Process air heaters are robust hot air components used in industrial and commercial processes. Each heater is designed to work within a range of airflows and air pressures. Generally speaking, Heat Torches are low-flow high-pressure air heaters. Flow Torches are high-flow low-pressure air heaters. Applications include drying, curing, melting, cutting, baking, heat shrinking, de-soldering, metallization, heat staking, sterilization, air scrubbing, laminating, adhesive activation, hot air curtains, and air knives.
Tutco-Farnam has designed over 2,000 different custom air heaters used in factories and OEM equipment around the world. Durability, long life, rapid response time, and efficient heat transfer are goals of the heater design engineer. Our line of pre-designed process air heating solutions evolved from our custom design experience. Over time, we found that some solutions were easily adaptable to a variety of heating applications. Pre-designed solutions are customizable and made to order, so they may not be available for next-day delivery.
Our primary objective is to ensure that each of our heaters delivers optimal performance. To achieve this goal, we have developed a line of control panels specifically engineered for the heaters we manufacture. The result is a heating system that provides safe, precise, and reliable heat tailored to the unique requirements of your application. Check more info about control panels.
Farnam Heat Torch™ inline air heaters are ideal for rapidly heating air. Industrial strength open coil heaters provide efficient heat transfer through direct heating element contact with the airflow.
Our highly efficient Cool Touch™ option minimizes the skin temperature of the heater and helps protect people and products from hot surfaces. Efficient design reduces heat loss.
Flow Torch™ heaters are highly efficient and ideal for heating large airflows. Farnam is developing several graduated sizes of this basic platform. This family of heaters is offered as a standard product with several options.
Pressure Torch™ heaters are highly efficient and ideal for heating large airflows. Farnam is developing several graduated sizes of this basic platform. This family of heaters is offered as a standard product with pressure (up to 150PSI) blowers
Our rugged, efficient, open coil Duct Heaters offer you the capability to heat large volumes of air with fast warm-ups and cool-downs.
