Over the Side Vat Heaters

Our Over the Side Vat Heaters are available in the following sheath materials.

• Stainless Steel 321 (Mild Steel Alternative) – Cheapest.
• Stainless Steel 316 – Most popular.
• Grade 1 Titanium – Only if you really need it for your specific chemical as expensive.
• PTFE/FEP/Tefl-on Sheathed elements (SS316 elements with a PTFE sheathe pulled onto them by a bloke that looks like Popeye, link for ill educated youngsters!) Only if you are rich & REALLY need it for your specific chemical as VERY expensive.

These Over the Side Vat Heaters benefit from being moveable from vessel to vessel, (as long as you switch them off & let ’em cool down first) without the need to drain the vessel, as would be necessary with a “Thru the Side” immersion heater.

Everybodies applications & requirements are different, so best we have a conversation. Call Jamie on 07897 246 779 at your convenience. Best to come prepared with your available drop, preffered shape if it needs bending, as below, and I warn you in advance, I will tell you to confirm with your chemical suppliers as to the appropriate sheathe material & watt density for yur solution, as I know heaters, not chemicals.
