A heater refers to a device used for heating. There are many kinds of heaters. The most common electric heater is a heating device that uses electricity as energy for heating. It can also be called electric heating. In recent years, there has been a gradual rise in using electricity to heat water. Below we will introduce to you the classifications of heaters.

1. Electric heater

Also called oil-filled electric heater. This kind of electric heater is filled with a new type of thermal oil. When the power is turned on, the thermal oil around the electric heating pipe is heated, and then the heat is dissipated along the heat pipe or fins. When the oil temperature reaches 85°C, its temperature control element will automatically cut off power. The thermal oil of this kind of electric heater does not need to be replaced and has a long service life. The price is generally between 400 and 500 yuan. It is suitable for use in living rooms, bedrooms, corridors and families with the elderly and children. It has the advantages of safety, hygiene, dust-free and odorless. The disadvantages are slow heat dissipation and high power consumption. There are 7, 9, 10, 12 Youting heat sinks, etc. The power can be adjusted by selecting the number of heat sinks. The power used is about 1200 watts.

2. PTC machine

PTC is the abbreviation of a ceramic heating element. It uses a fan to encourage air to flow through the PTC electric heating element to force convection, which is the main heat exchange method. It is equipped with a temperature limiter inside, which can cut off the power automatically when the air outlet is blocked by the fan. Some are also equipped with a tipping switch, which can cut off the power supply when the heater tips over. Its output power is between 800 and 1200 watts, and the temperature can be adjusted at will. The air supply is gentle during operation, and the temperature rises quickly. It has an automatic constant temperature function. PTC components are generally waterproof, so they are suitable for use in bathrooms.

Priced between 300 and 500 yuan, it is an ideal portable home electric heater.
3. Convection heater

This kind of electric heater cover has an air outlet on the top and an air inlet on the bottom. After power is turned on, the air around the electric heating pipe is heated and rises, flowing out from the air outlet, while the surrounding cold air enters through the air inlet for supplementation. This repeated cycle increases the indoor temperature. When the inlet and outlet are blocked or the ambient temperature is too high,

The temperature control element will automatically cut off the power supply to the electric heating tube. This kind of electric heater uses about 800 watts of power, and the power can also be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of electric heating tubes connected. This electric heater has high safety performance and quiet operation. The disadvantage is that it heats up slowly.
4. Electric heating film heater

Use fully transparent high-temperature electric heating film as the heating material.

It is at the world's advanced level in terms of technology. Adopting a hot air duct structure, the heat transfer method is enhanced convection, and the warm-up speed is fast. The outlet air temperature can reach over 100°C within 3 minutes, but it will cool down quickly after a power outage. Since the electric heating film does not oxidize itself when heated, its service life can be 100,000 hours. It also has the characteristics of small size and beautiful appearance. It is a replacement product of the electric heater family. Siphon heat pipe heater is a new type of electric heater that uses "two-phase closed thermosiphon" as the heat source, which has fast heating and high thermal efficiency. It does not emit light, has no open flame when working, and is not afraid of water spray and water vapor corrosion. It is suitable for use in ordinary rooms and bathrooms and sells for about 400 yuan.
