Electricity Delivers Value for Pizza Ovens
With recent disruptions in gas supply, health concerns over outgassing, and the move away from fossil fuels, electrification of pizza ovens has become more desirable.
Coffee Roasters Savors the Benefits of Electrification
Using our line of Flow Torch™ heaters, which are highly efficient and ideal for heating large airflows, we were able to electrify this large coffee roasting process.
Warming / Holding Cabinets and Heaters
Food industry professionals seek finer temperature and moisture control in their holding equipment. They want longer hold times while maintaining food quality and safety.
Crossflow Blower Heater
Developed for maximum design flexibility, Crossflow Blower Heaters (CB Series) utilize multi-purpose mounting brackets attaching directly to the exhaust of a crossflow blower.
Warming Cabinet Story
We asked a current customer if he had any issues with other projects we could help with. As it turns out he was having dramatic failures on a platform that was using a competitors heater of another style...
We asked a current customer if he had any issues with other projects we could help with. As it turns out he was having dramatic failures on a platform that was using a heater from our competition of another style of open coil heat. Calculations showed us our competition was using a much higher watt density then we would advise. By switching to our CB style heater we were able to fit more wire in the same area and lower his watt density; lowering coil temperature and extending heater life thus avoiding the dramatic failures.
Axial Fan Heaters
This heater mounts directly to square axial fans. It integrates a guard and optional over-temperature protection. Available with or without a blower. They are ideal for a wide range of drying, curing, and warming applications.
Custom Heating Element for Food Service Cooker
