Heater Logs (HL)

Petrotherm Electric Heater Logs are designed for insertion into pipe housings and provide efficient in-line preheating of fuel oils for steam generators, heater treaters or other fuel-fired equipment.

The Heater Log consists of 3-6 heating elements mounted on a flanged header assembly and utilizes a proprietary element spacer that does not restrict the oil flow and causes no "damming", thus reducing the chances of premature heater burn-out. The elements are individually replaceable in case of heater burn-out, dramatically reducing replacement costs.

A thermowell can be located in the center of the flange assembly for a standard 3/8" liquid bulb or other sensor. Please consult the factory for non-standard requirements, including special mounting flanges, different lengths, power ratings, thermowell sizes, RTD and electronic temperature control, and explosion proof designs.
