Working Principle
Fluid Explosion-proof Electric Heater is a device that converts electrical energy into heat energy to heat the material to be heated. During operation, the low-temperature fluid medium enters the input port through the pipeline under pressure, flows along the specific heat exchange channel inside the electric heating container, following the path designed based on fluid thermodynamics principles, and takes away the high-temperature thermal energy generated by the electric heating element during operation, raising the temperature of the heated medium. The outlet of the electric heater obtains the high-temperature medium required by the process. The internal control system of the electric heater automatically adjusts the output power of the electric heater based on the temperature sensor signal at the outlet, ensuring uniform temperature of the medium at the outlet; when the heating element overheats, the independent overheat protection device immediately cuts off the heating power supply, preventing the heated material from overheating, coking, deterioration, carbonization, or even burning out the heating element, effectively extending the service life of the electric heater.

Main Uses in the Mechanical Electric Heating Industry

The explosion-proof electric heater is a high-efficiency, energy-saving, environmentally friendly, and safe explosion-proof industrial electric heating furnace developed based on advanced foreign electric heater technology. This electric heating furnace is a working method that uses electrical energy as a power source to convert its internal high-voltage temperature system into thermal energy.
Generally speaking, the explosion-proof electric heating furnace uses heat transfer oil as the heat carrier. The internal high-voltage temperature system, through the circulation pump of the heat transfer oil and forced processing of electrical energy, transfers the heat of the internal high-voltage temperature to one or more electric heating devices. After passing through the transition function in the high-voltage temperature system of the electric heating device, the heat transfer oil starts a new heating work efficiency, that is, through the circulation pump again, returns to the electric heating furnace to absorb heat a second time and transmit it to the internal high-voltage temperature system of the electric heating furnace. Through this cyclic work, the electric heating furnace continuously transfers heat, enabling the internal high-voltage temperature system of the electric heating furnace to obtain a continuous high-temperature energy source, thereby meeting the heating requirements of the heating medium during high-temperature processes.
The characteristics of explosion-proof electric heaters in the mechanical electric heating industry are as follows:
1. It can achieve continuous transfer of the internal high-voltage temperature system, ensuring that the internal high-voltage temperature system of the electric heating equipment uses electrical energy to obtain a higher temperature energy source, meeting the high-temperature heating requirements of the medium during operation, maximizing its effect.
2. This equipment has a precise structure, light volume, light weight, and convenient installation. During heating, it does not produce harmful pollution to the surrounding environment, and can obtain relatively high heating temperature and efficiency under relatively low working pressure.
3. High level of intelligence. Relevant technical personnel of China Electric Heater Network adopt advanced intelligent heating working mode, that is, by setting the original temperature in the working process through the high-temperature voltage medium inside the gas electric heater. In experiments, this temperature control accuracy can reach a range of ±2°C to ±0.2°C.
4. The internal high-pressure system of this equipment can provide alarm signals such as operation, high temperature, fault, and shutdown to the DCS system, and can also accept automatic and shutdown operation commands issued by DCS. Moreover, a reliable and safe monitoring device is added to the electric heater system, but the price reference of this electric heater is relatively high.
5. The electrical equipment has multiple related interfaces, which can effectively monitor the heat transfer oil pump, the temperature and flow of the heat transfer oil, and the internal high-voltage pressure. Thus achieving an ideal reform of explosion-proof electric heater that is more energy-saving, more environmentally friendly, and more efficient.
