Drum Handling : Induction Heater

Melts Solids - Heats Liquids - Totally Safe

Designed to heat 205 litre drums or smaller steel vessels. Thermosafe is an alternative to multi-drum ovens and the solution to a host of process heating problems, even in hazardous areas.

Thermosafe is a single induction coil, wholly encapsulated in a cylinder made from a glass reinforced resin specifically developed for chemical plant. The cylinder is simply placed over the drum. Contact is not required.

The coil is connected to a single phase AC mains supply and generates heat directly and uniformly in the drum wall. Energy transfer is by alternating magnetic field. As there are no hot elements, the heater remains substantially cooler than the drum being heated.

• Maintenance Free GRP Construction, no heating elements or moving parts.
• Lightweight - 50 Kgs, can easily be lowered over drum. Lifting / handling equipment can be fixed to flanges.
• Typical heating times: 15 ^oC per hour for viscous organic liquid.
• Protection to IP65.
• Hazardous areas - suitable for use in zones 1 & 2. (EE x e II 170 ^oC -T3-)
• Can be stacked for tall vessels or cylinders.
• Minimal retained heat in drum heater enables close temperature control with on/off devices (optional control panels available)
