Higher Watt
Density and Temperatures
Watt Flex heaters produce
up to 50% higher warrantable watt-densities than conventional heaters
and can operate at much higher temperatures - up to
1900 degF (1030 degC).
The Watt-Flex Cartridge Heater
is a high-quality tubular heating element bent back on itself and
swaged into a cylindrical format. Dalton manufactures heaters using
only high-purity magnesium oxide, nickel chromium resistance wire
and stainless steel terminals.
Special filling methods and equipment
compact the magnesium oxide inside and around the resistor coil to
extreme density. Swaging further compacts the magnesium oxide to
virtually maximum density, which yields high dielectric strength
and efficient internal heat conduction. Unlike conventional heaters,
Watt-Flex cartridge heaters have no ceramic core that can crack during
swaging.
Watt-Flex Cartridge Heaters run more
efficiently, use less power, last longer and are much simpler and faster
to replace than conventional cartridge heaters.
