Characteristics of electric heating rods and precautions for boiling water
Leave a message
Explosion-proof electric heating rods (hereinafter referred to as "electric heating rods") are designed and manufactured specifically for electric heating and insulation of containers such as storage tanks. For a long time, heating and insulation of the medium in storage tanks has primarily been achieved using coil-type heaters that use steam or hot water as the heat medium. These coil-type heaters have been associated with high malfunction rates, difficulty in maintenance, and high energy consumption.
Features of Electric Heating Rods:
1. They are sturdy, have high bending strength, are compact, sealed, and explosion-proof, making them suitable for heating and insulation of various types of tanks storing petroleum and its products.
2. They provide uniform heat generation, low surface heat load, and a long service life. They have no reactive power loss, high thermal efficiency, and are easy to operate and maintain, requiring no daily maintenance.
3. Heating rods can be replaced or repaired without removing the medium from the container.
4. DBRL series electric heating rods do not require a hole in the tank and can be installed through a manhole.
Precautions for safe use of electric heaters:
1. When boiling water, make sure the water has soaked the heater.
2. Always heat the water in a non-conductive container.
3. Avoid contact with the water while boiling, as it carries electricity.
4. Do not remove the heater immediately after boiling, as the heating element may not have cooled down, which can be harmful to the heater.
5. When using an electric heater, it is best to charge it immediately so that you can disconnect it immediately after boiling.
6. Pay attention to the intervals between uses to prevent the heater from bursting.
7. After use, clean the heater with vinegar and a wire brush after it has cooled down.
8. Ensure the power supply is stable.
9. After each use, wipe the heater dry with a dry cloth to prepare for the next use.
