FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to frequently asked questions related to Electrical Heating Solutions.

Yes, all duct heaters made by Tempsens conform to IEC specifications, have UL certification, and meet CCOE standards. Our systems meet the technical specifications required by both DEWA and ADWEA when deployed in the Gulf region. Terminal enclosures are weather-proof for normal atmospheric conditions and flame-proof for petrochemical areas, ensuring complete compliance with safety standards for installation in hazardous locations.

In discussing capacity (0.5KW to 2000KW) and temperature ranges (-40C and <= +600C), plus your application (drying, HVAC, etc.) & environmental conditions (coastal, desert, etc.) with our technical experts. Tempsens will help you identify the correct options for you in regards to elements, materials, and control systems best suited for a project in your part of the Gulf.

Tempsens employs a thorough quality assurance program throughout each step of manufacturing. Every electric duct heater manufactured by Tempsens undergoes rigorous testing to guarantee their base product is made with the minimum standards of strength, temperature regulation, and electrical safety. We use high-quality materials (stainless steel or alloy 800 sheath) with built-in protections such as skin temperature controls on electric elements, earth fault protection, and over current protection to give you confidence in the reliability of your electric duct heater.

The immersion heater attaches to the tank or vessel wall through a threaded fitting. Heating occurs through electric resistance coils inside the sheath transferring heat energy to the fluid surrounding the immersion heater. The result is quick and efficient heating of the fluid.

A screw plug immersion heater can be used to heat any type of fluid including water/oil and solvent-based fluids as well as gas heating systems, however you will need to ensure you have the right sheath material and watt density selected for your specific medium to use it correctly.

A screw plug immersion heater installs using a threaded plug and is primarily designed to heat smaller tanks. Flanged heaters install using a bolted flange and are most commonly used with larger tanks while inline heaters are integrated directly into pipelines so they can heat continuously as fluid flows through them.

Industrial radiant heaters from Tempsens are built to run for long periods of time. They have been designed using thermocouples and thermostats, which allow them to maintain a safe and steady temperature when used for long duration or overnight.

Infrared radiant heater is dissimilar to convection (fan) heating systems in that it does not heat the surrounding air, making them much more efficient. High intensity infrared heaters systems will perform very well in large, open and/or ventilated industrial environments, where convection systems will lose a lot of heat.

Finned tubular heater elements have tubular heating elements with metallic fins that are either brazed, crimped or welded onto the heating sheath that provide increased surface area for greater efficiency in transferring heat from the heating element onto the surrounding area for heating air or gas.

Open coil heaters operate by inserting a resistance wire directly into air to create radiation, while finned tubular heaters use a magnesium oxide filled heating sheath, which is then provided with fins to allow more efficient convective heating of the surrounding air and for protection of the wire.

Circulation heaters are electric heat generating devices that operate by using a continuous flow or multiple cycle of the process fluid moving through a heating element-filled pressurized tank. The circulation heater provides an efficient way to raise the temperature of the process fluid rapidly for the purpose of being utilized in many different industrial applications. immersion heater consists of only the heating element in the tank or vessel with no dedicated flow control.

In fact, circulation heaters can be used in hot climates such as those in Dubai and Abu Dhabi because they have been properly insulated and have built-in cooling features to enable them to operate continuously in high ambient temperature situations.

You may use cables designed for electric floor heating that are equipped with XLPE, PTFE, FEP, or ETFE insulation and PVC (HR-FR) jacket outside. Tempsens has many different models of heating cables ranging from 6 W/m to 17 W/m in size to accommodate a variety of floor areas and heat loads required by the installation.

Electric floor heating cables create heat via resistive heating. The electric current flows through a CuNi resistance conductor within the cable, converting electrical energy to heat which then radiates upward from the floor into the room via the covering of the floor.

Tempsens offers floor heating cables that can warm a room as the sole source of heat. Because of the uniform cable spacing and an electronic thermostat, the whole area is evenly heated without having any cold spots.

Electric underfloor heating cable has no moving parts, no valves and no water; therefore it does not have any maintenance requirements. As compared to Hydronic systems which require periodic service and are susceptible to plumbing blockages, Tempsens heating cable floor systems will not require any maintenance throughout their entire warranty period.

Yes. This product contains a fully grounded mat made with 100% aluminum foil shield and PVC (HR-FR) outer jacketing making it safe for both residential and commercial use including wet area installations such as bathrooms.

For sure! You will be saving between 20%-40% more energy than with traditional heating systems. No maintenance will be required and you receive a warranty for 30 years. All these factors combined make electric heated floor mats a good choice for an overall long-term cost-effective heating solution.

No! Tempsens electric heated underfloor mat systems work at specific power densities like 100 W/m² or 150 W/m² and when controlled with a digital thermostat, the heaters are required to use energy optimally rather than being on full load constantly.

An open coil heater is made of coiled heating element wire that has been arranged into a helical shape, and a sinusoidal strip heater is made of flat resistance wire that has been shaped into a wavy pattern. Although both can be used for heating applications in furnaces and air, they differ in geometric shape and watt density distribution.

Open coil and sinusoidal strip heaters provide faster heat up times than enclosed or sheathed heater designs because they transfer heat by radiance directly into the surrounding material (air or water) without an insulation layer between them.

Whether an open coil heater produces even or concentrated heating is determined by the element’s winding density and coil spacing. With a compactly designed coiled nozzle, an open coil heater enables full 360° heat output, with an optional way for evenly distributing the output wattage.

Printed heater use conductive ink through a screen printing process on a substrate whereas wire wound heaters rely on resistance wire being wrapped around a core and foil heaters are manufactured with chemically etched metal sheets which require a larger profile and therefore send a great deal of waste to the landfill.

They are different technologies; flexible printed heating uses polymer materials with either silver or carbon ink and is rated for heating applications up to 90°C. Thick Film Heaters use either ceramic or metal substrates and can provide higher temperatures and watt densities.

Both printed and thick film heaters are designed for quick thermal responses, thanks to low thermal mass. A thick film heater is engineered specifically for fast heat-up and cool-down cycles in high-frequency switching applications.

Mica strip heaters are usually flat and are used to heat the surfaces of objects. Band heaters are cylindrical and fit around containers (barrels and/or pipes).

The stainless steel sheath on the mica strip heater provides users with corrosion protection from the high humid Gulf environments, it is recommended to have a terminal box added in order to provide extra moisture proofing.

The calculation of wattage depends on the size of the surface, the temperature you want to raise the object to and how long it takes to heat up to that temperature. The maximum recommended watt density for mica strip heaters is 45 W/inch2. Call Tempsens for additional help with custom calculations.

Hoppers are funnel-shaped containers used in power plants and industrial facilities to collect or transfer bulk materials, which include the collection of coal and ash, into their conveying system.

ESP hoppers utilize heaters to maintain hot temperatures in order to prevent ash from condensing or blocking the material away from the hoppers when discharging ash. This will allow for normal and flawless operation of the ESPs.

Hopper heaters require periodic inspections, in which you must check the heating elements, electrical couplings, and physical mounting hardware with the intent of your continued ability to perform and have long-lasting service to them.

The Tempsens Box Furnace has been built with Refractory Brick or Ceramic Fiber Board Insulation.

To minimize vibration during the handling of materials in order to reduce the risk of brittle ceramic materials and sensitive parts being exposed to mechanical shock during the thermal processing cycle.

Through the use of multiple layers of insulation along with the careful placement of heating elements (SiC, FeCrAl, MoSi2) it is possible to achieve very uniform thermal distribution (±1°C) and not experience any type of thermal gradients that could affect the quality of the finished product being processed.

The industrial bottom loading furnace operates at 1200°C, 1400°C, and 1800°C configurations with optimized heating elements for various high-temperature applications and material requirements.

Bottom loading contributes to temperature uniformity by providing strategically placed heating elements, multiple layers of insulation that allow for diffuse thermal distribution and no thermal gradient that would adversely affect material quality.

Bottom loading reduces the amount of vibration experienced during material handling; making it the best approach to handling brittle ceramics and delicate glass components that need as little mechanical disturbance as possible.
