FIREBAR® heating elements provide added heating performance over
standard round tubular heating elements—especially for industrial
immersion heater applications in petroleum based liquids requiring high
kilowatts.
The FIREBAR's unique flat surface geometry packs more power in
shorter elements and assemblies, along with a host of other performance
improvements. These include:
- Minimizing coking and fluid degrading
- Enhancing the flow of fluid past the element's surface to carry heat from the sheath
- Improving heat transfer with a significantly larger boundary layer
allowing much more liquid to flow up and across the sheath's surface
FIREBAR industrial immersion heaters are available in single- and
double-ended constructions with one inch or 5⁄8 inch heights. These two
configuration variables make it possible to use FIREBAR elements instead
of round tubular elements in virtually all applications.
FINBAR™ is a special version of the one inch, single-ended FIREBAR.
FINBAR is specially modified with fins to further increase surface area
for air and gas heating applications.
