(88) CONSTRUCTION The use of ceramic inserts to support high temperature nickel chrome resistance wire allow the Delta ceramic heater band to operate at temperatures reaching 1200°F. Corrosion resistant metal is slit along the edges to allow easy fitting of the shroud to the object to be heated.
INSULATION 1/4" of ceramic fiber is placed between the inserts and shroud to provide a 25% energy saving over non-insulated heater bands. Additional insulation can be supplied as an option along with features such as additional metal liners.
CLAMPING METHOD Mounting flanges are standard on Delta ceramic bands. Other clamping methods are available.
