Bridge Element

The Bridge Element is made up of two 7-in.,
1800 watt elements plus an 800 watt element
between the two 7-in. elements. The elements
consist of a ribbon-type resistance wire attached
to support insulation with molded ceramic walls.
The digital control on the electronic models (or
the infinite heat switches on the electric models)
regulates the 7-in. units independently of each
other, or in combination when the bridge operat-
ing mode (or switch) is selected. The bridge and
the left front element are regulated by the same
controls.
