Frequently Asked Questions:
What is a thermal element and what is its use?
A thermal element is a part that converts electrical energy into heat by passing electric current through a resistance wire. This part is used in various industries such as industrial devices, ovens, food equipment, plastic machinery and many household appliances.
What materials are used to make the element?
The most important material in the construction of the element is resistance wires such as Nichrome or Cantal. Magnesium oxide powder is also used for insulation, and metals such as stainless steel or heat-resistant alloys are used for the outer shell.
What are the main stages of producing a thermal element?
The production process of the element usually includes engineering design, selection of raw materials, winding of resistance wire, placing the wire inside the sheath, filling with thermal insulation, compression, bending and finally testing and quality control.
Why is engineering design important in element production?
Correct design makes the element have higher thermal efficiency, lower energy consumption and longer life. Also, proper design prevents overheating or premature failure of the element
What are the types of heating elements?
Heating elements are produced in different types, the most common of which are rod element, cartridge element, belt element, ceramic element and coil heater. Each of these elements are designed for specific applications in the industry.
How to increase the life of the thermal element?
Using the right voltage, preventing the element from working without temperature control, choosing the element that fits the application and using high-quality raw materials are the most important factors that help to increase the life of the element.
The quality of raw materials, accuracy in the production process, proper density of internal insulation, engineering design and conducting standard tests are the most important factors that affect the performance and durability of the heating element.
What information is required to receive the price?
Power, voltage, dimensions, shape, type of application and required number are the most important information for pricing.
What is a cartridge element?
A cartridge or cartridge element is a cylindrical heating element that is installed in a hole or cavity of metal parts and is used to create local heating in industrial equipment.
What devices is suitable for making elements with wire?
This type of element can be used for furnaces, industrial heaters, packaging machines, dryers, food equipment, plastic injection machines, laboratory heaters and many thermal equipment.
Or is the element based on the old model?
Yes, if you provide a sample, image or map, it is possible to review and make a similar or modified element.
Is it possible to make a custom element?
Yes, Celsius industrial group produces wire elements in different forms, dimensions and powers according to customer needs.
How is the price of cartridge element calculated?
The price is determined based on the diameter, length, power, voltage, sheath material, working temperature, type of output wire, presence of thermocouple and order quantity.
Is it possible to make cartridge element with custom dimensions?
yes The cartridge element can be custom produced or supplied based on the diameter, length, power, voltage, type of output and required working conditions of the device.
What is the difference between cartridge element and rod element?
In the market, these two titles are sometimes used interchangeably; But the cartridge element is usually called a cylindrical type with a small diameter, which is designed to be installed inside the hole of a mold or metal piece.
What should be done to increase the life of the cartridge element?
Choosing the right power, installing with proper slack, temperature control with thermocouple and controller, protecting the output wire and preventing the element from being turned on outside the installation location will increase its life.
Why does the new element burn very quickly?
The rapid burning of the new element is usually due to a problem in the device; Such as improper voltage, failure
Does the deposit cause the element to burn?
yes Deposit on the body of the element prevents heat transfer and increases the temperature of the surface of the element. The continuation of these conditions can lead to premature burning of the element.
Can the burnt element be repaired?
In most cases, industrial element repair is not recommended in terms of safety and durability. It is usually better to identify the main cause of the failure and then replace it with a new element with the correct technical specifications.
How to understand that the element is burnt?
Failure of the device to heat up, circuit breaker, blown fuse, severe temperature drop, or visible damage on the element can be a sign of failure. For accurate diagnosis, resistance measurement and insulation test are recommended by an expert.
What is the most important reason for element burning in the water tank?
Dry operation and sedimentation are the most important causes of element failure in water tanks. Using liquid level control and periodic service can avoid this problem.
