The need to heat a tank applies to nearly all industries, which is why it is one of the most prevalent industrial heating applications.

The temperature alarm shows the tank temperature via a digital display.

Prospective users of steam injection heating equipment often ask how to select an appropriate inline heater or tank jet sparger for an application. The answer to that question will vary depending on the type of fluid and the process heating requirements for the application.

There is a need for hot water in virtually all food, chemical and industrial process plants. From clean in place (CIP) hot water and sanitizing to paper mill whitewater heating applications, hot water plays a critical role in process sanitation and performance. 

Heat is required in applications to prevent media freezing or to provide viscosity control in fluids like oil. Heat also can be used to prevent condensation on an electrical control box or a camera lens mounted outdoors.

Lo-Density heaters provide environmental benefits that can help asphalt producers achieve sustainability goals, including NAPA’s Diamond Achievement Commendation and its new Diamond Achievement Sustainable Commendation, says the manufacturer.

Lo-Density unitized storage tank heaters can be installed into above-ground tanks or vats.

Processing tanks, holding tanks and storage tanks are used throughout the processing industries. Whether containing water, chemicals, oil, asphalt or other fluids, there is often the need to heat tank contents.

An 8,000-gal rectangular aboveground storage tank filled with diesel fuel was installed at a major airport in the Chicago area.
