RS PRO Fibreglass Polyester Side Drum Heater, 200 L Capacity, 230 V, 1.2 kW Power, 800 x 1950 mm, IP40, Model 179-9551

RS PRO 179-9551 Fibreglass Polyester Side Drum Heater is engineered for industrial and commercial heating applications requiring precise temperature control for 200 L steel drums. Operating at 230 V with a 1.2 kW power rating, this heater efficiently maintains oils, greases, and fluids at optimal viscosity even in cold climates, preventing freezing and facilitating smooth pouring and pumping processes.

The heater jacket is made from flame-retardant polyester fabric coated with polyurethane for enhanced safety. Inside, a high-quality fibreglass insulation blanket resists heat and mechanical wear, while the spiral-wound resistance wire heating element on a glass core with silicone extruded insulation ensures uniform heat distribution across the surface area. Temperature is regulated with a built-in, user-adjustable thermostat to suit various operational requirements.

The device features quick-release buckles for simple attachment and removal. Its physical dimensions (800 mm width and 1.95 m length) are designed to snugly fit standard 200 L steel drums, providing reliable and efficient heating solutions in industrial, laboratory, manufacturing, fluid power, and storage applications.

Constructed with a flame-retardant polyester fabric jacket for enhanced safety. Built-in thermostat allows easy adjustment of temperature between 0 and 90°C. Fibreglass insulation provides thermal resistance and durability.

Even heat distribution thanks to the spiral-wound resistance wire heating element. Quick-release buckles enable fast fitting and removal. Suitable for maintaining fluid viscosity and preventing freezing in cold environments.

IP40 rating ensures protection against objects greater than 1 mm. Dimensions of 800 mm width by 1950 mm length fit standard 200 L drums.

This RS PRO drum heater is manufactured in the United Kingdom to meet rigorous quality standards. It is ideal for industrial, manufacturing, fluid power, and storage applications requiring reliable drum heating and fluid temperature maintenance.
