Hazardous Area Explosion Proof Drum Heaters with Explosion Proof Temperature Controller
Hazardous Area Explosion Proof Drum Heaters - Product Description
Serious quality FM approved Hazardous Area Explosion Proof Drum Heaters are low-watt density electric mat heaters with explosion resistant temperature controllers for T3 and T4A environments. Providing an efficient means of freeze protection, viscosity control and melting of solids in Class I, Division 2 areas . Hazardous environments have special considerations in order to keep it safe such as auto-ignition points. No matter what needs to be heated, we have a solution that meets the rigorous criteria of a hazardous area.
