A cartridge heater with an internal thermocouple is for applications where monitoring the internal temperature of the heater is necessary as over-heat protection or where material flow is close to the heater sheath as in plastic molding. 12″ high temperature (850°F/450°C) leads are standard. When ordering, specify whether the junction is grounded or ungrounded and what type of thermocouple needed. The standard position for either a grounded or ungrounded junction is at the bottom.
Advantage of High Density Cartridge Heater:
- Designed to provide maximum power in the smallest area, and work closely with the cassette electric tube.
- The heating tube temperature can effectively conducted to be heated, they are able to provide a good heater life.
- Unliateral outlet design allows the control and distribution of the machine easier to facilitate and reduce the size of the machine.
- Mold hole is plugged directly into heating, easy to install, durable, heat quickly indeed uniform.
