Definition of SG-type Silicon Carbide Heating Element

The SG-type silicon carbide (SiC) heating element is manufactured via high-temperature recrystallization, utilizing SiC's semiconductor properties to efficiently convert electrical energy into radiant heat . Its design incorporates a uniform-diameter rod with a localized spiral groove, creating distinct cold-end and hot-zone functional areas for high-temperature industrial furnaces in oxidizing or inert atmospheres .

A key characteristic is its unique resistance-temperature relationship: a Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC)​ below 800°C (resistance decreases with temperature) and a Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC)​ above 800°C (resistance increases with temperature) . The maximum service temperature is 1500°C in air, reaching up to 1625°C in specific protective atmospheres. These elements are widely used in industries including ceramics, metallurgy, glass manufacturing, and scientific research.

SG-Type SiC Heating Rod Installation Method

  1. Inspection: Check for cracks before installation. Ensure no structural issues in the furnace affecting rod placement.
  2. Installation: Vertical or horizontal installation. Self-supporting at high temp, but furnace must allow free thermal expansion.
  3. Fixing: Install ceramic chucks/clamps on cold ends, ensure they are outside furnace to prevent overheating.
  4. Power Connection: Use flat aluminum braid and spring clamps to connect to 110–480V power supply, matching resistance correctly.
  5. Heating Debugging: Gradually increase to working temp to avoid thermal shock. Enter normal load after stable furnace temp.
  6. Regular Maintenance: Check aluminum-coated connectors and clamps for looseness or corrosion.
  7. Note: Installation should be performed by professionals. Contact us for detailed manuals.

 

SG-Type Heating Scenario Design Recommendations

SG-Type SiC Heating Element Configuration & Furnace Matching:

  • Hot Zone Length: Match the furnace chamber's effective heating width. Prevent contact with furnace walls to avoid ablation.
  • Cold Zone Length: Furnace wall thickness + 50–150 mm external connection allowance. This prevents end overheating if too short and avoids an extended non‑heating zone if too long.
  • Furnace Port Size: Recommended port diameter is 1.4–1.6 times the cold end diameter. Seal with ceramic fiber gaskets to accommodate thermal expansion and prevent stress damage.
  • Spacing Design: Maintain a minimum distance of ≥3× element OD from furnace charge or walls. Center-to-center spacing between adjacent SiC rods should be ≥4× OD. This reduces radiation shielding and improves temperature uniformity.
  • Temperature Control System: An intelligent system is recommended for precise regulation, suppressing thermal shock and extending service life.
  • Atmosphere: Optimal in oxidizing atmospheres. For reducing, carburizing, or hydrogen-rich conditions, reduce operating temperature or implement protective measures. Contact us for specific application guidance.
