There are three types of igniters, which are Silicon Carbon ceramic igniter, SiN all ceramic igniter and SiN ceramic covered igniter.
According to the construction, silicon carbon ceramic hot surface igniter can be divided into the types of sheet shape and screw shape, which are produced by Norton and SIC. Due to the characteristics of silicon carbon, the hot surface igniters with the silicon carbon have the defects of loose construction, being fragiler, absorbing moist and high working current.
Si3N4 all ceramic hot surface igniter is the product with Le-Mark’s owned patent. With the characteristics of high strength and abrasion resistance of SiN, Le-Mark’s ceramic hot surface igniter is the product with the characteristics of highest strength, moist resistance, low working current, energy saving and faster start-up in all the ceramic igniters.
The main manufacturer of Si3N4 ceramic covered hot surface igniter is the Japanese company, Kyocera. The main product in the market of Kyocera is 80V igniter. |
