In many applications including: glass, ceramics, electronics and metal industries, and also for re- search and development. Examples of some typical furnaces where QS SIC elements are the natural choice are illustrated below:
Applications
The single ended connection of QS SG&SGR elements makes them ideally suited to various applications where standard elements cannot conveniently be used, such as where access would be difficult, or in any case where single ended connections are essential.
QS SG and SGR elements are used in a wide variety of furnace applications, from small laboratory furnaces to large industrial heating processes, in different atmospheres and temperature ranges. The elements allow great freedom in furnace design which, combined with simple installation and long operating life.
makes them the preferred choice in many applications including: Glass, ceramics, electronics and metal industries and also for research and development.
Examples of some typical furnaces where QS SG and SGR elements are the natural choice are illustrated below.
High temperature laboratory furnaces
•Creep testing, MOR and DTA
•General purpose box and tube furnaces
Batch and continuous furnaces to 1600°C (2910°F)
• Alumina ceramics
• Electronics components
• Tin oxide electrodes
• Luminous powders
• Powder metal sintering
Melting and holding of non ferrous metals
• Crucible or reverberatory
• Immersion heater
