The 28mm / 1.1” diameter immersion heater called Supratherm28.
It is composed of an electrical resistance inserted into a high performing electrical insulator conducting heat. These are fitted in a ceramic sheath you can directly immersed into the liquid metal.
It is usually use in light metals industries, with all the attendant advantages over traditional solutions:
- No energy losses
- 99% yield
- Up to 40% energy consumption reduction
- Accurate ±2°C temperature control
- No overheating = no dross
- No metal losses
- No CO2 emissions, eco friendly
- Furnace refractory longer lifetime
Heating directly into the heart of metal guaranties an improved metal quality with no overheated areas and nearly no corundum.
