Fast Heat-up with Flat Surface Technology Watlow’s FIREBAR heaters with flat surface technology provide faster heat-up and recovery times than standard round tubular heaters. Their unique shape minimizes coking and oil degradation, and enhances the flow of the oil past the element’s surface, helping to pull heat away from the heater sheath. The heater lasts longer because it runs at a significantly lower sheath temperature than an equal watt density round tubular. This also prolongs the life of the oil or shortening and reduces costs from frequent changing. Because of its design and geometry,...

• Nichrome resistance wire. High grade resistance wire is precisely wound to provide the heat required for your application. • Magnesium oxide (MgO) insulation. High purity material is compacted around the coils for optimum thermal conductance and dielectric strengths. • Sheath material. Incoloy® and 304 stainless steel are available. 304 stainless steel is limited to 650°C (1200°F) maximum sheath temperature. Incoloy® is limited to 760°C (1400°F) maximum. • Lead wire termination ranging from 90 to 250°C (194 to 482°F) construction. Fiberglass sleeving combined with epoxy, Lavacone or RTV seal...

Smart Heating Elements Provide System Data Relevant to Equipment Maintenance, Safety and Automation Watlow’s smart heating elements, such as FIREBAR and tubular heaters, are equipped with a sensor inside the heater. When used with automated cooking components, such as the Diagnostic Module (DM), WATLINK™ software, or MINICHEF® cooking computers, they provide important system data relevant to equipment maintenance, safety and automation. These smart components provide data for liquid level sensing, high temperature conditions, dry fire limits, service functions for cleaning and component failure...
