Screw Plug Immersion Heater

Screw Plug Immersion Heater are mainly intended for heating fluids, static or in circulation, but also gases.

Widespread technology in the industrial sector, these heating elements are in direct contact with the fluid . They can be installed horizontally,  vertically, at the bottom of the tank…. Main applications: water, oil, fuel oil, etc.

Consisting of several armored resistors brazed on an ISO or GAS screw cap ,  screw-in immersion heaters can be equipped with a thermowell allowing the use of a thermostat.

Screw Plug Immersion Heater

Screw Plug Immersion Heater are used for heating fluids such as water, oil, fuel oil but also gases. Immersion heaters are typically mounted horizontally or vertically on stagnant fluid vessels or in circulating fluid heater bodies.

In addition to our range of immersion heaters in stock , we are able to manufacture custom made models according to your needs, your thermal and dimensional constraints (bottom of the tank, etc.).

For heating in demanding environments, we also design ATEX / IECEX immersion heaters.

Screw Plug Immersion Heater

Technical characteristics

Equipped with metric plugs , our immersion heaters available from stock are intended for heating water or oil depending on the model, for use up to 110°C . We also carry out custom manufacturing models , adapted to the fluid and the temperature of your application.

  • Heating elements in incoloy ( water heating) or stainless steel ( oil heating) depending on the application, sealed in resin and brazed on plug.
  • Hexagon screw cap with metric pitch ( M45x2 or M77x2 ) or gas ( 1″1/2 or 2″1/2 ), in brass, double thread. Plugs available in the same dimensions, in stainless steel, single thread.
  • Thermowell for inserting a thermostat or probe type regulation device (sensor supplied on request),
  • Connection by threaded terminals,
  • Immersion heaters supplied pre-wiredwith klingerite seal, strips for single-phase or three-phase coupling.

.

In addition to our standard Screw Plug Immersion Heater, we offer a range of accessories: polycarbonate or aluminum connection boxes , solder rings , integrated thermostats , etc.

.
