Applications | |||
Your choices are... | |||
Annealing / Heat Treating | Process annealing is used to treat work-hardened parts made from low-carbon steels (< 0.25% carbon). Annealing can be used to stress-relieve or fully soften a part. A full anneal allows the parts to be soft enough to undergo further cold working without fracturing. | ||
Curing / Tempering | Heaters are designed for curing or tempering applications. They can heat adhesive bonds to curing or setting specifications. | ||
Drying | Heaters are used to dry products or materials with in-process or batch operation. | ||
Melting | Heaters are used to transform materials from a solid to a liquid state for further processing (e.g., casting). | ||
OEM / Custom | Heaters are designed as OEM modules and are designed to be embedded or installed in another piece of equipment. | ||
Gases / Vapors | Products can be used to heat inert gases and vapors. | ||
Clean Water Heating | Products are used to heat clean or pure water, or substances that have a similarly low viscosity. | ||
Process Waters | Products are used to heat soap and detergent solutions, or demineralized or deionized water. | ||
High Purity Waters | Heaters are designated by the manufacturer as designed for high-purity applications. | ||
Lightweight Oils & Degreasing Solutions | Products are designed for use with heat transfer oils, synthetic heat transfer materials, degreasing solutions, etc. | ||
Heavy Weight Oils | Products are used heat heavy, viscous oils to increase flow or pumping velocity. | ||
Medium Weight Oils | Products are used to heat medium-weight oils such as gear oils, fuel oils, and some heat transfer oils. | ||
Mild Corrosive Solutions | Heaters are designed for use in corrosive solutions of less than 25% concentration. | ||
Severe Corrosive Solutions | Heaters are designed for use in corrosive solutions of up to 50% or more concentration. | ||
Caustic Solutions | Heaters are designed for use in caustic solutions. | ||
Liquid Paraffin | Heaters are designed for use with liquid paraffin or materials with a similar viscosity. | ||
Other | Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary applications. | ||

Fuel / Energy Source
Back to Top
Your choices are... | |||
Electric | Electricity is the primary power source. | ||
Diesel / Fuel Oil / Gasoline / Kerosene | The primary power source burns or generates power from fuel oil, diesel, gasoline, or kerosene. | ||
Hot Water / Steam | Circulating steam or hot water is the primary heat source. | ||
Natural Gas / Propane | Natural gas or propane is the primary power source. | ||
Solar | The primary power source captures and uses solar heat. | ||
Waste Oil | Waste oils are salvaged from internal combustion engines, hydraulics, lubricants, cooking processes, and other applications. | ||
Wood / Pellet | The primary power source burns wood, wood pellets, or other combustible solid products. | ||
Other | Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary fuel or energy sources. | ||

Maximum Temperature
Back to Top
Maximum Operating (Sheath) Temperature | Maximum operating (sheath) temperature is the highest temperature that the heater's sheath (or protective cover) may reach. This is not the maximum temperature a heated substance may reach. | ||
Search Logic: | All matching products will have a value greater than or equal to the specified value. | ||
Heating Capacity
Back to Top
Heating Capacity | Heating capacity is the wattage which the heater can deliver. | ||
Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
Power Requirement
Back to Top
Phase: | |||
Your choices are... | |||
Single Phase | Heaters use single-phase power. | ||
Three Phase | Heaters use three-phase power. | ||
Search Logic: | All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches. | ||
AC Voltage Required | Heaters require AC voltage. Most heaters use AC voltage instead of DC voltage. | ||
Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
Watt Density | The maximum watt density that the heater can deliver. Watt density is a good measure of how quickly the heater can transfer heat to a heated surface. To calculate watt density, suppliers divide the available wattage by the heated surface area. | ||
Search Logic: | User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria. | ||
