Screw plug heater applications

There are a great number of useful, practical applications for these heating elements. The screw plug heater is most commonly used in process heating of water, in the heating of oils and other heat transfer mediums and in freeze protection. The compactness of the design and the unit's direct contact with heating mediums means a more effective and more efficient process, making the screw plug immersion heater a favorite in industrial settings.

Features of screw plug heaters

We at WATTCO™ have been manufacturing a variety of heating elements for any number of applications for nearly four decades. Each of our units consists of tubular elements that are welded or brazed to a screw plug (heaters in our line of products come with an NPT range from 1 inch to 4 inches) with terminal enclosures that are specific to your application. The unit is screwed right into a tank wall or pipe coupling.

WATTCO™ screw plug heaters heat quickly yet safely, cutting down on inefficient heating and operation costs. Plus, the design of our unique product allows for nearly maintenance-free operation, as well as inexpensive and easy replacement when necessary.

On-demand screw plug immersion heater

At Wattco, we know that making the product is just part of our service obligation. (Our product line includes, but is not limited to finned, flanged, tubular, cartridge, band, silicone and screw plug immersion heater designs.) The other piece of the puzzle is providing expedient delivery of those much needed supplies. When a tank or pressure vessel is down, yes, easy screw plug immersion heater installation is important, but all that is meaningless if delivery of the replacement part is slow.

As us about our rush delivery option, and option that puts that much-needed fix in your hands in just 3-5 days.
