HeetSheet-X

Description

Thermon HeetSheet-X Heavy Gage tank heating units consist of two sheets of 20-gauge, type 304 stainless steel, complying with ASTM A240. These stainless steel sheets are continuously seam-welded together along an outer continuous perimeter, with interrupted seam welds arranged inside the perimeter. The welded unit offers multiple flow paths, reducing the risks of internal blockage that can occur with single-flow designs.

For operating temperatures up to 191°C, a factory-applied non-hardening heat transfer compound is used on the HeetSheet unit’s surface that contacts the tank wall. This application eliminates air gaps and optimizes heat transfer.

For temperatures above 191°C, T-75 heat transfer compound may be applied to the HeetSheet units in the field just before attaching them to the tank wall.

HeetSheet units are available in various sizes and are pre-rolled to conform to the tank’s radius. Stainless steel tubing inlet and outlet nozzles are provided for steam or other heating or cooling media. A simple tubing union compression-type fitting is used to connect the inlet and outlet tubes to ThermoTube pre-insulated leads (supply tubing) and tails (return tubing), which must be purchased separately.

Features

• Each design relies on established and predictable heat transfer coefficients
• Thermon heat transfer compounds offer high heat transfer rates
• Requires only 1/2 to 1/3 the heating surface area of plate-type coils for similar applications
• Pre-rolled units ensure quick installation
• Suitable for both heating and cooling applications
• Eliminates the possibility of cross-contamination between heating media and tank/vessel contents
