Legacy - CPHI High Intensity Quartz Faced Radiant Heater [Technical Overview]
Legacy - Specification for CPHI high intensity quartz faced radiant heaters. CPHI heaters produce micron levels between 2.5 and 6.0. At these micron levels the majority of the CPHI heaters fall into the middle of the IR spectrum, categorizing them as medium wave heaters. Single heating elements or multiple elements can be zoned and wired to achieve specific heating profiles. Outer edges of the element can have gradual increasing watt density to compensate for production edge losses.

NWHO Series Light, Medium & Heavy Weight Oil Applications [Technical Overview]
Specification for NWHO series light, medium and heavy weight oil applications. Chromalox Oil Circulation heaters are ideal for temperature maintenance and for improving flow characteristics of light, medium, and heavy weight oils. They can also be used for heat transfer oils or the preheating of fuel oils. Which provides better atomization at the burners allowing the use of lower grade fuel oils. Light and Medium Weight Oil (20 - 23 W/ In2 ) Ideal for temperature maintenance and for improving flow characteristics of oils. They are also used to heat Heat Transfer Oils under proper conditions. Heavy or Fuel Oil (5 - 15 W/In2 ) — Heating heavy oils reduces the viscosity, thereby improving flow and process efficiency. Preheating fuel oils provides better atomization at the burners and allows the use of lower grade fuel oils.
