The FP range of flameproof rod-type immersion heaters is a highly adaptable solution that can be customised to suit the process requirements of our clients, and are suitable for heating all types of process mediums which are non-corrosive to the materials of construction, and carry multiple approvals for global supply.
The FP rod-type immersion heater range is certified for use in hazardous areas where the atmosphere is classified as a Zone 1 or 2 (IIA, IIB, IIC) gas group, or a Zone 21 or 22 (IIIA, IIIB, IIIC) dust group.
Features
- Certified to ATEX and IECEx standards
- Mild steel or 316 stainless steel terminal enclosure with weatherproof protection to IP66 or Enclosure Type / NEMA 4 or 4X
- Choice of built in process temperature sensors
- Suitable for ambient temperatures from -60°C to +60°C (subject to cert parameters)
- Mounting of the heater can be by a threaded NPT or BSP boss or an industry standard flange
- Designed for horizontal installation (vertical mounting version available on request)
- Can be supplied with the terminal box mounted away from the fixing boss / flange
