Our Tubular Heaters will be discontinued due to electrical compliance. Final orders will be accepted until 31st March 2025, subject to demand and material availability. All units must be sold to end users before the 16th June 2025. We are actively developing an alternative solution so keep an eye on the website for future updates.

Drum Heating Jackets with Digital Control

Drum heating jackets are specifically designed to gently warm the contents of drums to reduce the viscosity of products or melt solids. These versatile jackets are fitted with a compact digital temperature controller, providing easy to use and precise temperature control.

Features and benefits

  • Drum heating jackets are available to suit 25, 50, 105 and 200 L drums.
  • The large surface area of the heating jackets ensures maximum uptake of heat, and the insulation layer greatly reduces heat losses.
  • The digital temperature controller provides control from 0-90 ºC, allowing you to maintain an optimum temperature for your product.
  • Approximate warm-up duration is 24 hours to raise 200 litres of water from +15  ºC to +80  ºC with a 1200 W drum heater.

Construction

  • Durable Teflon coated polyester outer.
  • Efficient polyester insulation.
  • High temperature silicone heating cable.
  • Easy quick-release buckles.
  • Durable polycarbonate enclosed digital controller.
  • Two metre power cord and moulded 3-pin AS/NZ plug.

Important Considerations

Not for use with cardboard drums or totes:

Our heater jackets are designed for usage with metal and HDPE plastic 200L drums. Our jackets can only be used with carboard drums in emergency melt-out situations and at temperatures below 65°C. This is due to their high level of thermal insulation.

Use low temperature when heating beef tallow and other viscous products:

When heating beef tallow or similar viscous products, never set the digital controller above 80°C.
Products that absorb heat very slowly can lead to elevated drum temperatures, resulting in similar risks seen with cardboard IBCs. Setting higher temperatures increases the chance of blowing thermal safety fuses.
For best results, use our 1.2kW Heater Jacket (DH121) set to 80°C or below. Remember, effective warm-up comes from higher wattage applied safely, not higher set temperatures.

Applications

Typically used for:

  • Reducing the viscosity of greases, fats, and oils.
  • Heating chemicals, paints, and adhesives.
  • Warming syrups such as honey, while protecting the beneficial components of the product.
  • Warming cosmetic or chemical ingredients to an optimum temperature for production processes.
