Electric Duct Heaters

REART’s electric duct heaters utilize finned heating elements to enhance thermal exchange between the heater and the gas to be heated.

For high-temperature applications, smooth elements are used instead, forming the heating assembly of the electric duct heater.

Duct heaters are designed using advanced thermodynamic software, capable of determining operating parameters based on the client’s specific needs. The main defined parameters include:

• Electrical power output needed for heating
• Pressure drop during the process
• Surface load or specific power
• Maximum surface temperature of the heating element
• Fluid flow rate inside the heater passage section
• Electric duct heater dimensions and building materials
• Operating conditions under standard working environments

The electric duct heaters, designed to be installed in square or rectangular ducting, pipelines or stacked for industrial furnaces, are in direct contact with the process gas to be heated.

At high operating temperatures, the electrical part of the enclosure is positioned away from the process to ensure optimal performance and prevent malfunctions.

Safety

Duct heaters are equipped with integrated safety systems:
• Thermal sensors
• Thermostats
• Thermocouples or resistance temperature detectors (RTDs)
to prevent overheating and ensure safe operation.

Accessories

Reco provides, along with the frame, customised connection hoods to seamlessly integrate the duct heater into the client’s process section. The electric duct heaters can be delivered skid-mounted and equipped with a control and power panel.
