TEMPCO FLEXIBLE HEATERS FOR
HOPPERS IN LIQUID FILLING EQUIPMENT

Surface heating is the preferred method of heating for this application since it’s less likely to overheat the fluid in the hopper. Surface heating the external metal allows the material inside the hopper to be heated slowly. Two heaters were designed – a cylindrical heater to wrap around the top of the container and a larger, cone-shaped heater to wrap around the bottom funnel of the container.

To avoid PLC programming, both flexible heaters were designed to be controlled independently with surface mount thermostats rated at 70°-190°F that were set to reach the optimal temperature. Additional design features include:

  • Mounting Method of boot hooks and springs so that the heaters can be easily removed
  • Electrical termination of a simple, 120-volt plug
  • Two different wattages were used for this application: 500 Watts for the larger heater and 250 watts for the smaller heater
  • 120 Volts • UL recognized component heater

Tempco recommended an optimal, flexible heating solution for this application and were able to quickly design and manufacture these silicone rubber heaters to help meet the customer’s requirements.

Need to heat gases, water, fuels, paints or solvents?

Custom engineered and manufactured Tempco Cast-In Circulation Heaters are ideal for applications requiring gases or liquids to be heated indirectly. Offered in three standard sizes, the aluminum heat exchanger isolates heated material from the high-density cartridge heater or tubular heating element.

Tempco’s expert engineering and excellent quality products make the difference! 

UNIQUE DESIGNS FOR UNIQUE APPLICATIONS

Tempco’s Flanged Immersion Heaters are crafted to fit your custom process heating needs. These tubular heating elements are silver brazed or TIG welded to a flange cut from steel or stainless steel plate. They are easily and economically engineered into new equipment.

With custom flange sizes, thicknesses and shapes, Watt Solutions® can custom design the ideal solution for your application!
