Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric heating tube testing, and in particular to an electric heating tube life testing device. Background Technology
[0002] An electric heating element is a device that converts electrical energy into heat energy by emitting infrared radiation. It typically consists of a coil made of tungsten or chromium-aluminum wire placed inside a tube, where it interacts with an inert gas, causing the tube to heat up. Electric heating elements have wide applications in electrical, medical equipment, and automotive parts industries. Their lifespan and reliability are crucial to product performance and safety. Electric heating element testing equipment can assess their lifespan under normal operating conditions and simulate various situations that may occur during long-term use, such as high temperature, high humidity, and vibration, to predict the lifespan of the heating element and provide corresponding improvement suggestions.

Therefore, providing an electric heating tube life testing device to realize the cold test method has become an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content
