Electric ceramic core elements are designed to heat liquids indirectly through a thermowell or long metal parts such as plates, moulds, etc. They are made up of nickel-chromium wire heaters wound into coils and mounted in electrical insulating elements made of soapstone, called cores. Ceramic core. Measurement of high temperatures, greater than 1000 C, using ceramic based thermocouples is a well established process. Sometimes, the metal is chosen for support, sometimes for interest, and frequently a combination of both. But a good match between the clay and the metal. A ceramic insulated wire has a conductor core of copper or copper alloy, a stainless steel layer around the conductor core and a chromium oxide film (2A) around the stainless steel layer.
