An industrial heating element with a tube shape called a cartridge heater can be put into pre-drilled holes. In the heating process business, cartridge heaters are frequently utilized because they offer precise and localized heating.
Cartridge heaters can be specially made to a specified watt density based on the needs of the application and are typically used to heat a metal block from the inside.
The majority of the time, cartridge heaters are inserted into drilled holes to heat metal objects. The heaters are slightly undersized compared to their nominal diameter for simple installation.
A resistance coil is twisted around a ceramic core, which is covered in a metal sheath and surrounded by dielectric in a cartridge heater. The sheath warms up as a result of the heat that is transmitted through the coil to it. The interior metal component that needs heat then receives this heat transfer.
In low or medium temperature applications (600°F or less), general purpose drills are typically sufficient for drilling holes for cartridge heater installation.
Fits range from.009″ to.014 when holes are drilled.003″ to.008″ larger than the drill’s nominal size. Even though the fit is a little looser than what would allow for the best heat transfer, it makes it easier to install and remove cartridge heaters, particularly those with long sheaths.
The Global Cartridge Heaters market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
High Watt density cartridge heaters from the OMEGALUX CIR series are produced to the highest industry standards using only premium materials. Working temperatures for CIR In colony encased cartridge heaters can reach 1400°F (760°C), while sheath temperatures can reach 1600°F (870°C). They are particularly well suited for use in applications involving Moulds, dies, platens, hot plates, and sealing procedures due to their superior corrosion resistance.
Heavy duty OMEGALUX C Series cartridge heaters are particularly well suited for use in applications involving the heating of containers, plates, Moulds, and dies.
