Plastic Processing Heating Element Cartridge Heaters with Metal Screen Sleeve

Plastic Processing Heating Element of Cartridge Heater with Metal Screen Sleeve


Description:


A cartridge heater is a tube-shaped, heavy-duty, industrial joule heating element electrical resistance used in the process heating industry, usually custom manufactured to a specific watt density, based on

its intended application. Highly compacted they reach a surface watt density of up to 50 W/cm².


The cartridge heater may be divided in 7 main parts:

Heating Coil; Insulation; Sheath; Sealing; Termination; Lead Wire Type; Watt Density


Insulation is used to prevent the Nichrome coil to contact the sheath. If such event happened, it would ground the resistance and potentially produce a catastrophic short-circuit, resulting in a melted sheath and a major equipment failure. Damage can be mitigated by installing a ground fault interrupting circuit. To prevent the coil from touching the sheath, the coil is inserted into the sheath, and immediately filled with Magnesium Oxide (MgO). To ensure the MgO fills the empty space between the sheath and the coil, the cartridge heater is vibratory filled.


The sheath is the part of the cartridge heater which makes contact with the material or substance to be heated. Several metal alloys are used, depending on the type of application, such as highly acidic or corrosive environments. The most common types of sheaths are 304 Stainless Steel, 316 Stainless Steel, and Incoloy 800. Incoloy has the highest temperature rating, it is considered a Superalloy.


After the cartridge heater has been filled with MgO, a seal is applied to the open end of the cartridge heater (where the Nicrome coil was introduced), this prevents the coil and the MgO from coming out. Also, it prevents contamination, such as plastic debris, air, or moisture, to go inside the heater.


Since cartridge heaters are installed in a wide variety of machines, manufacturers must design the heaters to meet certain clearances.[5] [dead link] The cartridge heaters might be terminated with the leads coming out straight, or in a right angle. Also, manufacturer must be careful that the leads are not exposed to temperatures higher than the maximum rating for the lead wire. In order to prevent lead wire damage from temperature, movement or contamination, the lead wire can be protected with metal conduit, braided metal or silicone sleeves.


Depending on the clearance and the design of the machine where the cartridge heater will be inserted, the type of wire used will vary. Fiberglass is the commonly used for cartridge heaters and other high temperature applications, such as automotive wiring harnesses and industrial equipment. Other variants used are silicone impregnated fiber glass and silicone rubber.
