Evaporation elements

Evaporation elements are used to increase the evaporation rate of outflow water from for instance cooling and freezing units.

The evaporation elements consist of a Backer tubular heating element in stainless steel furnished with a tight connection mostly by a vulcanization method.

The evaporation elements can have connection at one or both ends of the element. The element is bent for adaptation to the specific application.

Insertion elements

Insertion elements are used to prevent ice formation and to thaw ice in cooling and freezing units, air-conditioning plants, compressors and out-door installations.

Insertion elements consist of a Backer tubular heating element in stainless steel furnished with a tight connection mostly by a vulcanizing method.

The insertion element can have electrical connection at one or both ends of the element. Two or more elements can be electrical connected with cables and have tight connections as above.
