Electric Immersion Heaters For Parts Finishing TanksDurex was contacted by a company who was experiencing electric immersion heater failure problems in their parts finishing tanks.Some of the harshest applications for tank heating are the processing, heat treating, finishing and cleaning of metal parts. A wide variety of acid, base, aqueous and non-aqueous solutions provide a host of material, wattage and heater configuration challenges. Sludge build up, suspended particulates and other contaminants further complicate the application of electric heaters. For this customer, we recommended a switch from 304SS to an Incoloy element material in the electric immersion heater desgin, as well as a reduction in watt density by 1/2 to significantly reduce the corrosion rate and premature element failure. The parts cleaning production dramatically improved and reduction in downtime recouped all investment costs many fold.
