Certain heating applications are especially challenging. Mineral insulated heating cable has been specifically designed to offer large power output heating solutions in harsh environments. These sheathed heating cables can withstand high temperatures and pressures even in corrosive atmospheres.
Mineral insulated heating cables consist of one or two metal conductors, such as nickel or chromium, converting electrical energy into heat. The wires are insulated with high quality magnesium oxide and covered with a heat, corrosion and pressure resistant metal sheath material, such as Inconel 600, Alloy 825, or stainless steel
One of the advantages of sheathed heating cable is a constant power output, independent of temperature variations. Temperatures of up to 800 °C can be achieved in environments with an exposed temperature of up to 1000 °C.
Mineral insulated heating cable is a semi-finished product that can be used to make heat tracing cable, heating elements or micro heaters. Kamet also offers a range of these (customized) finished products.
Mineral insulated heating cables are designed and produced by Okazaki manufacturing company and ARi Industries, both companies work in close partnership with Kamet.
Mineral insulated heating cables are applied to heat up processes in various industries, such as the semiconductor industry, research facilities, aerospace, and for heat tracing applications. These industries are known for their extreme environments and MI heating cable can be designed to match each challenge. This is Kamet’s particular area of expertise: making our in-house knowledge and skills available to customers in order to come up with the heating product that perfectly matches the application.
