Tank and Vessel Heating

Efficient Direct-Immersion Heating for Industrial Tanks

Industrial tank and vessel heating is one of the most common process heating applications. Sri Ambika immersion heaters provide near-100% thermal efficiency by delivering heat directly into the process fluid. From small screw-plug heaters for compact vessels to large flanged assemblies for process tanks and circulation heaters for continuous flow systems — we cover the full range.

Engineering

Key Engineering
Considerations

Immersion heater watt density selection based on fluid type and viscosity

Sheath material selection: SS304/316L for water, Incoloy for oils, Titanium for chemicals

Flange rating selection: ANSI 150, 300, or custom for pressure vessels

Dry-fire protection: thermostat or thermal fuse for level-sensing safety

Circulation heater sizing for flow rate and inlet/outlet temperature differential
