Lifeguard™Electric Element
High density nichrome wire electric
heating filament; best grade A, 80/20
nichrome wire made…for top
performance and long-life operation.
High-grade magnesium oxide
packing moves the heat
quickly to the element’s
surface, protecting the
nichrome wire filament and
boosting efficiency.
Steel screw-in head
provides solid construction
and ease of maintenance.
INCOLOY®840 stainless steel sheath,
resists water chemical corrosion and
burn-out even in air or sediment for
long element life, long life performance.
Low watt density design delivers
full watt-rated heating power to
a larger surface area, eliminating
high heat concentrations and
prolonging element life.
