The Benefits of Electric Heat

Process Heating Company’s Lo-Density® electric heat solutions provide unique benefits over fossil-fuel-fired heaters and direct immersion electric heaters. Our unique drywell-style heaters dissipate controlled heat as low as three watts per square inch on the heater’s sheath to prevent coking or damaging of temperature-sensitive materials. Compared to the inefficient burning of fossil fuels, electric heat is safe, consistent, environmentally friendly and 100% efficient because all of the energy is used to heat. And that efficiency will always be 100%, even after many years of operation—without costly maintenance.

ASPHALT

Our Lo-Density® drywell-style Unitized Storage Tank Heaters, Fuel-Oil Preheaters, Hot-Oil Heaters and Distributor Truck Heaters provide unique electric heat benefits for asphalt plants, including lower operating costs, improved product quality, reduced maintenance, significantly longer heater life and enhanced sustainability.

 

TANK BUILDERS

Lo-Density® electric heaters are an efficient and maintenance-free option for your customers. Our electric heating components are adaptable to any size or style tank and are completely customizable. These benefits allow you get precisely what you need, with quick turnaround to meet your manufacturing schedule.

 

INDUSTRIAL

We can fully customize our heating units to meet your needs for size or special applications. Materials that benefit from our low-watt-density heat include asphalt, light and heavy fuel oils, diesel, bio-diesel, glycerin, lube oils, hydraulic fluids, resins/epoxies, animal fats, molasses and other sensitive materials.
