Nichrome Heating (Hot) Wire Mesh Advantages and Applications
Nichrome heating woven mesh characteristics
Heating resistance: High service temperature. The woven mesh constructed from Nichrome offers service temperature up to 2000oF in the usual conditions. The temperature differences during the process are normally risky for the standard materials, but Nichrome firmly withstands the fluctuated temperature conditions, proving its suitability.
Corrosion Resistance: The woven mesh made of Nichrome is resistant to oxidizing, reducing and carburizing environments. It is suitable for use in any applications.
Abrasion Resistance: Extreme abrasion resistance offered by Nichrome woven mesh is particularly significant when compared to synthetic fibers.
Swapping: Woven mesh is easy to design to change for the fabric bags.
Mechanical strength: Good strength and durable.
Thermal shock resistance: Hot gas conditions occurring in the filtration process threat the material performance. Nichrome wire meshes withstand without causing change in their shapes, stability or risk to breaking or cracking.
Uniform permeability and openings: Metal mesh media have uniform openings and shapes. It features same pressure drop and permeability at all positions.
Surface filtration: The surface filter mesh serves in dual modes- with filter cake and as a practical filter. In both conditions, the practical surface filtration features of the mesh permit quick cleaning of cake while avoiding penetration of particulate deeply in the media matrix.
Cleaning, recycling and replacement: Our Nichrome heating mesh is a thin media that can be restored during the cleaning pulses and by cleaning of the full filter surface. It is completely recyclable after its significant life and is easily replaceable on the filter element.
Mechanical Integrity: Media particles do not fall into the process that is conducted with wire mesh. It is unfeasible to develop a dropping effect with mesh. So our mesh can tolerate large delta pressure without breaking.
Mild Pressure drop: excellent permeability of technical mesh develops clean pressure drop throughout the media and hence the across the complete filtration system. Suitable porosity structure is a feature of sintered heating nichrome wire mesh that provides outstanding permeability so as mild pressure change.
Firmness: Nichrome mesh has firm and rigid structure. It can handle diverse complicated issues while the filtration procedure without cracking, fracturing or failing.
Electrostatic characteristics: Nichrome is a conductive metal hence it does not keep an electrostatic charge. Electric shocks do not affect the mesh structure. As Nichrome is an alloy, it can tolerate sparks and is less prone to catch fire.
Forming: Nichrome woven wire mesh is easily formable into diverse shapes and sizes by traditional fabrication methods. They are shaped to fit in system configuration.
Heating Mesh Applications
1. Floor Heating: Water is heated by boiler or water heater and then distributed to versatile tubings configured beneath the floor in a hydronic unit. The energy is absorbed by the floor which then releases heat that keeps the room environment warm.
An electric equipment works in the similar manner. Although rather tubes the electric heating elements are configured to heat the floor. The electric equipments are easier to use and are economical than the hydronic systems. Therefore they are more commonly used to heat the complete house or a specific place such as kitchen or bathroom.
The cozy experience of electric radiant floor heat is undoubtedly a must to do experience. Walking barefoot on the warm floor is similar to walk across a beach. The hot radiation from the floor to head is not only comfort giving, it is also energy efficient. Full energy supplied with electric underfloor heating is used to heat the floor. There is no wastage of energy rising to the roof as occurs with convection heating equipments. Additionally all rooms can be heat controlled on the base of different time and temperature needs.
Heat radiation from floor is equivalent to Sun warmness, so there are no cool drafts flying dust, dirt and allergens across the place. Heated floors produce a calm, peaceful and cozy environment that boost your day.
Our manufacturing facility is fully devoted to produce the excellent quality, economical floor heating mesh solutions. They can be installed at any time to create healthy, soothing and warm environment
While using the heating mesh the recommended power density per unit area must be below 15 watt per ft2.
Nichrome heating mesh can be cut while maintaining its heating characteristics that make it easily fit on the available area. With this attribute, the heating mesh is also significantly installed in the bathroom/washroom. It can also be configured under the different types of floors such as made from hardwood, carpet or tiles.
Heanjia Super-Metals delivers heating mesh with this supreme characteristic that make it exclusive from the traditional materials.
Variety of electrical components like thermostats, temperature sensors, humidifiers and dynamic sensors can also be utilized during the installation of the heating mesh that make it more functional and advanced system offering the spacious usable area.
2.Building and construction: The main feature of heating mesh is its coarseness. It is an economical option for heating bridge, runways, walkways and parking areas that are constructed of concrete. It enables to dry the concrete and avoid accumulation of snow at a nominal use of current and time length. These are now widely demanded by contractors, hotel constructors, shopping malls and other major buyers and executors of heating mesh applications.
Instead of installation of traditional hydronic heating units, heating mesh configurations are preferred. The mesh structures offer reliable competitive advantages rather the standard heating systems. They can be used with mats coated with insulated painted to avoid electrical connections.
While application of heating mesh beneath the concretes, temperature level must be below 176oF. Higher temperature level can cause to crack the concrete. The mesh temperature is directly proportional to the applied voltage on the electrode terminals.
Wall heating: Domestic and office space heating can be performed by heating the dry wall. The mesh installation for this application is similar to floor installation. The heat effect produced by the heated walls is uniformly distributed among the structure. Practically dry wall’s heating is a main requirement for builders and architectures.
Textiles: Because of extensive flexibility of heating mesh, it retains its performance even after thousands of bends that make it fit for use in the textile industry. It can be used to warm up blankets, seats etc. Our heating mesh can be operated by AC or DC supply.
Industry: The industrial heating mesh is produced following the customer’s requirements that need high mesh surface temperature about 350oF and a power density of 10 W/h2.
Aviation: Our heating mesh offers several advantages for the aviation sector such as:
- Enhance airport safety measures
- High economical benefit
- Operation friendly at airport and airlines
- Decrease the use of harmful chemicals
- Increase runway life
Hot Gas filtration
Hot gas filtration through woven nichrome mesh is a proven technique. The woven mesh media is specifically fit for hot gas applications where it needs to act as an active filtration layer. Heanjia Super-Metals believe that our Nichrome mesh is effective and efficient for providing necessary particulate elimination.
Mesh firmness, controllability of the weave features and the metallurgical properties have a significant role in offering the excellent outcomes. Additionally the filter media can be used frequently, recycling the eliminated filter media.
Our woven mesh is widely used for hot gas filtration applications. Becoming the leading technical weavers, we offer the assured highest quality and application oriented heating mesh filter media that is woven into diverse styles ranging from Plain square weave to reverse Dutch weaves.
We offer a complete series of woven mesh filter media in the standard and custom sizes. Our capabilities include cut to length, slitting, punching and fabricating the woven mesh filters. With our advanced welding and fabricating systems, we can produce filtration elements in the various shapes such as cylindrical, circular etc.
