Tank push-in preheaters are mainly designed for heating heavy fuel oil and other liquid fuels directly in the tank.
The tank push-in preheaters are used to heat the fluid in the tank at the tap so that it is not necessary to keep the complete tank volume to temperature. Rather, the tapped heavy oil and the immediate vicinity is heated, minimizing the losses.
heatsystems tank push-in preheaters are available with or without a tap connection. The tap connection design mixes the returning fuel directly at the tap, minimizing the energies required for preheating by this as well. Nevertheless, degassing of the fuel is ensured.
or example, these fluids are heated in tank push-in preheaters:
I. Fuels
Heavy oil, not pumpable in a cold condition, maximum surface load between 1 and 2 W/cm² depending on the quality
Fuel oil, diesel, heating to max. 40 °C, max. surface load approx. 4 W/cm²
Animal fats require a corrosion-resistant design
Used oil requires an explosion-protected design in most cases.
