UltraCoil™

UltraCoils™ may be purchased in two configurations:

UltraCoil™ Free Radiator Configuration (figure 1)
UltraCoil™ Enclosed Refractory Configuration (figure 2)

Standard Ultra Coil (figure 1)

Ultra Coil with Ceramic Shroud/Sleeve (figure 2)

• If used in an enclosed refractory configuration (see figures below) the temperature of the enclosure which can be achieved has to be calculated carefully and depends in the type of enclosure, the thickness of the enclosure and the power available from the coil. Please contact MHI for this calculation for your specific application.


• At the temperature of use, after a steady state condition has been reached, the free radiator configuration will draw more current than the refractory encased configuration. See example below.


• MHI can supply the ceramic enclosure, caps for the enclosure and the complete electronics required. Please contact MHI for a detailed quote or for Robust Radiator.


• Most important: Do not exceed 96A on coil in the free radiation configuration (figure 1)


• Do not exceed 1700°C in chambers of the enclosed refractory configuration (figure 2)

• Not for use below 800°C coil temperature.


• Do not exceed 1850°C on coil. If higher coil temperatures are required, please contact MHI. MHI coils are designed for minimal creep, however specially with temperatures close to the maximum operation temperature, creep is a factor to consider.  Often this depends on your application.  MHI can provide some guidelines based on experience but may not be in a position to determine the extent of creep in your application.

Testimonials

Some Of Our Many Satisified Customers Using our Heating Elements

Ron P., Cleveland
"Your elements have lasted at least 3X of the original mfg."

C. K. , OH
"I’ve been using your elements for a long time and I have no complaints everything is working well."

Researcher, Major US University
"...used at 1450°C... MHI MP1800 elements... ran over 2000 cycles... best ever seen by a long shot."

M.G., PA
" I wanted to try your silicon carbide elements because I have been very happy with the performance of your molybdenum disilicide heating elements.  Yep — I've been using them for a few years now."

Researcher at another Major University
"Now using in 7th year." 2006
Note from MHI --- We have been aware for some time that our elements are the best in the world, based on customer feedback. However even we were surprised by the life some users are getting from them. Users should recognize that the life depends on maximum temperature of use and other factors. MHI elements reach 1900°C... are we your supplier? (also see our articles in Technical Articles on how to choose the best element for maximum productivity).

Leo M, Pennsylvania
"We are very happy with the heating elements, the MP1800™ last for us. MHI has supported us completely with very good service."

"I would like to thank Kevin and MHI for recommending the use ... (Petrox™) elements. These new elements have been very successful in our process. We could not perform our Preventative Maintenance on our ovens without the use of these elements. When we would check our connections we would break the ends of our elements due to the fact that they would adhere to the elements that are connected to braided straps. It's been a great help. Thanks again, Leo."
