Medium Density Cartridge Heaters

HITCO Medium Density Cartridge heater is a proven performer like the High Density Cartridge Heater (HDC). That’s because the same quality materials go into its constructions; MgO insulations, nickel-chromium resistance wire, silicone-fibreglass insulated lead wires. The only difference is that the Medium Density Cartridge is packaged in a more economical design. Instead of having the high watt density capabilities; it’s made of medium watt density application. These heating elements can be supplied with all the different connection leads. Supplied with surface load up to 15w / cm².

Performance Capabilities

• Part temperatures to 600° C (1100 F)
• Maximum watt density to 15 w/cm²)
• Maximum Voltage to 480V (ac)

Features and Benefits

·         Magnesium oxide insulation, compacted to the proper density, results in high dielectric strength and contributes to faster heat-up.

·         Nickel-chromium resistance wire, precisely wound through the heated length, assures even, efficient distribution of heating to the sheath.

·         Metallurgically-bonded conductor pins, crimp connected to the resistance wires, ensure trouble-free electrical continuity. This process provides lead flexibility just 8 mm (5/16 inch) form the end of the heater.

·         Flexible standard wires, with silicone-fibreglass sleeves, insulate the wires to temperatures of 250°C(480 F)

·         Optional lead end with silicone rubber seal protects the leads against moisture and other contaminates.
