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
- Alloy 800 sheath resists corrosion from water
- Metallurgically-bonded conductor pins for trouble-free electrical continuity
- 240 and 480VAC voltage allows flexibility in wiring the heater for use in your particular applications

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

MILLED GROOVE TUBULAR HEATERS
PRECISION FORMED TO YOUR HOT RUNNER MOLD APPLICATIONS
WATROD milled groove heaters are precision-formed and customized to your hot runner mold application. Even tight radius bends of 0.250 inch maintaining tolerances of ±0.062 to ±0.002 inch are possible. This capability not only allows you freedom to design for the optimum uniform heating pattern for your plastics process, but also guarantees quick and easy installation.
Simply send your groove dimensions in a detailed drawing or on CAD file. Depending on the formation requirements, the resulting CAD design will be transferred to either Watlow’s CNC bending equipment or a highly skilled bending operator.
A variety of sheath materials are available including alloy 800, 304 stainless steel and 316 stainless steel, each offering unique advantages of long life in high temperature molds, rigidity to maintain shape during shipment and corrosion resistance.
Watlow not only delivers the heat fast to the process with efficient heat transfer, but guarantees the heater’s fast delivery, too. While Watlow guarantees standard delivery within three to four weeks, tough delivery schedules are Watlow’s specialty.
- Precise conformity to customer specifications ensures easy installation
- Alloy 800 sheath material are corrosion resistant and capable in high-temperature environments
- 304 stainless steel features excellent pliability – best choice for small bend radii
- Superior resistance coil design produces even heating
- Threaded stud or lead wire termination as required provides robust options for challenging environments

MINERAL INSULATED NOZZLE HEATERS
FEATURING WATLOW’S EXCLUSIVE MINERAL INSULATION (MI) TECHNOLOGY
The MI nozzle heater from Watlow is a high-performance heater. The nozzle heater’s performance and name are derived from Watlow’s exclusive mineral insulation—a material with a much higher thermal conductivity than mica and hard ceramic insulators used in conventional heaters.
A thin layer of the “high” thermal conductive MI material is used to electrically insulate the element wire from the inside diameter of the heater sheath. A thicker, “low” thermal conductivity layer backs up the element wire, directing the heat inward toward the heated part. The result is more efficient heat transfer—a performance solution lowering element wire temperatures and increasing heater life.

MINERAL INSULATED STRIP HEATERS
THIN, RESPONSIVE HEATER SETS STANDARDS FOR PERFORMANCE AND DURABILITY
The MI strip heater is a thin, responsive heater that uses the most advanced heater construction techniques. A nickel-chromium element wire is embedded in Watlow’s exclusive mineral insulation material, which has a much higher thermal conductivity than the mica and hard ceramic insulators used in conventional heaters. This thin layer of insulation brings the element wire closer to the heater sheath. The result is heat flows easily from the element wire to the sheath allowing the wire to run cooler than conventional heaters and increasing heater life.
