Geyserwise 2Kw 230V Stainless Steel PTC Geyser Element – 2000W AC Only

The GeyserWise 2000W PTC AC Element, crafted from stainless steel, represents a leap forward in immersion heater technology, offering enhanced safety and efficiency for electric geysers. Distinguished by its use of Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) chips instead of traditional resistance wire, this heating element introduces a safer, more reliable way to heat water in domestic and commercial settings, particularly within the South African market where electric geysers predominantly rely on resistance wire elements.

Revolutionary Heating Technology: Traditional resistance wire elements, which heat up when voltage is applied and typically operate internally above 500ºC, face challenges like scale buildup or operation in air due to water level drops, leading to rapid increases in temperature and potential damage. The GeyserWise 2000W PTC element sidesteps these issues by employing ceramic PTC chips, which self-regulate temperature to prevent overheating, drastically reducing the heat output as the ambient temperature increases, thus avoiding damage and extending the element’s lifespan.

Key Advantages:

• Inherent Safety: The PTC chips ensure the element never surpasses its intended surface temperature, eliminating the risk of overheating and related damage.
• Enhanced Durability: With no moving parts or failure-prone components like traditional thermostats, the PTC element boasts increased reliability and a longer service life.
• Energy Efficiency: The self-regulating nature of PTC technology means energy consumption is optimized, potentially offering significant savings.
• Simplified Design: The elimination of additional thermostatic controls reduces complexity and cost, further highlighting the element’s innovative appeal.

Technical Specifications:

• Resistance at 25˚C: 50-200Ω
• Material: Stainless Steel, for durability and corrosion resistance
• Rated Voltage: 230V, with a maximum voltage capacity of 265V
• Inrush Current: ≤20A, ensuring safe and efficient start-up
• Surface Temperature: Maintains a controlled operation at 240±10ºC
• Power: 2000W (±10%), providing robust heating performance
• Dimensions: Length of 300±2mm and a diameter of ø 35±0.5mm, accommodating a variety of geyser sizes

Ideal for replacing traditional geyser elements or for new installations, the GeyserWise 2000W PTC AC Element brings modern heating efficiency, unparalleled safety, and innovative design to water heating systems, marking a significant improvement over older heating technologies.
