Cartridge Heaters – What’s right for your application?

The right cartridge heaters are critical to your shop’s ability to run efficiently and effectively.
The level of heat dissipation required for your application will dictate both the wattage and the diameter of your cartridge heaters. The following formula explains how to figure your specific watt density:
Watt
Density
= Total Heater Wattage
Heated Length x Cartridge Diameter x 3.14
Selecting the right source for your cartridge heaters also depends on a number of important considerations, including:
  • Superior customer service
  • Availability of off-the-shelf cartridge heaters for immediate delivery on standard applications
  • Ability to customize cartridge heaters to match your unique application based on your specifications, such as:
    • Diameter
    • Length
    • Wattage
    • Voltage
    • Lead configurations or Terminals
    • Built-in Thermocouple
    • Sheathing
    • Threaded vs. non-threaded connectors
IMS provides all this – and the security of knowing a specialist is on staff to help provide technical assistance.
