Description

APPLICATIONS
Steam, Air and Gas: Higher kW ratings for larger industrial and commercial gas heating applications.

FEATURES Terminal Enclosure: E1 General Purpose is standard. E2 Moisture Resistant/Explosion Resistant, E3 Explosion Resistant or E4 Moisture Resistant available.
Elements: 0.475" diameter INCOLOY sheath elements.
Flange: 3 -10" ANSI B-16.5 flange with 1/2" thermowell for thermostat bulb and a 1/8" NPT threaded opening for a thermocouple or RTD.

Vessel: Pipe body and nozzles are ASTM A53B carbon steel pipe. The end disk is ASTM A516 Grade 70 carbon steel plate. Provided with thermal insulation and painted sheet metal jacket.
Baffle Assembly: Internal baffle assemblies are provided on GCHIB-18 models. Baffles reduce the internal cross sectional area thereby increasing the velocity of the gas. Increasing the gas velocity reduces the operating temperature of the elements and the shell of the vessel.
Wiring: Convenient field wiring terminals are provided for easy installation.
Controls: Series 03 and 06 stock and assembly stock heaters come equipped with side mounted thermostat. Series 18, 27, 45 and 108 are furnished without thermostat.

1. Recommended temperature limits for all GCH heaters with carbon steel vessels and INCOLOY elements are 1600oF maximum for the sheath temperature and 750°F maximum for the vessel temperature at 5 psi pressure maximum. Exceeding these recommendations will void the factory warranty. Outlet gas temperatures must be kept below both the maximum sheath and vessel temperature or element and vessel damage may occur. Heaters supplied without controls.
Other Note — Refer to the Controls section for side mounted controls or control panels.
