FP-MLH Flameproof Mini Line Heaters
The range of flameproof mini line heaters consist of a screw plug or flanged type immersion heater mounted in a thermally insulated heating vessel, and is designed to efficiently transfer heat to a flowing medium (liquid, air or gas). The FP-MLH range is certified for use in hazardous areas where the atmosphere is classified as a Zone 1 or 2 (IIA, IIB, IIC) gas group.
