Pipe Flange Heaters come in a wide variety of configurations, styles, and shapes. Our goal is create a simple yet effective design to solve any fluid-heating environment you have. By selecting the best sheath material, choosing the optimum fitting method and manufacturing the elements to any desired watt density you can expect the optimum engineered heating solution for your requirements. Fast delivery gets you this perfect heater almost immediately.
Pipe Flange Heaters normally have many individual heater elements, or blades, either welded or brazed into the flange. Elements arranged in multiples of 3 for balancing the load to your 3-phase power supply.
Flange Heater Nomenclature
* Insertion Length or "B" dimension
