The operation of electric heaters and heavy oil heaters is different

Electric heaters and heavy oil heaters have different operating procedures, which must be strictly adhered to to ensure their full effectiveness.

Before operating an electric heater, thorough preparation is required. This includes checking the instrumentation in the level gauge, explosion-proof junction box, and control cabinet for any issues. If any, they must be promptly addressed to prevent damage to the heater. During wiring, the heater and explosion-proof junction box must be reliably grounded to eliminate safety hazards. The heater should not be used when no fluid is flowing to avoid burnout. Furthermore, the operating parameters of the equipment should not be arbitrarily modified to avoid potential problems.

If an electric heater is not in use for an extended period, all circuit breakers should be disconnected and the heater properly stored. After the heater is shut down, it should be cooled to prevent damage from overheating before cleaning and storage can be performed.

A heavy oil heater is an energy-saving device that preheats or reheats fuel oil. Installed before the combustion equipment, it heats the fuel oil before combustion, reducing its viscosity at high temperatures and promoting adequate atomization and combustion, ultimately saving energy.
