As an advanced heating element, proper maintenance can significantly extend the service life of 3D hot bent glass heating tubes and ensure their stable performance. Here are some maintenance suggestions:
Firstly, attention should be paid to the installation process. Ensure that the installation process strictly follows the instructions to avoid damage to the heating tube due to improper installation. The installation location should be chosen in a dry, well ventilated place, away from humid and corrosive environments. A humid environment may cause a decrease in the electrical insulation performance of the heating tube, while corrosive substances may cause damage to the glass tube body.
During use, pay attention to controlling voltage and current. Do not let the heating tube work for a long time beyond its rated voltage and current, as this will accelerate the aging of the heating tube and reduce its service life. At the same time, avoid frequently opening and closing the heating tube, as frequent temperature changes may cause thermal stress on the glass tube body, affecting its structural stability.
Regular cleaning is also an important part of maintenance. Gently wipe the surface of the heating tube with a clean soft cloth to remove dust and dirt. But be careful to avoid using sharp or rough objects to wipe, so as not to scratch the glass tube body. If there are difficult to clean stains such as oil stains on the surface of the heating tube, a mild cleaning agent can be used, but it is important to ensure that the cleaning agent does not damage the glass and heating elements.
Avoid external impact and vibration on the heating tube. Although 3D hot bent glass heating tubes have certain strength, external impact and vibration may cause the glass tube body to break or the internal heating element to be damaged. During transportation and installation, handle with care to avoid collisions.
When the heating tube is not in use, it should be stored properly. It is best to place it in a dry and clean place, and protect it with packaging materials to prevent dust and debris from entering. At the same time, it is important to avoid placing the heating tube together with other hard objects to prevent it from being crushed.
In addition, it is necessary to regularly inspect the heating tube. Check whether there are cracks, damages, etc. on the glass tube body, whether the electrical connections are firm, and whether there are any loose or poor contacts. If any problems are found, they should be repaired or replaced in a timely manner.
In short, proper maintenance of 3D hot bending glass heating pipes requires starting from multiple aspects such as installation, use, cleaning, storage, and inspection. Only by providing careful care for the heating tube can its service life be extended and more reliable heating services be provided for our production and life.
