Exothermic Generator
An exothermic generator is a type of equipment that generates heat by triggering a chemical reaction. These generators are used extensively in industrial processes that require high temperatures, such as metallurgical processing, welding, and brazing. The chemical reaction is initiated by combining two or more chemicals, usually aluminum and iron oxide, inside a combustion chamber.
Exothermic generators are highly configurable, with a range of options available to suit different process requirements. They can be designed to operate with a variety of heat sources, including propane, natural gas, and diesel. The capacity of an exothermic generator can be customised according to the specific needs of the application.
Function
The chamber is a climatic chamber specifically designed to perform carbonation tests on concrete samples.
Configuration
The generator typically consists of a combustion chamber, a catalyst bed, and a heat exchanger.
Features
Endothermic generators have automated shutdown mechanisms and pressure relief valves. Control systems for gas composition and flow rate can be added.
Temperature Range
The temperature range for endothermic gas can vary depending on the specific application.
Heating Rate
The heating rate for endothermic gas can vary depending on the specific application.
Capacity
The capacity is available in various sizes, capacities or as per the requirement.
Heat Source
The heating sources are electric heating elements, gas-fired burners, or radiant tubes as the heat source.
Power Requirement
The power requirements for the furnace depend on the required technical parameters.
Atmosphere
The generator produces an endothermic gas atmosphere that is suitable for carburizing and other heat treatment processes.
