Features
Simple Duct Transition Sections may
be used to adapt standard heater sizes to
various duct sizes to increase air velocities
for better heat transfer, lower sheath
temperature and longer element life.
Field Wiring Terminals—Heavy duty
diameter bolts of either brass (iron sheath
units) or Stainless Steel (chrome steel
sheath units) with necessary hardware
are provided for field wiring connections.
Terminals are located on the side for CAB
units and on the bottom for CABB units,
and should be on the outside of ducting.
Fins of aluminized steel are provided
to improve heat transfer to the air.
Elements are individually replaceable.
Terminal Cover Option is available
to prevent accidental contact with live
electrical terminals (PCN 269720),
one (1) required per circuit
MONEL Sheath and MONEL Fins are
available for humid conditions. Model
TDH heaters, using Fintube elements
are also available.
Construction
Rugged Finstrip Elements are
mounted in a sturdy steel frame with
narrow side of elements and fins facing
the air flow.
resistor wire is uniformly spaced over the
width and length of the Finstrip element,
then em bed ded in high-grade refractory
material which insulates the wire and
transfers heat rapidly. Refractory is then
compressed to rock hardness and
maximum density under tremendous
hydraulic pressure to improve heat transfer
from coil to sheath. Elements are oven
baked at high temperatures to semi-vitrify
and mature the refractory. Sheath material
3
⁄8"
is either rust-resisting iron or chrome steel.
Sturdy Steel Frame—14 gauge cold
rolled steel painted with high heat
resisting black enamel paint.
Internal Electrical Connections are
made using a combination of buss bars
and jumper straps consisting of either
Manganese-Nickel or MONEL.
Mounting
Always install heaters in duct work with
terminal box on bottom of heater. Type
CAB units should have field wiring
terminals facing upstream to provide
maximum cooling affect. Secure to duct
work using mounting holes on both
vertical sides of heater.

Maximum Work Temperatures—Type
CAB and CABB heaters can generally be
used at the following maximum
temperatures, provided the minimum air
