Applications

Copper Sheath: Clean Water, freeze protection, hot water storage, boiler and
water heaters, cooling towers, heating of solutions not corrosive to copper
Stainless Steel Sheath: Process water, soap and detergent solutions, soluble
cutting oils, demineralized or deionized water (passivation recommended)
Incoloy Sheath: Solution water, corrosive solutions, steam super heating, air or gas
Steel Sheath: Asphalt, wax, paraffin, tar, fluid heat transfer medium, petroleum,
degreasing and solvent oils, machine oil, fuel oils, alcohol

Be certain that the sheath material and watt density selected are compatible with the material being heated and the operating temperature.
