CAST-X Circulation heaters

Product catalog summary

Overview of CAST-X Circulation Heaters
CAST-X circulation heaters are designed for efficient heating of liquids and gases, featuring stainless steel flowpath tubes and non-welded construction. They are equipped with UL-approved heating elements and are capable of safely heating flammable media by isolating it in the flowpath tube, preventing contact with heating elements.

Key Features

Seamless stainless steel (316L) flow-tubes compatible with high-pressure applications, rated up to 4000 psi (275 bar) for CAST-X 2500.
Moisture-resistant, explosion-proof, and general-purpose enclosures available to meet various application needs.
Media is isolated in tubes, preventing contamination, making it suitable for food, medical, and semiconductor applications.
Self-draining tubes enhance safety.

Tube Configuration Options

Single Tube: Utilizes one tube with the second as a spare.
Parallel: Media flows through Tube 1 then Tube 2 for maximum dwell time and increased Delta-T.
Series: Media flows simultaneously in and out of Tubes 1 & 2 for maximum flow-rate.
