IBC Container Heater, 3 Thermostats

When at room temperature, many materials often become viscous, which makes them harder to discharge from an IBC (Intermediate Bulk Container). In specific syrup, sugar, fats and others are difficult to discharge and often result in wasting products due to the thick viscosity not being able to leave the container.

This can end up being an expensive process unless you heat the (IBC) container first to make materials smoother and less viscous.

An IBC heating jacket is the perfect solution when it comes to quickly and effectively heating up fluids and materials, making them straightforward to empty from a container with minimal to no waste product.

The IBC heater is produced with either 1, 2 or 3 thermostats, all adjustable from 0 to 90 °C, making the container heater very fast and safe to heat liquids and maintaining the wanted viscosity for the content in the container.

The IBC heater jacket is designed in a durable and long-lasting high quality lightweight design and the construction together with quick release buckles makes the container heater easy to attach to any standard 1000L container.

This also makes this heater perfect to use when transporting 1000L containers with content that requires specific temperatures or viscosity.

TIP! For a faster and optimal heating process, we recommend using the IBC insulated lid (sold separately). The lid easily attaches to the top of the container, reducing waste of heat.(Shown above)

Container heating jackets are an ideal supplement to container heating cabinets, where the jacket is mounted to a single container. The container heating jackets can also be used with heating cabinets or heating ovens, making transportation of a heated container much easier and the heat loss minimal to none.

The container heater can be used to heat a variety of liquids, e.g. water, resin, oil, diesel fuel and many other industrial liquids and allows them to be poured or pumped with ease.

IBC Silicone Base Heater

An IBC silicone base heater is an effective and powerful way to heat up contents inside an IBC container.

The base heater is perfect for heating viscous or semi-solid products and making them straightforward to discharge from a container with minimal to no waste product.

The 2700W base heater can heat e.g. water in a fully loaded IBC container from 15 °C to 70 °C in less than 40 hours. If a faster heating process is required, we recommend adding an IBC insulation jacket to the process.

Silicone Base Heaters are produced in highly durable and long-lasting silicone materials that easily can withstand the weight of a fully loaded IBC Container. The base heater fits a variety of intermediate bulk containers (IBC containers) including IBC containers from Schütz, GNX, Mauser, Werit and Greif.

The silicone base heater is easy to install and to use - simply remove the bulk container from the IBC frame and install the silicone heater in the very bottom of the frame. Insert the container on top of the heater, fill the container, and you are all set to heat the contents. This also makes the heater ideal for heating and maintaining temperature while transporting the IBC container.

The IBC silicone base heater can be mounted with an adjustable digital temperature controller for safe and precise temperature controlling.
