CARTRIDGE HEATERS
OMEGA ULTRAWATT
meets the most demanding requirements for reliable, high temperature service
1. PTFE or high density lava locks MgO in place and resists contamination between lead wire and sheath
2. MgO tightly compacted due to swaging.
3. Evenly spaced highest quality resistance wire for uniform heat distribution
4. Welded in place end disc
5. Heavy wall stainless or incoloy sheath for maximum thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance
6. The standard 10" high temperature lead consists of a 1-1/2" solid conductor insulated with durable Fiberglass...plus 8-1/2" insulated flexible leads
  • Fast Heating
  • Long Reliable Service Life
  • Efficient Operation
