Description
Chromalox horizontal electric vaporizers are designed for use with Dowtherm, Therminol, and other organic fluids to transfer heat at high temperatures and low pressures. They are pre-engineered, pre-wired, and pre-piped packages designed for flexible, dependable, and efficient operation. All units are ASME-certified to 150 psi at 750°F with 300 lb construction throughout. Seal-welded element design eliminates leaks and improves serviceability on the heater. Units available with over-pressure, process, remote, or skid mounted controls. Optional NEMA weather- and explosion-resistant enclosures are also available.
Applications
Jacketed Vessels and Tanks — containing waxes, paraffin, exotic chemicals including those having exothermic reactions, hot melt adhesives, resins, varnishes, paints, dyestuffs, molasses, vegetable oils and many other chemical or petrochemical products. Heated Rolls — for coating paper and paper products, spot carbonizing, vinyl bonding, bonding with hot melt adhesives, calendering and laminating. Heat Exchangers — for corrosive and noncorrosive fluids.
Platens, Dies and Molds — for laminating wood and plastics, forming of carbon products, epoxy materials and Fiberglas®, plastics extrusion, injection molding, molding rubber and plastic materials: vinyl bonding and bonding with hot melt adhesives. Pipeline Tracing — of viscous materials such as paints, fuel oils, asphalt and many other chemical and petrochemical products for antifreeze protection and/or maintaining pumping temperatures. Industrial Systems — such as snow melting, comfort heating and hot water supply and as standby equipment for industrial and commercial applications in case the supply of other fuels is curtailed.
