6FLX Series -Fluoropolymer (PTFE), 6″ Flanged Heater

Description

Product Features and Benefits:

SUPERIOR CHEMICAL RESISTANCE: Inert to most aqueous acid, anodizing and plating solutions.  Check solution recommendation chart or with your chemical supplier for proper sheath material selection.

RUGGED CONSTRUCTION: Heavy wall fluoropolymer (PTFE) covered stainless steel sheath reduces permeation and eliminates the need for gas purge systems.   Guaranteed 100% pinhold free.

• Rated for up to 50 PSI service.
• Vapor tight metal head.LONG LASTING PERFORMANCE: Low watt densities of 10 watts per square inch (1.5 w/cm2) ensure long service life.

  SAFETY FEATURES:

• Grounded internal metal heating element.
• Thermal protection built in.  Replaceable P1 device standard for solutions up to 180°F (82°C).CERTIFICATIONS: CE.

  **THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTION SYSTEM: (Controller and Heater protection system must match)

  Protector 1 (P1)-Standard over-temperature control system utilizes a heat sensitive fuse to detect overheat conditions. The fuse, placed inside a thermowell, positioned in contact with the heater sheath, will cut power to the heater in the event of low liquid level.

  Protector 2 (P2) and Protector 3 (P3) -Optional systems provide the same reliable over temperature protection as the Protector 1; however, the control systems feature a heat sensing thermostat. Should the tank€™s liquid level drop to a preset overheat point, the thermostat will trip and an audible alarm will sound, cutting power to the heater. This eliminates dangerous operating conditions. After filling the tank, the immersion heater can be quickly made operational by pushing the reset button on the control to restore power. Protector III is designed for flexible lead or high temperature fluoropolymer (PTFE) heater applications only. DO NOT wire P3 or PT-3 devices directly to power or heater load as a dangerous short circuit will result with irreparable damage to the heater. Please refer to wiring diagrams for proper installation.

  ***All heaters must be operated in conjunction with appropriate temperature controls and thermal systems***
