OverviewThe three-branch silicon carbide (SiC) heating element, type W (internal code SP-SIC-W), is designed for industrial heating systems requiring a three-phase, three-branch configuration. Elements are manufactured to order to fit oven geometry and meet electrical requirements. Available specifications include diameter, hot and cold zone lengths, branch separation and electrical resistance.
Configuration parameters- OD: outside diameter
- HZ: hot zone
- CZ: cold zone
- OL: total length
- A: separation between branches
- D: bridge
- Ω: electrical resistance
Applications- Industrial ovens
- Technical ceramics
- Metallurgy
- Glass processing
- Powder metallurgy
- Heat treatment processes
- Specialized heating equipment
Selection and replacementSelection must consider the oven geometry, mounting arrangement and electrical specifications. For replacement elements, provide clear photographs, all dimensions and electrical data of the installed component to ensure equivalence. Type W SiC elements are produced to order and must be specified by OD, HZ, CZ, OL, A, D and required Ω.
Frequently Asked Questions- What is a W-type SiC element? A three-branch silicon carbide element configured for certain industrial three-phase heating installations.
- What information is needed to order? Diameter, hot zone, cold zone, total length, branch separation and electrical resistance are required.
