Industrial heaters are vital components of today's modern manufacturing and process industries. They provide accurate, reliable, and repeatable heat to satisfy the requirements of a broad range in its application. Beyond supplying heat, their importance lies in improving process efficiency and quality, as well as operational safety, in manufacturing, energy, chemical, food processing, and other industries.
What is an Industrial Heater?
An industrial heater is a piece of equipment designed to generate and deliver heat, efficiently, to a multitude of industrial applications. Industrial heaters are built to withstand extreme conditions (temperature, load, and environment). These heaters can come in multiple orientations, (electric heaters, immersion heaters, cartridge heaters, infrared heaters, etc.); they all meet specific operational requirements while ensuring reproducibility and durability.
Industrials Heaters Applications
1. Manufacturing and Processing
Industrial heaters maintain controlled temperatures to mold, cure, or form materials when manipulating plastics, metals, and composites.
2. Food and Beverage Industry
Used in pasteurization, drying, and controlled heating can ensure safety and quality.
3. Chemical and Pharmaceutical manufacturers
Utilizing heating for ensuring correct temperature for a chemical reaction, improving yield, stability and quality compliance.
4. Power Generation
Heater Applications are used with pre-heating fuels, lubricants and feedwater, for optimal performance and efficiency.
5. Oil and Gas Operations
Using heating to keep a liquid from freezing, reduce viscosity and to ensure safe and efficient transport within pipelines.
Major Advantages of Industrial Heaters
Accuracy in Temperature Control: Consistent variables keep product quality consistent and process accuracies consistent.
