FAQ
How to prevent electrical arcing in the terminals of an H-type heater?
H-type (or single-terminal) heaters are common in space-limited applications, but as both poles are at the same end, the risk of arc formation is higher.
Thermal and Electrical Insulation: It is essential to use ceramic support blocks (usually alumina) that maintain a constant physical separation between the two terminals. Never allow the furnace insulation material (ceramic fiber) to directly touch the electrified zones, as at high temperatures the fiber can become slightly conductive.
Surface Cleaning: The buildup of metal powders, moisture, or carbon deposits on the heater head acts as a conductive bridge. Periodic cleaning of the terminals with dry compressed air should be performed.
Braid Tightening: A loose contact generates micro-arcs that carbonize the terminal. Use stainless steel clips with adequate tension to ensure the aluminum braid is in full contact with the surface of the cold zone.
