China Air Duct Heaters - High-Quality Suppliers and Factory Options for Industrial and HVAC Applications
Air Duct Heater Introduction
They are primarily used for heating air in air ducts and are available in three different sizes: low-temperature, medium-temperature, and high-temperature. Their common structural feature is the use of steel plates to support the heating tubes to reduce vibration, and an over-temperature control device is installed in the junction box.
Temperature Ranges
Low-temperature heaters heat gas temperatures no higher than 160°C; medium-temperature heaters no higher than 260°C; and high-temperature heaters no higher than 500°C.
Vibration & Control
Steel plates are used to support the heating tubes to reduce vibration, and an over-temperature control device is installed in the junction box.
Safety Interlocks
A coupling device ensures the heater starts only after the fan starts. Additionally, a differential pressure device is installed before and after the heater to prevent fan failure.
Pressure Limits
The gas pressure heated by the duct heater should generally not exceed 0.3 kg/cm². If pressures exceeding this limit are required, a circulating electric heater should be used.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What are the different temperature classifications for air duct heaters?
Air duct heaters are classified into three temperature ranges: low-temperature heaters (up to 160°C), medium-temperature heaters (up to 260°C), and high-temperature heaters (up to 500°C).
How does the air duct heater reduce structural vibration?
The heater utilizes steel plates to support the heating tubes, which effectively minimizes vibration during operation.
What safety features prevent the heater from operating without the fan?
A coupling device is installed between the fan and the heater, ensuring that the heater can only start after the fan is running.
How is fan failure detected and managed?
A differential pressure device is installed before and after the heater to detect and prevent issues arising from fan failure.
What is the maximum gas pressure limit for a standard duct heater?
The gas pressure for a standard duct heater should generally not exceed 0.3 kg/cm². If your application requires higher pressure, a circulating electric heater should be used instead.
