Electrical heating element with a thermostat for boilers and boiler accessories
Heating element heating cartridge 2.5–9 kW with insulation separation for buffer tank
Product overview
The electric heating element is a powerful heating cartridge with insulation, ideal for use in buffer tanks, drinking water storage tanks, and enamel-lined solar storage tanks. With a 1.5" external thread connection, it is easy to install and integrates seamlessly into existing systems.
Structure and functionality
The heating element is made of a corrosion-resistant tubular sheath material (Incoloy 825), ensuring maximum reliability even during continuous operation. The insulation reliably prevents galvanic corrosion in the storage tank.
A continuously adjustable thermostat allows temperature selection between 30 °C and 75 °C. The integrated safety temperature limiter (STB) automatically intervenes at 98 °C, thus protecting against overheating.
Areas of application
The heating element is universally applicable in everything from buffer tanks and drinking water storage tanks to enameled steel storage tanks in solar and heating systems. It can also be easily integrated as an emergency heater for photovoltaic systems.
Advantages at a glance
Thanks to the high-quality Incoloy 825 alloy, the heating cartridge offers outstanding corrosion resistance and a long service life. The insulation also ensures safe operation without electrochemical reactions in the storage tank.
With a continuously adjustable thermostat and a fixed safety temperature limiter, the device offers high flexibility and maximum protection against overheating.
Assembly instructions
Installation is via the 1½" male thread connection. Ensure a suitable installation length and storage diameter to ensure safe and effective heat transfer.
Before commissioning, you should check whether the safety temperature limiter is working correctly and that all electrical connections have been made correctly.
