Designed and manufactured by Cast Aluminum Solutions (CAS), CAST-X Circulation Heaters are engineered using the latest thermal modeling and finite element analysis technology. CAST-X heaters feature low-watt-density heating elements cast into aluminum bodies which also contain the helical-coiled stainless steel flowpath tubes. The media is sequestered in these tubes, never touching the heating elements: a critical safety benefit, especially when heating explosive or sensitive media. All CAST-X units are capable of heating liquids and gases alike. CAST-X heaters are self-draining, for safety and cleanliness. With compact, non-welded bodies, plus NEMA & ATEX enclosures, CAST-X units are small-footprint, high-output heaters that meet the needs of high-purity processes, flammable operations, and your most critical heating applications.
