Tank Heater Log (THL)
Petrotherm's Electric Tank Heater Logs provide efficient heating
of fuel oil and crude oil storage tanks. The unit consists of
3-6 heating elements, mounted on a flange header assembly, supported
by a pipe stiffiner located inside the heater array, to prevent
"sagging" of the elements. The elements are held in
place by several spacer plates.
The THL mounts to the tank wall on a raised face flange which
is either welded or screwed onto the tank wall. The use of low-watt
density elements allow use of the heater directly in the oil without
concern for "coking" or heater elements burnout. The
temperature control system consists of (2) temperature probes,
a liquid level sensor (located above heater level to prevent fluid
level going below the heater), power contactor, control voltage
transformer and circuit breaker housed in a NEMA enclosure.

Replaceable Elements:
With other heaters the entire assembly must be
replaced if even one heater element burns out.
Petrotherm's design allows replacement of individual
elements, easily done by one operator. |
 |
Long Life: Low watt-density
design and ample spacing between elments. |
 |
Efficient: 100% of the heat
energy is transferred directly to the fluid. |
 |
Cost Savings: Greater economy
in maintenance and operation. |
