A water bath heater is an indirect heating system used to heat gaseous or liquid media in a controlled and safe manner. In this system, a burner heats a water bath, which in turn transfers heat to a process coil carrying the medium to be heated. This indirect method ensures uniform temperature distribution and prevents local overheating.
AURA water bath heaters are designed for high operational safety, reliability and precise temperature control, making them ideal for sensitive media and demanding industrial environments.
In a water bath heater, a burner generates heat, which is transferred to a water-filled vessel. Inside this vessel, a heat exchanger coil is installed through which the medium to be heated flows. The heated medium transfers thermal energy to the medium via the coil. The water acts as a buffer and temperature stabilizer, ensuring consistent operating conditions and preventing thermal stress on the process medium.
During pressure reduction, the temperature drops significantly. Without preheating, this canlead to icing and operational malfunktions.
Gaseous media such as natural gas as well as various liquid media.
Very safe, due to indirect heat transfer, the process medium does not come into contact with the flame.
From smaller preheating applications up to large-scale systems with heating capacities of up to 10MW.
Yes, the design can be implemented in accordance with the requirements of explosion-risk areas.
Yes, AURA water bath heaters are precisely tailored to pressure, temperature, medium and site-specific conditions.
Yes, their robust design and proven technology make them particularly suitable for offshore applications.
