Electric Immersion Heater use began in the metal plating industry during the 1930s, around the same time the Model T-Ford was becoming commonplace in America.
Like those early cars, the first electric immersion heaters lacked safety features that protect against accidents. In the years since, safety features have been added to immersion heaters which make them an efficient and safe way to heat chemical baths when operated properly.
Check out the latest issue of Finishing & Coating magazine for Heatmax’s expert tips on safe operation of immersion heaters. One of these tips may save your shop from a preventable accident.
All of Heatmax’ heaters come with the thermal protectors and are UL-Listed, meaning they meet regulatory and safety requirements. For more information on heater safety or Heatmax products reach out to one of our professionals.
