Tank Heating

Electrical Heat Tracing made by eltherm is employed to maintain exact temperatures when transporting temperature-sensitive chemicals in Tank Containers, SWAP Containers, Road Tankers and IBC’s (Intermediate Bulk Containers). Temperature maintenance is required for substances such as MDI, highly viscous industry materials, oils, resins, fat, coatings, bitumen, adhesives, foods and casting compounds.

Control Accuracy for Precise Temperatures
A special assembly technique for EHT on Tank Containers developed by eltherm engineers plus reliable monitoring and control ensures uniform temperature accuracy across the entire tank surface. It is resistant to vibration impact and thus designed for reliable operation. Apart from the Tank Container itself, the EHT system takes account of outlets, riser pies, including insulating sleeves for valves and ball taps.
