Drum base heater ATEX for 200 l drums, 120 °C, 1100 W, T2

Description

Our ATEX Drum Base Heater for 200 l Drums is the ideal solution for safely maintaining the temperature of media in hazardous areas. The base heater complies with the stringent requirements of ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU and is perfectly suited for use in chemical plants, refineries, and various other industrial sectors where maximum safety is essential.

Thanks to innovative self-regulating heating cable technology, the base heater automatically adjusts its output, ensuring uniform heat distribution without the risk of overheating. An integrated digital thermostat allows for precise temperature control, supporting safe processes even with sensitive materials.

With protection class IP66, the ATEX drum base heater is highly resistant to dust and water – ideal for outdoor use and harsh environments. Conductive castors ensure easy handling and maximum flexibility at the point of use.
