For this local project we supplied and installed trace heating to provide temperature maintenance on a large cylindrical tank. The steel tank, 2m diameter and 8.4m long, required maintaining at +70°C. Our design utilised type SC constant wattage heating tape controlled by DTC temperature control units.
Here ESH were contracted to design, supply and install trace heating to temperature maintain three large storage tanks, two tanks at +30°C and one at +10°C, all within a minimum ambient temperature of -20°C.
A total of 420m of Type FBT self regulating heating tape was required to complete the tank heating systems.
For this process temperature maintenance application, ESH designed, supplied and installed a trace heating system to a stainless steel tank containing molasses. The 1.22m diameter x 1.37m tall steel tank, needed to maintain a temperature between +60 to +70°C.
