Silicon Carbide Sic Heating Elements Industrial Furnace Sic Heater For Refractory
The silicon carbide heating element is a kind of non-metal high temperature electric heating element. It is made of selected super quality green silicon carbide as main material, which is made into blank, silided under high temperature and re-crystallized.
silicon carbide rod is a kind of non-mental high temperature electric heating element.It is made of selected high-purity green silicon carbide as raw material which is made into blank and silicon crystal under high temperature of 2400ºC. It can usually make use for furnance which temperature from 600C-1600ºC. It is widely used in various electric heating element of glass,chemical, electronic material and so on.

Notice for using and installing
1. Heater should be protected against damp during storing or installing to ensure the performance of the heater.
2. In order to be sure of well-distributed lod of each and groups, heater should be divided before assembling. The tolerance of the resistance of each one cannot exceed by 10% each other.
3. Heater is hard and brittle, please be careful when assembling and maintaining so as to avoid damage.
4. When operating the electric furnace at the beginning, the voltage should be increased slowly and cannot be fully loaded at once. Otherwise the larger current will be resulted in the damage of heater.
5. When heater is damaged and need to be changed, the resistance of new one should follow the increasing resistance. If many are damaged or resistance increased too much, heater should be changed.

Chemistry Property
1.Antioxidation Property of Elements
The element start to being oxidized when heat to 800°C in air, and a SiO2 protect film will be generated in surface of hot zone when temperature get to 1000-1300°C ; cristobalite will be crystallized at 1300°C; the protect film get to a certain thickness when the temperature get go 1500°C which make the oxidation speed being very slowly to stable. if continue to heat to over 1627°C ,the protect film will be damaged and oxidation speed will be more rapid evidently and make the element damaged earlier.
Thought the element will be oxidized very slowly in course of application, it also will make the resistance increased following long time application, this phenonenon calls ageing , in order to lower the ageing speed, we use special technology to spread a protect film on the surface of hot zone in the course of production, which enhance the antioxidant property of element evidently and lengthen the service life.
2.The effects of alkali and alkaline metal oxide to elements.
The alkali and alkaline metal oxide will react with SiC at about 1300°C and generate silicate, which calls alkali-chemical corrosion, and can influence the glowing of element.
3.The effects to elements from melting metal
Some metals ,such as cobalt, nickel, chrome and so on, can corrade the element in high temperature melting state and affect the service life of element.
Electric Property
SIC heating elements has rather large specific resistance , when it is heated in air and the surface temperature of the hot zone reaches 1050ºC, it's resistance rate is 600-1400 mm2/mm (square millimetre , its resistance value changes as the temperature rises. From room-temperature to 800ºC is negative value , over 800ºC is positive value nature curve.
