W Type SiC Heating Element

The W-type silicon carbide heating element features a distinctive “W”-shaped design, also referred to as the M type, and incorporates three efficient heating units.

Constructed from high-purity, high-density silicon carbide particles through a re-drying self-bonding process, the W-type heating element is engineered explicitly for three-phase power applications, making it an ideal choice for processes such as float glass production.

When ordering a W-type silicon carbide heating element, please provide the following details:

OD: Outer diameter

HZ: Hot zone length

CZ: Cold zone length

OL: Total length

A: Handle spacing

D: Connection bridge diameter

For instance: W type with outer diameter=20 mm, HZ=250 mm, CZ=350 mm, OL=625 mm, A=52 mm, resistance=0.9 Ω.

Designated as: W type, 20/250/625/52/0.9 Ω

Note: Should you require specific specifications, please get in touch with us, and we will customize solutions to meet your needs.

The W-type silicon carbide heating element features a right-angle structure between its two cold ends and the heating zone, enabling versatile installation on the furnace top or side. This design is particularly well-suited for furnaces with limited space or those where two-end wiring is impractical.

For excessively wide or tall furnaces, positioning the W-type rods along one side allows the furnace’s inner surface to be divided into multiple temperature zones, enhancing control and improving temperature uniformity.

The W-type silicon carbide heating element delivers outstanding performance in float glass production. Engineered for manufacturing soda-lime flat glass within a float bath, it supports a range of applications including building, automotive, and solar glass.
