The systems, components and supplies used to create heat in industrial heat processing applications are stock and custom, depending on the use.

Topics

Boilers

Steam generators and boilers are used to create steam to transfer and deliver heat directly and indirectly to industrial and chemical processes.

Burners

Most modern industrial processes are heated by gas burners.

Chillers

Temperature control systems and chillers are used to heat and cool, or just cool, industrial processes to maintain process temperatures within the desired temperature band.

Dryers

Designed to remove high volumes of moisture, typically water, from the products being heated, dryers range in size from a table-top cabinet unit to tower designs.

Heat Exchangers

Also called coils, heat exchangers transfer heat between two or more streams across a media, typically metal. Common designs include shell-and-tube and plate-and-frame.

Heat Tracing

Whether steam or electric, heat tracing is used to maintain process temperatures or protect against heat loss or freezing.

Heat Transfer Fluids

Also called thermal fluids, heat transfer fluids offer thermal stability at elevated temperatures and allow users to heat products and processes indirectly.

Heaters

Electric process heaters come in every shape and size imaginable: band, ring, rod, immersion, flanged, mica, infrared and more.

Ovens

Operating at temperatures up to approximately 1,000°F, industrial ovens run the gamut from small benchtop units to massive conveyorized systems.

Power Controls

Power controls provide a way to manage the power supplied to the heat processing equipment.

Pumps

Pumps are an essential part of many heat processing operations by providing the motive power for fluids.

Valves

Valves control media flow, allowing or preventing it from passing in response to inputs from the process controls.
