Thermal oil systems for high-temperature indirect process heat
Thermal oil can provide stable high-temperature heat transfer without using high-pressure steam at every process point. Scoping must consider oil type, heat duty, flow, expansion, pumps, controls and safety protections.
Typical applications
- High-temperature indirect heating
- Food, chemical and process lines
- Heat exchangers and skid packages
- Systems needing controlled heat transfer fluid circulation
Specification snapshot
