DESCRIPTION

1. 

Circulation heaters for liquid service are designed for operation 
only while completely full with liquids. Never allow the heating 
elements to be exposed while energized or failure will result.

CAUTION

CAUTION

 Use the heater only in liquids 

and at pressures for which it was designed 

(unless specifically designed for non-liquid 

applications). Normally copper sheath is 

recommended in water, steel or alloy sheath 

in oil, and the appropriate alloy sheath for 

heating chemical solutions. Check factory for 

recommendations.

2.  Circulation heaters for gas service are designed to operate 

under the design pressure and design temperature specified 
in the pressure vessel ratings. High limit sensing devices 
(thermocouples/RTD) provide means of control for the 
maximum allowable temperature to operate the heater 
below design conditions. Never operate the heaters beyond 
limit temperatures specified in the heaters drawings. Never 
operate the heater without a high temperature limits.

3.  Circulation heaters are welded pressure vessels with inlet and 

outlet connections to allow fluid/gas flow and heat transfer to 
a customer flud.

4.  Where gasket is required, user must ensure that gasket 

surface is clean and dry before installing heater.

5.  The terminals must be protected at all times from moisture 

or vapour. In explosive atmospheres, explosion resistant 
terminal housings must be used. In outdoor locations, 
moisture resistant housings are required. It is recommended 
to use a drip loop to prevent moisture from entering the 
terminal box via the wire or cable.

6.  Protect terminals of heating elements from drippings, 

condensation, fumes, spray or any other substance which 
could result in element contamination.

7.  When melting solids by direct immersion, a surface vent 

should be provided to allow gases to escape. Operate the 
heater on ½ voltage until melted material completely 
covers the heating elements. Heaters used for this purpose 
may require special design features. Check factory for 
recommendations.
