Industrial Heating Element Testing & Repairs Perth

Lectro Power Systems provides electrical testing and fault finding for heating elements used in ovens, tanks, sealers, process equipment, and industrial machinery.
Symptoms We Resolve

COMMON HEATING ELEMENT FAULTS

  • OPEN-CIRCUIT ELEMENT FAILURE

    A broken resistance element will stop producing heat completely and can usually be identified electrically.
  • INSULATION BREAKDOWN TO EARTH

    Deteriorating insulation can cause earth leakage, RCD operation, or other protection trips when the heater energises.
  • PARTIAL HEATER BANK FAILURE

    Multi-element systems may continue operating with reduced output, leading to unusually long heating times.
  • BURNT TERMINALS

    High current and poor connections can overheat element terminals and damage associated wiring.
  • FAILED CONTACTORS OR SSRs

    The element itself may be healthy while the switching device supplying it has failed.
  • INCORRECT TEMPERATURE FEEDBACK

    Thermocouple or controller faults can prevent healthy elements from being energised correctly.
The Lectro Advantage

WHY CHOOSE LECTRO POWER SYSTEMS?

  • HEATING CIRCUIT TESTING

    We assess the element together with its wiring, switching, protection, and control system.
  • INSULATION RESISTANCE TESTING

    Where appropriate, insulation condition can be checked to identify leakage or deterioration.
  • CONTROL SYSTEM SUPPORT

    Controllers, thermocouples, relays, and contactors can be diagnosed alongside the heaters.
