Armoured electrical resistors are specialised types of electrical resistors used for heating liquids and gases.
By using compressed magnesium oxide and stainless steel sheathing, a durable and versatile tubular element is created, suitable for a wide range of applications.
Available in candle, finned, or strip forms, armoured resistors are used for both domestic applications, such as boilers and heating systems, and in industrial settings.
Thanks to decades of experience in the electronics sector, Esaf is a specialist in the supply and sale of high-quality
armoured electrical resistors, ensuring maximum reliability. Discover the full catalogue of resistors and electrical components available for purchase.
Candle-type (also known as cartridge) electrical resistors are armoured tubular resistors used as heating elements within industrial processes. Depending on the application context and industry, different power ratings of candle-type armoured resistors will be used. Based on their diameter and the power they can handle, these resistors are classified into high, medium, or low power categories.
Armoured finned electrical resistors are used to generate controlled temperature air or gas flows, efficiently managing the temperature in specific environments.
Finned resistors are employed both in industrial settings, such as for furnaces or packaging machines, and for domestic use, such as in the heating of saunas or ventilation systems.
ELECTRICAL IMMERSION RESISTORS
We design and manufacture custom resistors that can adapt to any application, whether domestic or industrial. The armoured tubular resistors can be specific for immersion in liquids such as water, oils, and cleaning systems, and we also produce resistors for dry operation or forced air. In addition to the armoured resistor system, Esaf is capable of designing cooling coils, with either standard flanges or custom designs.
