If these stock heaters do not fit your needs, so alternatively we can supply bespoke heaters to suit, usually within a 2 week timeframe. If youare really desperate, you can pay a premium, circa 50%ish,  to jump the queue and get them in a coupla days.

For an explanation of watt density, have a look here.

Basically, for oil heaters our target is to get the watts density down to 12w/in² or below for heavy, industrial oils, and 25w/in² or below for lighter cooking/thermal transfer oils.

So, this 3kW Oil Immersion Heater at 23w/in² is appropriate for light oils.

Plan B?

If other power ratings or immersed length are required, then we can sometimes do creative things with our Industrial Immersion Heaters for water, by reconfiguring from Delta to 4 Wire Star, or even putting elements in series, thus reducing the power output and watt density accordingly. If we put two elements in series, it reduces power/watt density by a factor of 4. Three elements in series reduces by a factor of 9. Thus, a 27kW Three Phase Water Heater could become a 3kW oil heater with a lovely low watt density. Likely to be low enough for even heavy oils.

Creativity is one of my many middle names, so Call Jamie on 07897 246 779 to discuss your needs.
