surface of the heater. Special care is taken to secure the stud-type terminal to the high-temperature alloy resistance contact. The coiled resistance wire is embedded in a special refractory Material that possesses excellent heat transfer characteristics and superior insulation properties. The entire heater assembly is encased in either stainless or chrome steel sheath and is compressed under high pressure. The completed assembly is heated under controlled conditions to bake and semi vitrify the refractory for a rigid, vibration resistant, heavy-duty heating unit.

2. Construction of Ceramic Insulated Strip Heaters:

a. Seamless stainless steel sheath

b. Post terminals

c. Ceramic element support

d. Element wire situated in close proximity to outside surface for maximum heat transfer and minimum internal temperature while preserving good dielectric qualities.
