Cartridge Heaters HT FIREROD® Performance Capabilities • Platen temperatures to 1800°F (980°C) • Maximum watt density to 100 W/in2 (15.5 W/cm2) • Maximum voltage 277VÅ(ac) to ground • Length tolerance: +0, -4 percent standard diameters; +0, -8 percent for special diameters Features and Benefits • High temperature seal prevents exposure to the atmosphere which minimizes oxidation of the winding wires. The end result is longer life of the element. • Incoloy® sheath is treated for better emissivity, which transfers heat more efficiently.
