Heaters play an essential role in the processing systems at oil and gas refineries. Traditionally, the industries used fuel-fired heaters to run thermal processes. However, as the international emphasis on decarbonization and greener alternatives continues to gain momentum, process industries around the world are now switching to using electric heat instead of burning fossil fuels.
Electric heaters convert 100% of the power input into heat energy. So, they produce zero emissions as compared to fired heaters. Using electric heat offers numerous other benefits like:
- Lower operational costs
- Minimal maintenance
- Safe operation
- And larger turn-down ratios
The electric heaters help to maintain or raise the temperature of chemical cleansing agents, heavy oil, gases, etc. These heaters are critical in accelerating processes and boosting productivity.
Indeeco designs and manufactures highly engineered electric heating and thermal management solutions for industrial markets. They offer specialty heating solutions for skid-mounted process systems, storage tanks, cooling towers, and more.
The process skid business is highly competitive and time-critical. Indeeco offers products that will reduce the footprint and lower the cost. They offer Pipe Thread Heaters, Flange Heaters, and Circulation Heaters with voltages up to 600V. Indeeco can also provide a control system for any electric process heating application. Standard and custom-sized enclosures, along with custom-designed control operation, give Indeeco the flexibility to supply a wide range of remote, built-on, or skid-mounted control panels to complete the heater control system.
Storage tanks contain chemical cleansing agents that need to be maintained at optimal temperatures. Indeeco Electric Storage Tank Heaters are used to maintain or raise the temperature of gases and fluids in tanks from -300°F to 1000°F for a variety of applications and industries. These heaters are designed with low-watt density, open coil heating elements for uniform eating of even the most temperature-sensitive materials. The heater is mounted to the tank by one of three methods:
- ANSI flange mount
- Adapter box mount
- Custom rectangular flange
Seasonally shutting down a cooling tower by draining the tower is often not possible. Using an anti-freeze solution in an open recirculating tower is not recommended. Electric heaters are increasingly being used to maintain cold water basin temperatures above freezing.
Indeeco offers a pre-engineered, UL Listed/CSA-approved package for winterizing cooling towers. Indeeco heaters and control panels provide maximum cooling tower freeze protection. The complete package includes an electric immersion heater, control panel, dual action sensor probe, wiring diagram, and installation and operating instructions.
Indeeco specializes in function-critical heaters that perform according to your precise specifications even in the most demanding and hazardous environments. From immersion heaters to specialty engineered process heating systems, Indeeco has a solution.
