Keräsäiliölämmittimet

Keräsäiliölämmittimet, also known as coil tank heaters or simply immersion heaters for tanks, are devices used to heat the contents of large storage tanks. These heaters typically consist of a heating element, often a resistive coil, enclosed within a protective sheath or tube. This sheath is usually made of corrosion-resistant material like stainless steel or Incoloy, designed to withstand the tank's contents and operating temperatures.

The heating element is designed to be immersed directly into the liquid or substance being heated within the tank. They are often installed through a flange or threaded fitting in the tank wall, allowing for easy insertion and removal for maintenance. The electrical current passed through the resistive element generates heat, which is then transferred to the surrounding fluid.

Keräsäiliölämmittimet are employed across various industrial applications. They are commonly used in the petrochemical industry to maintain the temperature of oils, fuels, and chemicals, preventing solidification or viscosity issues. In the food and beverage sector, they can be used for heating water, syrups, or other ingredients. They also find use in water treatment facilities and for general industrial process heating where bulk liquid temperature control is necessary.

The design of these heaters can vary depending on the tank size, the properties of the substance being heated, and the desired temperature. Factors such as watt density, sheath material, and overall dimensions are critical for efficient and safe operation. Thermostatic controls are often integrated to regulate the temperature and prevent overheating.
