FAQ

What is the maximum operating temperature?

Our high-temperature cartridge heaters are designed to operate continuously at temperatures up to 750°C (1400°F), depending on the application and sheath material selected.

 
How do I select the correct wattage for my application?

Wattage selection depends on the mass of the material being heated, the required temperature rise, and heat losses. A proper heat calculation is recommended. Please contact our engineering team for assistance in determining the optimal watt density for your needs.

 
What are the most common causes of cartridge heater failure?

The most common causes of premature failure are contamination (from oil, moisture, etc.), an improper fit (too loose in the bore), and overpowering (incorrect watt density). Ensuring a clean, tight fit and correct wattage are crucial for long heater life.

 
Can these heaters be used in a vacuum environment?

Yes, but special considerations are required. In a vacuum, heat transfer is primarily through radiation and conduction, not convection. This often requires a lower watt density and specific design modifications. Consult with us for vacuum-rated applications.
