Metal-to-ceramic heating connectors are crucial to ensure a safe and reliable electrical connection for mineral insulated heating conductors. These ceramic power connectors are constructed to match the same extreme environments as the conductor (high temperatures and vacuums). Depending on the version, currents up to 30A are possible. Kamet’s ceramic power connectors are specifically designed for our top-class range of ARi heating elements.
Metal-to-ceramic heating connectors can withstand extreme environments such as high temperatures and vacuums (depending on the design, up to 500°C max). These accessories are designed specifically for our range of ARi mineral insulated conductors and, as such, have the same industrial applications. These include (among others) the following industries :
Our metal-to-ceramic heating connectors are a popular choice for vacuum applications. This is because of the reliable and safe design of the connectors, ensuring an excellent connection between the power cable (usually not in a vacuum) and the heating element (often in a vacuum).
The following tables provide a full overview of the specifications and parameters for our range of ceramic power connectors. A few notes in addition to these data tables:
