Drum Heating Blanket 0-200°C

Kuhlmann Drum Heating Blanket 0-200°C (Reference: 11-987)

This professional Kuhlmann Electro Heat heating blanket is the reference solution for controlled heating of industrial drums. Designed to meet the most stringent requirements of professional sectors, it ensures precise temperature maintenance between 0 and 200°C. This advanced technology guarantees uniform heat distribution, preserving the integrity and properties of your stored products.

Applications and Professional Benefits

This heating blanket is aimed at professionals in the chemical, petrochemical, food and pharmaceutical industries who handle liquids sensitive to thermal variations. It excels at maintaining optimal viscosity of oils, greases, resins and viscous chemical products, thus facilitating their transfer and use. The anti-freeze protection it offers is crucial for outdoor installations or unheated warehouses, preventing crystallisation of cold-sensitive products.

Maintenance workshops, laboratories and production units also benefit from this technology to pre-heat fluids before processing, thereby improving the efficiency of industrial processes. The extended temperature range of 0 to 200°C covers virtually all industrial needs, from simple frost protection to high-temperature applications.

Technologies and Technical Specifications

The Kuhlmann Electro Heat heating system integrates resistive heating elements distributed uniformly across the entire surface of the blanket. This design ensures progressive and uniform temperature rise, avoiding hot spots that could alter the quality of stored products. The integrated thermostat offers precise regulation to the nearest degree, allowing fine temperature control according to each product's specifications.

The blanket is manufactured with materials resistant to chemical attack and severe industrial conditions. Its outer coating protects against moisture, splashes and climatic variations. The modular design allows perfect adaptation to different types of standard drums, ensuring optimal contact for efficient heat transfer. The high-performance thermal insulation limits energy losses and optimises operating costs.

Installation and Implementation

Installing this heating blanket is achieved in a few simple steps thanks to its quick-fastening adjustable strap system. Simply position the blanket around the drum, tighten the straps to ensure uniform contact, then connect to a suitable power supply. The thermostat activates immediately and allows you to set the desired temperature via a clear and intuitive digital display.

To optimise performance, it is recommended to check the blanket's seal around the drum to avoid thermal bridging. Maintenance is limited to regular cleaning with a damp cloth and periodic inspection of cables and connections. Temperature monitoring via the thermostat allows parameters to be adjusted according to changing needs or seasonal variations.

Expert Tips and Optimisation

To maximise the efficiency of your heating blanket, our experts recommend providing additional insulation for outdoor applications exposed to wind. Combining it with an external temperature controller allows complete automation of the process and thermal data traceability. Consider also installing temperature probes in the product for even more precise control.

This blanket pairs perfectly with electric transfer pumps and heated fittings from our range to create a complete heating system. For critical applications, adding a thermal alarm system prevents any temperature exceedance. Professionals in the chemical sector particularly appreciate the ability to programme heating cycles to optimise energy consumption according to production periods.
