High Grade Suction Heater

Suction or Outflow Heaters are ideal for storage tanks where they are used to draw viscous liquids / oils at a pre requisite temperature. For large Tanks these heaters are installed horizontally, these can also be used to maintain the temperature of the tank by circulating the heated oil back to the tank. These heaters have the capacity of Instant Heating within minutes from a Cold Start. These are custom built to suit application requirements. Available capacities of these heaters are from 3 KW to 200 KW. Suction heaters are also known as outflow heaters.
Suction Heater are specifically designed to heat only that amount of material that is to be pumped from a large storage tank. The outlet nozzle is attached to the pump suction. The heater heats the material inside the heater body which is then drawn through the heater into the suction side of the pump.

Application Outflow / Suction Heaters
Used in tanks from which viscous fluids are to be pumped.
HFO / FO
Asphalt
Molasses.
Tar
Other high viscosity Materials.

Features:
Designed to heat viscous fluid as it flows through the heater to bring it to pumpable temperature
Used in large storage tanks to provide for quick flow through heating of viscous materials
Preferable Watt density offered 0.75 to 1.5 w/cm or 4.8 to 9.6 w/in
Two thermostats one for Safety and another for Control
RTD available on request.
Replaceable heating element type to be able to replace when required without emptying the contents of the tank.
