Core Electrical & Thermal Data

Physical Dimensions & Construction

• Immersion Depth: 240mm

• Cold Zone: 40mm (Ensures heat is concentrated away from the fitting to prevent gasket damage)

• Element Diameter: 8mm

• Element Material: SUS316L (Low-carbon Marine Grade Stainless Steel)

• Fitting/Boss: G1¼" Brass

• Enclosure: Die-cast Aluminium Housing (IP65 Rated)

• Cable Entry: M20 x 1.5 Cable Gland (Pre-installed)

Typical Applications

• Water tanks and buffer vessels

• Commercial wash tanks

• Small process tanks

• Compact or shallow heating systems

• IBCs and containers (with suitable adapters)

Key Features

• High Corrosion Resistance: The 316L element provides superior resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, making it ideal for water heating and mild chemical solutions.

• Advanced Thermal Control: The internal thermostat allows for precise temperature regulation between 30-90°C, suitable for both process heating and domestic hot water.

• Durable Housing: Unlike plastic alternatives, the Aluminium housing offers superior impact resistance and heat dissipation for the internal wiring.

• Optimised Cold Zone: The 40mm cold zone protects the brass fitting and seals from overheating, significantly extending the service life of the unit.

Installation Notes

• Wiring: Must be installed by a qualified electrician using heat-resistant cabling through the provided M20 gland.

• Orientation: Designed for horizontal or vertical installation (ensure the element is fully submerged at all times).
