FIREROD® IMMERSION HEATERS
COMPACT HEATER ENABLES VERSATILE HEATING SYSTEM DESIGN
FIREROD water immersion heaters are ideal for replacing large screw-plug immersion heaters. Because of its compact size the product can be very versatile when designed into a heating system.
These water immersion heaters come complete with a brass 3⁄4 inch National Pipe Thread (NPT) double threaded fitting, which allows you to add conduit boxes. Also, FIREROD immersion heaters are sealed at the lead end with a silicone rubber seal.
Solid copper leads, with silicone rubber sleeves, are provided for unrestricted wiring. These units are recommended for immersion in water or 90+ percent water soluble solutions.
- Nickel-chromium resistance wire precisely centered in the unit ensures even, efficient distribution of heat to the sheath
- MgO insulation compacted to the proper density results in high dielectric strength and contributes to faster heat-up

MINERAL INSULATED THERMOCOUPLES – STYLE AC – STANDARD PLUG OR JACK TERMINATION
WATLOW’S MINERAL INSULATED (MI) THERMOCOUPLES ARE FAST-RESPONDING, DURABLE AND CAPABLE OF HANDLING HIGH TEMPERATURES.
Manufactured with best-in-class XACTPAK®, Watlow’s trademark for metal sheathed, mineral insulated (MI) thermocouple material, XACTPAK responds fast because the protective metal outer sheath allows use of smaller diameter thermocouple conductors. The rock hard compacted MgO insulation further enhances the sensor’s ability to “read” temperature by transferring heat quickly to the measuring junction.
The XACTPAK protecting sheath and compacted insulation outperform bare wire thermocouples in most applications

LDH SERIES AND D SERIES DUCT HEATERS
EASILY ADAPTED TO MANY NON-PRESSURIZED AIR HEATING SYSTEMS
Watlow duct heaters are constructed of sturdy 0.430 in. (11 mm) diameter WATROD heating elements mounted to a 1⁄4 in. (6 mm) thick steel flange. These air duct heaters are easily adapted to many non-pressurized air-heating systems.
Duct heaters are easily installed in applications requiring a wide range of temperature versus air flow combinations.
The modular duct heater offers increased reliability. The individual modules are removable through the housing of the assembly, which eliminates the need to pull the complete heater from the ductwork. This reduces downtime costs because the heating elements can be replaced individually. Performance improvements include quicker response time and reduced infiltration from the air stream being heated into the electrical enclosure.
Watlow air duct heaters offer advantages over gas or oil fired and open coil electric units with:
-Installation flexibility—no flues or fuel lines
-100 percent energy efficient—no energy loss up the flue
-Universal availability of electricity
-Resistance coil in sheath is protected from corrosive environments
-Duct heaters with general purpose enclosures meet UL® and CSA component recognition to 480 and 600VAC maximum respectively—UL® and CSA file numbers are E52951 and 31388.- Long life alloy 800 sheath resists corrosion/oxidation while protecting resistance coils against contamination
- MgO insulation filled elements compacted to rock hard density maximizes dielectric strength, heat transfer and life
- Field replaceable heating elements permits easy service and reduces downtime
- General purpose terminal enclosure offers easy access to wiring
- WATROD hairpins are recompacted after bending to eliminate hot spots and electrical insulation voids

ECO-HEAT® SYSTEM
WATLOW’S ECO-HEAT SYSTEM FOR DIESEL GENERATORS UP TO 9L
Low exhaust gas temperatures (resulting from low load or low ambient conditions) can compromise the performance of your diesel generator’s aftertreatment system and eventually lead to unplanned downtime and expensive repairs. Whether your aftertreatment configuration has a DPF, an SCR or just a DOC, Watlow’s ECO-HEAT system delivers reliable electric heat that can quickly raise the exhaust gas temperature to the correct level.
Designed to be installed in the exhaust pipe, the ECO-HEAT system places heat directly where it is needed. It uses electricity from your diesel generator to operate when exhaust gas temperatures are too low. Unlike an external load bank that requires additional space and wastes heat to the surrounding environment, the ECO-HEAT system is compact and efficient. You can think of it as a smart internal load bank for your diesel generator. When you place a higher load demand on your generator, the ECO-HEAT system will shut off as the engine exhaust temperature reaches an acceptable threshold.
- Reduce fuel consumption by over 50 percent as compared to an external load bank
- Enables passive diesel particulate filter (DPF) to regenerate more effectively
- Avoid unplanned downtime and expensive service calls
- Eliminate the need for an external load bank
- Place exhaust heat exactly where it is needed

FINBAR™ SINGLE- ENDED HEATERS
DESIGNED TO IMPROVE HEAT TRANSFER TO THE AIR
Composed of aluminized steel fins press-fitted to a one-inch single-ended FIREBAR element, the FINBAR finned tubular heater is designed to improve heat transfer to the air and permits putting more power in tighter spaces—like forced air ducts, dryers, ovens and load bank resistors.
Heat transfer, lower sheath temperature and element life are all maximized by the FINBAR heater’s finned construction. Installation is simplified by terminations exiting at one end and mounting accommodations on both ends.
- Rugged aluminized steel fins increase surface area to improve heat transfer to air
- Single-ended termination simplifies wiring and installation
- Stainless steel mounting bracket for ease of installation
- Lavacone seals provides protection against humid storage conditions – moisture retardant to 221°F (105°C)

FIREBAR® SINGLE/DOUBLE-ENDED HEATERS
FIREBAR heating elements provide added heating performance over standard round tubular heating elements—especially for immersion applications in petroleum-based liquids requiring high kilowatts.
The FIREBAR’s unique flat surface geometry packs more power in shorter elements and assemblies, along with a host of other performance improvements. These include:
-Minimizing coking and fluid degrading
-Enhancing the flow of fluid past the element’s surface to carry heat from the sheath
-Improving heat transfer with a significantly larger boundary layer allowing much more liquid to flow up and across the sheath’s surface
FIREBAR elements are available in single- and double-ended constructions with one inch or 5⁄8 inch heights. These two configuration variables make it possible to use FIREBAR elements instead of round tubular elements in virtually all applications.FINBAR is a special version of the one inch, single-ended FIREBAR. FINBAR is specially modified with fins to further increase surface area for air and gas heating applications.
- 70 percent greater surface area per linear inch compared to a 0.430 in. (11 mm) diameter round tubular heater
- Compacted MgO insulation maximizes thermal conductivity and dielectric strength
- Precision wound nickel-chromium resistance wires
- 0.040 in. (1 mm) thick MgO walls transfer heat more efficiently
- Three resistance coil design readily adapts to a variety of electrical sources and wattages outputs

FIREROD® CARTRIDGE HEATERS
FIREROD CARTRIDGE HEATERS ARE THE PREMIER CHOICE IN SWAGED CARTRIDGE HEATING
The FIREROD cartridge heater revolutionized the heating element industry in 1954 when it was patented as the first swaged cartridge heater. The mechanical procedure of swaging reduces the diameter of the heater by compacting the unit; this directly improves the heat transfer and efficiency of the heater.
FIREROD cartridge heaters are built using only the finest materials and construction methods and are backed with extensive quality assurance programs. With premium materials and tight manufacturing controls, the FIREROD heater provides superior heat transfer, uniform temperatures, resistance to oxidation and corrosion and a long life even at high temperatures.
FIREROD offers many delivery programs to meet your needs.
- Nickel chromium resistance wire ensures even, efficient distribution of heat to sheath
- Magnesium oxide insulation of specific grain and purity results in high dielectric strength and faster heat-up
- Alloy 800 sheath resists oxidation and corrosion from many chemicals, heat and atmospheres
- Minimal spacing between element wire and sheath results in lower internal temperatures and accommodates design with fewer or smaller heaters
- UL® and CSA approved flexible stranded wires with lead insulation rated to temperatures of 480°F (250°C)
