Tempco Low Density Cartridge Heater LDC00442

Features of the Tempco Low Density Cartridge Heaters:

• The standard termination for Low-Density Cartridge Heaters is Type F, consisting of 10″ (254 mm) internally connected flexible lead wires with high temperature insulation, UL approved for 300 Volt or 600 Volt service and temperature rated to 482 F (250 C).
• Ceramic end cap protects the cartridge internally from outside contamination.
• Resistance wire and lead wires are mechanically spliced with heavy wall nickel connectors for a positive electrical connection.
• Helically wound Nickel-Chrome resistance wire is evenly stretched and strung through ceramic insulators.
• Alloy 304 Stainless Steel is used to provide high temperature strength, good thermal conductivity and resistance to oxidation up to 1200 F (650 C). Alloy 304 is a Nickel-Chromium Stainless Steel.
• Specially selected grain size high purity Magnesium Oxide (MgO) is used to fill all remaining space inside the ceramic insulator, thus increasing thermal conductivity, dielectric strength and heater life.
• Sheath is roll crimped over a 304 Stainless Steel end disc. A mica spacer electrically insulates the heater core from the end disc. This style end seal is not moisture proof.
