Product Overview

Chromalox

This range of flanged immersion heaters, manufactured by Chromalox, are suitable for oil heating applications within ATEX certified hazardous areas. The term oil, in this case, covers a variety of viscous fluids which require a particular watt density in order to avoid damage.

Flanged immersion heaters for oil offer a watts density between 1.2 and 3.9 W/cm² and feature sheathed removable heating elements, but “monotubular” type, set in pockets, to allow the sheath to be removed without emptying the tank. This is particularly useful for large tanks or processes where removing the complete immersion heater would mean the oil would need to be transferred to another tank, leading to unnecessary downtime.

Standard products in this range have PN16 or 150 Ibs ANSI flange, but can be supplied on request, with every standard flanges up to 2500 Ibs.
