Teny for heating: where appliances are used and how to use

Stability of heating, minimal dependence on a centralized supply and not ruinous payment - that’s what every homeowner dreams of. Heat for small expenses is quite realistic if using heating elements for heating radiators that heat the coolant inside the boiler.

How it works

Regardless of what material you use the radiator, it is possible to heat the water with this wonderful device.

1. Modern heaters for heating radiators successfully work in aluminum, cast iron and steel heating devices.
2. The principle of operation of these tubular electric heaters is familiar to everyone in the domestic boiler. Inside the tube is hidden spiral heating under the action of current.
3. The housing of the device is made of stainless steel, then it is chrome-plated by electroplating.
4. Inside the tube is insulated from the helix with a layer of magnesium oxide, making the heating element safe for humans.
5. Enhances safety guard and thermostat.

Note! Two temperature sensors protect the device from overheating. Accurate temperature control is provided by a capillary thermostat.

Types of devices

1. For water heating. The device heats the working environment in the water radiator. These electrical devices assemble a home-made boiler, from which heat is then transferred throughout the system. However, this type is not intended to be installed directly into a heat generator. The device is made of carbon steel or titanium, the fitting serves as mounting hardware.
2. Electric analog with thermostat. This tenovoy heating successfully works in electrical appliances that heat the water. It is made in the form of a tube with a helix of a nickel-chrome alloy. The insulator is magnesium oxide. The maximum temperature created by the device reaches +80 ?.
3. Devices for electric boilers. They are included with the heating device and are already mounted in it. Their task is to maintain a certain level of temperature between protoplivanie.

Solid fuel boilers with heating elements of this particular model are also being produced. The principle of operation is simple and effective - as soon as the main fuel runs out, the device automatically switches to power supply.

1. For household needs, Ariston heating elements are successfully used, which function well in water boilers.. For the house or the garage are offered two models - straight (for vertical boilers) and curved (for horizontal). Power up to 4 kW allows you to heat water up to +80 ?, and the thermostat regulates the temperature.

1. Battery Devices (Garage Type). Usually the choice is limited to three varieties - cartridge, air and water. Cartridge type is considered to be the most successful option.

Note! For your safety, the manual strongly recommends strict compliance with the rules when installing the device in garages. Automatic shutdown and thermostat functions are required.

Heating boilers on the basis of heating elements

It is extremely rare to find boilers designed exclusively for solid fuels. But the combined models are offered in a wide range (see also the article Bosch solid fuel boilers and their features).

Among them - a solid fuel boiler with heating elements, designed for heating both household and industrial premises. Moreover, the domestic product today is not inferior to foreign. Especially since it is designed for our harsh winters.

Positive qualities of heating elements

1. Extreme ease of installation. Any owner will be able to install the device with his own hands, guided by the attached instructions.
2. It is not necessary to coordinate installation and operation with various authorities. Permission to use a certified device is not necessary.
3. Modern products are extremely economical. All consumed energy will go into action.
4. The compact dimensions of the element add convenience.
5. The double protection method (nickel plating and chrome plating) greatly extends the life of your purchase.
6. Capillary thermostat allows you to adjust the temperature with a high degree of accuracy.
7. The pulse principle of the heater will save a lot of electricity.
8. Sophisticated design and complete safety at work.
9. Attached additional features improve the quality of work.
10. Reasonable price and a large selection of models.

Buy the right fixture.

In order not to get lost in the store among the huge range of heaters offered, ask the seller to give you a few minutes. Describe to him the type of your boiler or radiator, under which he will correctly select the element.

You should know the following.

1. The diameter, length and shape of the tube of the boiler or radiator.
2. The length of the cap of the insulator, as well as the total length.
3. Type of connection.
4. View mounts.
5. Power of the unit.

Calculation of heater power

Before going to the construction market does not hurt to prepare. That is, find out the required power of the heating element. Using the formula below, it is easy to calculate which device is needed for a certain volume of water:

P = 0.0011 • m • (tK – tH): T.

In it, the symbols mean:

• R - product power in kW;
• m is the mass in kilograms of heated water;
• tK is the temperature of the coolant after heating;
• tH is its temperature before heating;
• T - time of heating water.

Note! Many models of heaters are equipped with useful accessories. For example, the built-in "turbo" function will accelerate the heating of water to the maximum in the shortest possible time. And the "anti-freezing" mode will keep the minimum (+10?) Temperature, not allowing the liquid to freeze.

Conclusion

The task of any homeowner is to save energy. A skillfully selected tandem of devices will help to warm the room at a high quality with minimal expenses (see also the article Electric heating radiators - types and features).
