The Serpentine Triple Pass
Heaters are designed to
provide a controllable, high-temperature source of hot air.
Offered in two sizes, the
Serpentine II is available with
replaceable heating elements
rated at up to 3.6 kW, and the
Serpentine VI up to 6.0 kW.  
The Serpentine Triple Pass
Heaters are capable of
producing extremely high exit
air/inert gas temperatures, up
to 1200°F (650°C) with
standard heating elements,
and as high as 1500°F (815°C)
with the "Two-Stage" heating
elements. Low thermal mass
results in an extremely fast
response heater, taking only
6 seconds to reach peak
operating temperatures. With
control systems available from
OSRAM SYLVANIA,
exit temperatures can be con-trolled
to ±2°F. |
The unique design of the
triple-pass heat exchange
housing uses the incoming air
to cool the outer shell prior to
directing it over the Serpentine
Heating Element. Radiant heat
losses are eliminated and
installation design and opera-tor
safety are simplified.
The replaceable Serpentine
Heating Elements allow for
quick changeovers, minimizing
down-time.
