HCI Helical Coil Heater
Heats thermal fluid, which in turn heats tanks, presses, dryers, reactors, chillers, extruders, steam generators and other equipment used for industrial processing. Other HCI heaters heat products that flow throught the heating coils of the heater. Available in both horizontal and vertical configurations. Designed around a helical coil and provides high efficiency, simplicity, low maintenance and relatively low cost. Coil meets ASME code. Outputs range from 0.7 to 30-million Btu/hour.

Vertical Helical Coil Heater
An upright helical-coil heater popular in the chemical and petro-chemical industries. Can be found on offshore oil and gas platforms. Its primary use is to heat thermal fluids and natural gas. Capacities range from 1 to 30 million Btu/hour.

Three-Pass Helical Coil Heater
A very high efficiency helical coil heater. Has two helical coils, a smaller coil that fits inside of a larger coil. Hot burner gases pass through the center of the smaller coil and double back between it and the larger coil. They then travel back between the outer diameter of the larger coil and the heater shell. Thus, the gases make three passes through the heater before they reach the exhaust stack. Capacities range from 0.7 to 60 million Btu/hour. Available in horizontal and vertical configurations.

Vertical Down-Fired Heater
An upright helical coil heater with the burner mounted on top of the heating chamber. Used in manufacturing, especially where a small footprint is needed. Two versions are available. One has a single coil for two-pass gas flow. The other has two coils for three-pass gas flow. Outputs range from 500,000 to 60 million Btu/hour.

Vertical Mixing Tank
Used in the roofing industry to heat and mix modified bitumen. Also used in the chemical industry for heating and mixing chemicals. Available with top-mounted mixers and furnished complete with heating coils surrounding the tank, insulation, and aluminum insulation covers. Designed for each application. Tank sizes range from 500 to 20,000 gallons.

Bath Heater
Indirectly heats process fluids in either gaseous or liquid states. The fluids flow through the heated coils in the heater. The coils are immersed in a liquid bath heated by a fire tube, which is heated by a burner. The liquid bath may be a mixture of water and glycol, a salt solution, or occasionally a thermal fluid, depending upon the temperatures needed. Capacities range from 300,000 to 6 million Btu/hour.

Cabin Style Heater
Is used mainly in the chemical, petrochemical, and petroleum industries. The heat inside of the cabin shell is directed outward to coils in the inner walls. This provides direct heating of the process fluids passing through the coils. This type of unit is primarily in difficult high-temperature processes (Amine and DEA re-boilers) where frequent cleaning of the combustion chamber is needed. Capacities range from 1 to 50 million Btu/hour.

Waste Heat  Recovery Unit
Recovers heat from exhaust gases of gas-powered turbines or other machines or processes that generate heated gases that might otherwise be wasted. Can be used with turbine engines, recriprocating engines, or with process streams. The hot gases are routed around finned coils that pick up the heat. The coils heat fluid flowing through them. The fluid is used to heat other materials. We design the units for your specific application.

Expansion Tank and Pump
Usually provided as options for various types of heaters. Larger heaters usually have expansion tanks and pumps mounted on separate skids as shown here. However, smaller heaters may have them mounted on the same structure as the heater.
