FAQ
How does the on/off cycle affect the element's durability?
The on/off cycle is one of the factors that most reduces the service life of a Silicon Carbide (SiC) heater due to the stress caused by thermal expansion.
Expansion and Contraction: Each time the heater heats up and cools down, the SiC material expands and contracts. Although SiC has a low thermal expansion coefficient, repetitive cycles can generate structural microcracks that weaken the heater.
Technical Recommendation: To maximize durability, it is preferable to keep the furnace at a "standby" temperature rather than turning it off completely. If it must be turned off, a power controller (SCR) with a gradual heating ramp should be used to minimize thermal shock and extend the heating element's service life.
