GENERAL

WARNING: This heater is not intended for use in

hazardous atmospheres where flammable vapors,

gases, liquids, or other combustible atmospheres

are present as defined in the National Electrical

Code. Failure to comply can result in explosion or

fire.

1. Heater Construction Characteristics —

A. One-piece stainless steel clamping band.

B. Two (2) rust-resisting chrome steel sheath strip heater ele-

ments.

C. Heavy construction of clamp and quick-connect allen head

bolt allow firm grip on heaters and tight heater fit to pipe

or barrel configuration.

2. WARNING: Hazard of heater failure. Pipe or barrel

surface temperature not to exceed 800˚F.

3. Heater bands may be used individually or in multiples spaced

1/4” apart.

4.WARNING: Users should install adequate controls

and safety devices with their electric heating

equipment. Where consequences of failure may be

severe, back-up controls are essential. Although

the safety of the installation is the responsibility of

the user, Chromalox will be glad to make equip-

ment recommendations.

INSTALLATION

WARNING: Hazard of Electric Shock. Disconnect all

power before installing heater.

1. Position slots in clamping band over terminal posts on heating

elements. Note: Terminal hardware must be removed to allow

clamping band slots to fit over terminal posts (Figure 1).

2. When heater band is correctly placed in the desired location,

compress ends of band together and insert bolt through non-

threaded trunnion socket and then into opposite threaded sock-

et. Hand tighten (Figure 2).

3. Turn Allen head bolt with 7/32” Allen wrench to draw heater

band tight on cylinder. Ensure that there is good contact

between heating element and cylinder and that there is electri-

cal clearance between the heater terminals and the clamping

band (Figure 1).

4. DANGER: Hazard of Fire. Since these heaters are capa-

ble of developing high temperatures, extreme care should be

taken to:

A. Avoid installing heaters in an atmosphere containing com-

bustible gases and vapor.

B. Avoid contact between heater and combustible material.

C. Keep combustible materials far enough away to be free of

effects of high temperature.

Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3

WIRING

WARNING: Hazard of Electric Shock. Any installation

involving electric heaters must be effectively ground-

ed in accordance with the National Electical Code to

eliminate shock hazard.

1. Rough-in Wiring — Wiring to heater should be to the volt-

age specified on heater band and in accordance with local and

National Electrical codes by a qualified person. As a guide in

determining line wire sizes see Amperes in Specifications

Table A on page 1. WARNING: Use copper conduc-

tors only.

2. Assemble terminal hardware and wiring in the order shown in

Figure 5.

3. Protection with proper size fuses and breakers is important to

minimize hazards.

WARNING: Do not exceed 25 inch pounds of torque

when tightening the hex nuts on the heater termi-

nals. Excessive torque will result in stripping the

terminals from the refractory of the heating ele-

ment.

4. For rated output for heater band, connect heating elements in

parallel. 240V elements to be run on 480V should be connect-

ed in series. When element wattages are not equal, heaters

must not be connected in series.

TESTING

DANGER: Hazard of Electric Shock or Burns. Avoid

contact of hot surfaces and live electrical terminals

during this adjustment.

1. Energize the heater and check for hot spots after the heater has

reached operating temperature. These can be identified as

bright red areas on the heating element or dark brown areas on

the clamping band. If hot spots are encountered, place a wood-

en block on the affected area and tap lightly with a hammer to

bring the heater in contact with the pipe or barrel surface.

2. It’s good practice to check the tightness of the clamping

band after a few hours at operation temperature. Chromalox

HTRC (Heat Trans-fer and Release Coating) is also available

for high temperature applications. Figure 4

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Hazard of Severe Shock. Disconnect all

power to heater before servicing or replacing

heaters.

1. For longer heater life, maintain good contact between heater

and work cylinder by periodically checking clamping band

tightness.

2. Make certain that both terminals and band are free from con-

tact with oil, liquids or other foreign matter. Such contaminants

can cause heater failures.

3. Check for loose terminal connections and tighten if necessary.
