Guides & Resources

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about VULCAN from 3G Electric.

What sheath materials are available for VULCAN suspended immersion heaters?

VULCAN suspended immersion heaters are offered with steel or Incoloy sheaths. Steel sheaths are suitable for heating water and oils in less corrosive environments. Incoloy sheaths provide higher resistance to corrosion and oxidation, making them appropriate for heating chemical solutions and other aggressive fluids. The choice of sheath material depends on the specific liquid being heated and the operating temperature. For example, models with Incoloy sheaths include the TI-33TB, TI-39TB, and TI-312TB, while steel-sheathed options include the TSB-36TB and 3G-OTH-65957. When selecting a heater, consider the chemical compatibility of the sheath with the process fluid to ensure adequate service life.

What is the watt density of VULCAN finned strip heaters?

VULCAN finned strip heaters are available with watt densities such as 32 W/sq in. For instance, the OSF1517-1550A model operates at 120 V AC, single-phase, with a watt density of 32 W/sq in and an overall length of 17 7/8 inches. Watt density influences the surface temperature of the heater and its suitability for different airflow conditions. Higher watt densities can transfer more heat but may require higher airflow to prevent overheating. The finned design increases the surface area, allowing for efficient heat transfer to forced air. This type of heater is commonly used in duct heating, drying, and other forced convection applications. When selecting a finned strip heater, match the watt density to the airflow and temperature rise requirements of the process.

Can VULCAN immersion heaters be used in three-phase power systems?

Yes, several VULCAN suspended immersion heaters are designed for three-phase operation. Examples include the TI-312TB (12,000 W, 240 V AC, 3-phase) and the TI-39TB (9,000 W, 240 V AC, 3-phase). Three-phase heaters distribute the load across multiple elements, which can be beneficial for higher power ratings and balanced electrical systems. They are typically used in industrial settings where three-phase power is available. When installing a three-phase immersion heater, ensure the power supply matches the voltage and phase configuration of the heater. Consult the product specifications for wiring details and consult a qualified electrician for installation.

What are the typical applications for VULCAN over-the-side immersion heaters?

VULCAN over-the-side immersion heaters are used for heating liquids in open tanks or vessels. Common applications include heating water, oils, and chemical solutions in industrial processes. They are often found in metal finishing, plating, cleaning, and food processing operations. The over-the-side mounting allows the heater to be suspended in the tank without requiring a side-wall opening, simplifying installation and maintenance. These heaters are available in various wattages, voltages, and sheath materials to suit different fluids and temperatures. For example, the TIB-39TB is a 9,000 W, 240 V AC, 3-phase heater with an Incoloy sheath, suitable for corrosive solutions. The TSB-36TB is a 6,000 W, 240 V AC, single-phase heater with a steel sheath, appropriate for water and oils.

What standards do VULCAN heaters comply with?

VULCAN finned strip heaters may carry UL recognition. For example, the OSF1517-1550A model is UL recognized. Other VULCAN heaters may also meet relevant industry standards, but specific certifications should be verified per model. When selecting a heater for a particular application, review the product datasheet for compliance information. UL recognition indicates that the component has been evaluated to applicable safety standards. However, the final installation must also comply with local electrical codes and regulations. 3G Electric provides product documentation that includes available standards information to assist with compliance assessments.
