Large Tank Heaters
![]() |
Our Tank Heating Systems are uniquely designed to heat large storage tanks located above or below ground and containing highly viscous fluids or heat sensitive materials. We offer uniquely designed electric heating systems for large storage tanks. The systems can be installed in above or below-ground tanks made of steel, concrete, or fiberglass. |

Open Coil Element (OCE) Pipe Insert Large Tank Heaters
![]() |
OCE open coil element large-tank electric heaters installed inside 2- or 3-inch Schedule 40 NPS pipe provide uniform heat over a large surface area. This method of indirect heating lowers the watt density or heat flux on the surface area of the pipe in contact with the heated media, reducing the tendency to coke or break down heat-sensitive materials. |
Flexible Tank Heaters
![]() |
Flexible tank heaters provide low-watt-density heating for viscous materials such as asphalt, fuel oil, pitch and tar, liquid sugar, molasses, lube oils, linseed oil, and other heat-sensitive materials. These flexible heaters are particularly useful for storage tanks that are underground or when the tank ends are inaccessible for installation of more conventional heaters. They can be installed through the normal manhole opening of many large tanks above or below ground without requiring modification to the tank itself. |
Unitary Immersion Heaters
![]() |
RSTO and RST unitary electric immersion systems provide low-watt density heating for viscous materials such as asphalt, fuel oil, pitch and tar, liquid sugar, molasses, lube oils, linseed oil, and other heat-sensitive materials. They can be installed in above-ground tanks and in below-ground tanks with access to one tank end. Model RSTO systems are recommended for cramped locations and the RST model features metal-sheathed heating elements in place of the open coil elements. |
MCC Control Center
![]() |
An optional NEMA 4 weatherproof or NEMA 12 oil- and dust-tight electrical control center is available completely wired with indicating electronic process control, fail-safe overtemperature controls, master circuit breaker, contactors, fuses, pilot lights, switches, and control transformer. Other control options include digital chart recorders, timers, and audible alarm. One control center can control multiple heaters in the same tank. The control center is mounted remotely on mounting legs or with vertical wall-mounted brackets and hasp and staple for padlocking. |
Suction Heaters – Asphalt & Fuel Oil Application
![]() |
Heating of viscous materials, in large storage tanks, to pumping temperatures. Maintaining an entire tank of viscous fluids such as fuel oil or asphalt at pumping temperatures is very costly. In many applications it is not pratical or economical because the tanks are located underground or are not insulated. |
