HBD Base Drum Heater0 pages

Technical Datasheet

Type HBD Drum Heaters
Applications:
The HBD heater is specifically designed for melting or reducing
the viscosity of soaps, fats, waxes, varnishes and oil based type
of products. The diameter of the base enables use on all sizes
of drums up to 45 gallons (200 Lt). Heat is provided by a 900W
silicone rubber insulated heater mat, providing an even
distribution of heat to the base.
If a rapid heat up is required or solid mediums are involved
requiring higher power input, side drum heaters can be used in
conjunction with the HBD; alternatively a thermally insulated
jacket can be used.

Construction:
l Even heat over the platen area
l 0 to 150°C Thermostat

l Robust Steel Construction

l High Temperature Tolerances
l Armoured Supply Cable
l 110v or 230v Options
l IP40 Protection

Manufactured from 2mm thick mild steel for extra rigidity on
uneven surfaces with tapered edges for safe ease of drum
location and is protected by a resilient high temperature coating.
Temperature adjustment is via a rear aperture in the control unit,
with neons indicating power on and load switching viewed
through a window in the control unit top.
Heat is supplied via a silicone insulated etched foil heater giving
a uniform temperature across the platen face. Insulated with
50mm of high density rock wool, heat transference to the base is
minimal.

Health and Safety:
The HBD Base drum heater is manufactured to conform to the
EEC low voltage and EMC directives and CE marked accordingly.
It is advised that power to the heater be disconnected when the
container is either empty or being filled, or upon installation or
removal of the drum. It is recommended that the unit be operated in
a dry environment with the container vented to avoid build up of
internal pressure.
