Heating Equipment
The Screw Plug Heater is a compact immersion electric heating device, specially designed for direct heating of liquid, gas or semi-solid media. It is directly installed in the threaded holes of containers or pipes through threaded interfaces and is widely used in industrial, civil and special fields. The threaded heater adopts high-quality heating elements and corrosion-resistant materials, which can provide efficient and uniform heating effects, and is suitable for small containers or scenarios that require precise temperature control. The product, with its features of easy installation, high thermal efficiency and strong reliability, has become an ideal choice for a variety of heating applications.
Features
1. Threaded installation design: Standard NPT or BSP threads (1/2" to 3") are adopted, which are convenient for direct screwing into the threaded interfaces of containers or pipes, and the installation is simple.
2. High-performance heating element: Built-in nickel-chromium alloy heating wire, filled with high-purity magnesium oxide, ensuring efficient heat conduction and electrical insulation.
3. Diverse materials: The sheath material can be selected from stainless steel (SUS304/SUS316), copper or Incoloy, adapting to different media and environments.
4. Temperature control and safety devices: Supports built-in thermostats, thermocouples or RTD sensors, and is equipped with over-temperature protection and anti-dry burning functions.
5. Compact structure: Suitable for small containers or space-constrained scenarios, with single or multiple heating tubes designed to meet different power requirements.
6. Protection grade: Multiple electrical enclosure options such as NEMA 1 (universal), NEMA 4 (waterproof), and NEMA 7 (explosion-proof) are provided to adapt to harsh environments.
Advantages
1. Easy installation: The threaded design does not require complex fixing devices, making it easy to install and disassemble, and reducing maintenance costs.
2. High efficiency and energy saving: With a thermal efficiency of over 95%, it heats up rapidly and reduces energy waste.
3. Precise temperature control: When combined with a temperature control device, it can achieve a temperature control accuracy of ±1°C, making it suitable for high-precision applications.
4. Strong durability: Corrosion-resistant and high-temperature resistant materials extend service life and are suitable for harsh working conditions.
5. Flexible customization: Power, voltage, thread size, sheath material and immersion length can be customized according to requirements.

Application
1. Industrial heating
Liquid heating: It is used for heating water tanks, oil tanks, and chemical solution tanks, and is suitable for the chemical, petroleum, and food processing industries (such as hot water, hydraulic oil, and asphalt).
Gas heating: It is applied to the preheating or heat preservation of gases such as air, nitrogen, and CO2, and is commonly found in environmental protection equipment and industrial furnaces.
2. Civilian field:
Hot water supply: Suitable for household or commercial water heaters, dishwashers, and coffee machines, providing a fast and stable heat source.
Cleaning and disinfection: Used for high-temperature cleaning equipment, such as spray washing machines and steam generators, to ensure hygiene standards.
3. Food and Beverage Processing:
It is widely used in food processing plants and beverage production lines to heat edible oil, syrup and sauce, maintain the viscosity of the products or perform pasteurization.
Ensure that the containers for food are sterilized at high temperatures before canning to extend the shelf life of the food.
4. Special Applications:
Medical and pharmaceutical: It is used for equipment sterilization and process fluid heating, meeting strict hygiene and temperature control requirements.
Anti-freezing protection: It is used for anti-freezing of pipelines, water tanks or storage tanks in cold environments to ensure the normal operation of the system.
Product Parameter
How It Works
Sinton Screw Plug Heaters heat by direct contact, either fixed or connected by screwing into the threaded opening of tanks or vessels. The element inside is electrified rods or coils for creating heat, then transferred to the medium, increasing its temperature to the required level.
Functional Capacity
Fluids and gases, including water, oil, glycol, air, and nitrogen, are among those these heaters heat. They find major applications in heating operations of maintenance temperature, protection from freezing, and preheat for start-up operations.
Comparative Analysis
The Sinton Screw Plug Heaters give a balance between compactness, efficiency, and ease of installation compared to other methods of heating. Maybe with other methods comes large immersion heaters that, in turn, produce a larger amount of power output, but screw plug heaters are good for those small spaces and vessels. The design is such that the former is readily replaceable, hence both functional and practical, compared with more industrial heating requirements.
Installation Flexibility
From an application point of view, this is capable of being installed in either a horizontal or vertical arrangement to ensure that there is an installation arrangement that can either meet the needs of fluid circulation or the considerations required for heat distribution.
Selection Criteria
Choosing a Sinton Screw Plug Heater involves several considerations:
●Fluid Type: Ensuring compatibility with the intended medium.
●Operating Conditions: Meeting the specific temperature and pressure requirements.
●Material Selection: Choosing materials based on the properties of the fluid or gas.
●Power Needs: Ensuring the heater has sufficient wattage for the desired heating effect.
Design Features
●Compactness and Efficiency: Suitable for limited spaces where performance cannot be compromised.
●Ease of Installation and Maintenance: The screw-in design simplifies both processes.
●Versatility: Can heat a wide range of fluids and gases. Customization: Available in various materials, wattages, and with control features.
It shall be of utmore importance to ensure these are chosen in regard to the corrosiveness and viscosity, together with the thermal conductivity of the fluid or gas.
Applications
Sinton screw plug Heaters could be used in the chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, food, and beverage, oil and gas industries for tasks like tank heating, freeze protection, and process heating. Custom Options Heaters can be made available in specific demands of material selection, wattage, and the features of temperature controls by means of thermoreats or thermocouples.
