Spiral electric heating elements consist of cylindrical spirals formed by one or two resistive wires of suitable alloy depending on the application.
Its main features include the inclusion of a nickel-chrome alloy wire heating element and a normalized tension of -230 V.
The usual applications are: industrial dryers, air heaters, stoves, etc.
Moreover, and according to the alloy wire they contain, we can distinguish three types of models:
