Note that these element is 220 volts ratings and you can also 440 volts heater elements but you need to provide the line supply my mean to lines or two hot wires supply 440 volts.
The wiring connection for both single phase 120v and 240v are same i e.
Heating element the kanthal program of electric heating elements is the widest on the market.
Our heating elements outperform in all temperature ranges from element temperature 50 to 1850 c 120 3360 f and atmospheres.
