Watlow FIREBAR® Clamp-On Heaters
Overview
The FIREBAR® clamp-on heater's unique flat surface geometry packs more power in shorter elements and assemblies, along with a host of other performance improvements.
These include:
FIREBAR® elements are available in single- and double-ended constructions with one inch or 5⁄8 inch heights. These two configuration variables make it possible to use FIREBAR® clamp-on heater elements instead of round tubular elements in virtually all applications.
These include:
- Minimizing coking and fluid degrading
- Enhancing the flow of fluid past the element's surface to carry heat from the sheath
- Improving heat transfer with a significantly larger boundary layer allowing much more liquid to flow up and across the sheath's surface

Features & Benefits
- 70 percent greater surface area per linear inch compared to a 0.430 in. (11 mm) diameter round tubular heater.
- Compacted MgO insulation maximizes thermal conductivity and dielectric strength.
- Precision wound nickel-chromium resistance wires.
- 0.040 in. (1 mm) thick MgO walls transfer heat more efficiently.
- Three resistance coil design readily adapts to a variety of electrical sources and wattages outputs.
