Thermic fluid heaters are very efficient equipment used in process heating and it uses high viscous synthetic oil as a heating medium. Process Industry can achieve the maximum process heat temperature with low pressure in a Thermic fluid heater. Thermic fluid heaters are usually preferred because if we use the steam boiler for high temperatures then it would increase the overall cost of the project.
Thermic Fluid Heater Comprises of following:
- Heater coils
- Burner/Furnace
- Expansion cum Deaerator tank
- Air-cooled, Circulating oil pump with mechanical seal suitable for high temperature
- Primary and secondary fans (Depends on fuels)
- Heat recovery units
- Pollution control equipment (Includes only with solid fuel fired systems)
- Chimney for stack dispersal
- Control panel for ease of operation
- Prices
