FLOW TECHNOLOGY

Autopilot/Autopilot Lite/Copilot

Automatic product flow technology that adjusts a Hydroheater to maintain constant pressure drop across the unit.

Uses: Any K610 - K617 Hydroheater installations (also compatible on older K510 - K515 models)

Local control panel with inputs for differential pressure transmitter signal, pressure drop set point and system enable (Auto/Manual).

ACTUATORS

Hydrive™ Linear Actuator (HLA)

The only actuator designed from the ground up to optimize heater & skid performance – delivering the most accurate and precise temperature control available.

Uses: EZ Heaters and Sanitary Hydroheaters with up to 1.5” travel

The HLA can be paired with the Hydrive Connect app to make calibration fast, easy, and precise. The Hydrive Connect app can also monitor live performance and retrieve historical data for deeper analysis.

CUSTOM HYDROHEATER OPTIONS

Hydro-Thermal's heaters utilize a Fisher reverse-acting diaphragm actuator (“fail close”). Generally coupled with a filter/regulator and a Fisher DVC 2000 or a DVC 6200 positioner that converts a 4-20 mA DC input signal to pneumatic output signal to the actuator. For high vibration applications remote mount positioners are available. Alternative positioners are available depending on unique processing conditions or upon request. Please contact Hydro-Thermal for more details.

The Industrial Hydroheater is very robust and reliable, and can be further enhanced as needed for heating abrasive fluids.  For many applications, a weld overlay and enriched material in key areas is sufficient. Some applications such as slurries with sand content require additional overlays outside the basic weld overlay. This technique has greatly increased the heater’s internal component lifespan. Other fluids have required more extensive modifications. In oil sands froth heating applications, for example, a combination of a weld overlay  as well as the use of hard, abrasive resistant materials is recommended. For specific requirements for your application, please contact Hydro-Thermal directly. 

All Industrial Hydroheaters include a combining tube. An extended combining tube may be recommended for a large ΔT (high temperature rise). Please contact Hydro-Thermal for more details.
