Thermal Fluid Heating Systems
A Wide Range of Applications
Struthers Wells is a major supplier of circulating thermal fluid heating systems, with about 1,000 installations over the past 40 years. These systems are designed to provide high-temperature heat at relatively low pressures to a wide variety of process users such as heat exchangers, reboilers, kettles, autoclaves, calciners, dryers, and synthetic fiber extrusion presses.
Struthers Wells has provided heaters for every heat transfer fluid type available, ranging from mineral oils at lower temperatures, to synthetic fluids at elevated temperatures (Dowtherm®, Therminol®, Syltherm®, and others), to inorganic fluids such as molten salt and liquid metals for the highest temperature applications.
An Optimum Heat Type for Every Application
At Struthers Wells we offer a wide range of heater types, so you can be assured that the thermal fluid heater we propose will be the best choice for the application, not merely the type we can fabricate at the least cost. We offer the following types of heaters:
