The
Mighty Watt is an elite category of high density cartridge heaters. No
other swaged cartridge heater is compacted to the extent of the Mighty
Watt, producing excellent heat transfer capability and the dielectric
and physical strength necessary for long life and outstanding
performance. The Mighty Watt is designed for applications where high
operating temperatures are required, or where heaters are subjected to
vibration. Because the construction allows maximum heat transfer and
high temperatures, it is possible to use fewer heaters at higher watt
densities to reduce space requirements. The Mighty Watt is available
from 1/8" to 1-1/4" diameters in just about any conceivable
increment. With designed-in quality and reliability, the Mighty Watt is
the ideal heat source for any process.
MIGHTY WATT CARTRIDGE HEATERS
The "MW" series is the foundation of
all the variations shown on the following pages. A heavy duty
double crimp connects lead wires to solid nickel pins.
Connections are insulated with sleeving. Maximum temperature at
the lead area is 400
F/200
C. Standard lead length is 12". Specify additional length. The
"MW" is the standard design for all diameters (except 1/8").

The Mighty Watt Plus allows one of nine lead modifications to be added to any of over 700 Mighty Watt
Cartridge heater sizes and ratings available from stock. This creates many
thousands of possible combinations-shipped within 5 days! Rather than waiting
through normal lead times or carrying a huge inventory of spare parts, the exact item
necessary can be ordered and on the job with minimal down
time...essential for meeting today's
manufacturing requirements. The Mighty Watt Plus modification can be added to
any stock item in 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8" or 3/4"
diameter with desired lead length. All Mighty Watt Plus items use high
temperature lead wire rated to 850F (450C).
