Tempco Miniature Hi-Density Cartridge Heaters are ideal for applications where space is restricted and high, concentrated power is required. The small size of the heater provides lower internal temperatures and faster heating response times. Swaged construction allows for higher watt densities, higher operating temperatures, and longer heater life.
The standard sheath material is 304 Stainless Steel which provides good thermal conductivity and resistance to corrosion and scaling. The welded end disc made from the same material as the sheath provides a positive seal against moisture and other contaminants. Grade “A” Nickel-Chrome resistance wire precisely wound on a high purity magnesium oxide core places the resistance wire as close to the inside of the sheath as possible. A high purity Magnesium Oxide (MgO) powder is used to fill all remaining space inside the sheath. Heater is then swaged, which compacts the magnesium oxide grains into a solid mass.
Other Features and Benefits:
- Custom Design
- Swaged Construction
- Great Thermal Conductivity
- Resistance to Corrosion & Scaling
