Two-shank Bent elements
When electrical connections cannot be done above the roof, bent elements are used. Sometimes the furnace is too tall to allow installation of elements suspended from the roof, this is due to the limitation regarding the maximum permitted heating zone length. So, in such scenarios it is necessary to install elements with bent terminals or heating zones. Most elements are bent in the cold end, but they can also be bent in the hot section. The cold end of the Molybdenum DiSilicide can be bent at different angles – 45˚ or 90˚. This allows the installation of several rows of such heating elements on a wall of the furnace and it is also possible to control the power at different levels inside the furnace. All heaters that silcarb manufacture are interchangeable with kanthal super 1900, i2r, i-squaredr and super kanthal 1800.
Bricks or fiber are used to support the terminals. This usually restricts the maximum furnace temperature to 1600°C (2910°F).
