Uniflux Offshore Production Heater

Uniflux ® heaters have provided safe single source heat transfer fluid heating for offshore platform oil and gas production since 1965.  Heat transfer fluids are usually glycol/water, Ambitrol, or synthetic fluids such as Therminol and Dowtherm.  The Uniflux ® heater is ideal for this application because its compact footprint requires a minimal amount of area on the platform.

The low flux rate convection heat transfer extends the life of the heat transfer coil to provide a durable heater that will operate for the life of the platform.  A complete corrosion resistant fuel train and control system is assembled to the heater that is designed and built to meet the customer's specifications.  A PLC is supplied that interfaces with the customer's DCS system.  The heater meets offshore codes such as API RP14C and API RP14E, as well as NFPA 70 for hazardous areas.
