    Enclosure Heaters 101

    Enclosure heaters and cabinets protect heating systems and equipment. Ordinary enclosures offer suitable protection from physical damage and elemental damage such as condensation. Hazardous area enclosures mitigate hazards from specific hazards in harsh environments or explosion risks. In addition to protecting the heater and increasing its durability, enclosure heaters can also improve safety for people […]

    What is Impedance Heating?

    Impedance heating is a clever approach to pipe heating. The pipe itself becomes the heater element rather than installing a heater into the pipe. The heating method achieves this by applying low voltage AC to the pipe with electricity. As the current moves through the piping, heat is created by the pipe materials’ resistance to […]

    Welding Techniques Used in Heating Elements for Electric Heaters

    Electric immersion heaters provide a vital source of heating in industrial applications by quickly raising the temperature of the heating medium. Their robust, compact, and uncomplicated design makes them a method of choice whenever industrial heating requirements arise.  Immersion heaters are efficient, economical in terms of initial investment and total cost of ownership. As well […]

    Natural-Draft vs Forced-Draft Burners

    Burners are immensely impactful equipment across multiple industries. They are used in the production, transport, and refinement of all sorts of products we use in our daily lives. They are especially valuable in the oil and gas industry, where they are involved in upstream, midstream, and downstream processes. One of their key functions is in […]

    Diagnosing Heating Systems With Ohmmeters

    An ohmmeter is a device that measures electrical resistance. It may do so using a micro-ohmmeter for low resistance or a megohmmeter (or Megger) for greater resistances. By accurately measuring ohms, some common heating system issues can be identified. Ohms Ohms are the unit of measurement an ohmmeter uses. Named for German physicist Georg Ohm, […]
