Aquarius
The Aquarius® Deionized (DI) Water Heater is the perfect solution for high purity DI Water heating applications where accurate temperature control is required. The Power-to-Flow Control® feature found in the Aquarius provides one of the most accurate temperature controls available in a DI water heating system, and eliminates undesirable overshoots or drops in temperature due to inadequate PID controllers. The Aquarius system is engineered to deliver high flows of continuous, at-temperature, hot DI water. With models from 40kW to 200kW available, the Aquarius system provides an operational cost savings by reducing the need for multiple immersion heaters.
For semiconductor, solar, MEMS manufacturing, and other industries requiring the most exacting standards of purity, Heateflex offers a line of PVDF & PFA ultra-pure in-line fluid heaters. These heaters are ideal for heating deionized water, acids, and less aggressive process chemistries (depending on the model). Moreover, the heater is appropriate for recirculation and point-of-use fluid heating applications. Furthermore, the small footprint results in lower space requirements, and it is easy to integrate these heaters into current systems. Available in 1-30 kW, and in worldwide voltages. At the heart of our PVDF & PFA in-line fluid heaters is the patented Heateflex® heating coil, which provides the maximum power output in the smallest possible package. In addition, a low watt density...
Vesper series of PVDF/PFA heat exchangers offer a variety of solutions for heating, cooling, and temperature trimming of fluids used in ultra-pure manufacturing processes. Vesper models are ideal for heating and cooling deionized water, solvents, and Piranha/SC1, among other fluids. Moreover, all Vesper heat exchangers feature the efficient and patented Heateflex heating coil. Furthermore, these heaters come either as standalone heat exchangers, or as an integrated heater/heat exchanger. Models are available in 2 kW to 5 kW. High-purity polypropylene, PVDF, or PFA are used to construct the Vesper’s heater housing. The heat exchanger tube bundles are PVDF/PFA to ensure chemical compatibility. all Vesper models feature a compact design, with the maximum heating surface...
