FLANGED IMMERSION HEATERS

flanged immersion heaters
Tubular heaters or Mighty-Blade elements are brazed or welded into a standard pipe flange. Standard flange sizes include: 3", 4", 5", 6", 8", 10", 12" and 14". Flanged immersion heaters are used in large capacity vessels, in high pressure applications and are installed by bolting the unit to a matching flange welded to the vessel wall.
