Heavy Industry/Mining

Heavy industry is characterized as manufacturing operations requiring large machines. Often these operations are related to metal processing, foundries, mining, or other enterprises that are classified as hazardous environments. BriskHeat hazardous-area blankets, cables, and controllers can be used in the harshest environments where dust and combustible gases may be present. Heaters are used to keep batteries warm for quick starting of machines. Self-regulating cable is often used for freeze protection and viscosity reduction of process fluids and lubricating oils. High-temperature heaters mounted to conveyor systems are used for removing moisture from ore. Outdoor controllers are built rugged to resist vibration.

APPLICATIONS

FREEZE PROTECTION FOR PIPES

Animal owners such as farmers and ranchers need to make sure their animals, which often spend a considerable amount of time outdoors, have water to drink.

FREEZE PROTECTION FOR TANKS AND VESSELS

There are several types of viscous materials like grease, wax, and honey that are stored in drums and pails. These types of materials are thick at room temperature, making flow difficult during pouring, dipping, pumping, coating or mixing operations. Use BriskHeat Drum and Pail Heaters to help reduce the viscosity levels in containers.

FREEZE PROTECTION FOR CONTROL PANELS

Electronic components inside control panels and monitoring devices need protected from cold temperatures. Control panels are often located outdoors and if exposed to sub freezing temperatures, components could fail to operate properly and potentially become permanently damaged.

IBC / TOTE WARMING

Users of Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBC) often need to raise the temperature to reduce viscosity or protect the contents from the cold. Maintaining an elevated temperature ensures materials remain ready for production and easy to dispense.

EMERGENCY DE-ICING AND FREEZE PROTECTION

The cold weather can wreak havoc on exposed valves, pumps, pipes, bearings, filter housing, and other industrial objects.

PRE-HEATING AND WELDING STEEL

When TIG welding thick steel materials, cracking and weld failures can occur due to the extreme thermal stresses imposed by rapid cooling at the weld point. Preheating prior to welding is done to slow the cooling process and reduce the potential for weld failure.
