Atcera: Ceramic Heating Elements: Types, Characteristics, and Applications
Ceramic heaters are mainly divided into two types: alumina and silicon nitride, with the following characteristics: 1. Miniaturization, light weight, and power saving; capable of achieving high power density and high thermal efficiency, allowing for the installation of heating elements with various capacities simultaneously. 2. Excellent thermal characteristics, demonstrated by fast heating rates and the ability to achieve any temperature distribution. 3. High safety and reliability, reflected in good electrical insulation performance and voltage resistance characteristics, with heating resistance not oxidizing, minimal disconnection and aging, and good corrosion resistance. 4. Wide application, capable of heating liquids such as water and kerosene, as well as solids like metals. 5. Environmentally friendly, with no pollution or noise. Types and basic structure of ceramic heaters: The ceramic heating resistance material (resistance film, resistance sheet, or resistance wire) is embed
