Advantage

A spiral slot in the hot zone reduces the cross sectional area. This provides the electrical resistance ratio to make the ends cool and the hot zone hot.

X-Distance from the centerline of element to any reflecting surface, such as a refractory wall or product.

Z-Distance from the centerline of the element to a moving or stationary load.

S-Distance from centerline of the elament to the centerline of an adjacent

X=2×Starbar diameter is the minimum,

1.5×Starbar diameter is the absolute minimum and requires a reduced elament surface watt loading.

Z=S÷1.41 minimum for stationary loads

Z=S÷1.73minimum for moving loads.

S=2×Starbar diameters minimum.

The advantages of SG type type SiC heating elements

SG type type SiC heating elements have high-density low-porosity element. They are able to survive severe environments.

The high density prevents the internal lattice structure from being oxidized.

This type element has an extremely slow aging characteristic.
