High-Performance Oil Circulation Heaters for Industrial Process Efficiency

Oil circulation heaters are essential for maintaining optimal oil temperatures in a variety of industrial applications—from lubrication systems and hydraulic equipment to heat transfer processes in chemical plants and refineries. At Heat Exchange and Transfer, Inc. (HEAT), we design and manufacture rugged, reliable, and efficient oil circulation heaters engineered to deliver consistent thermal control for both standard and specialized uses. Whether you're working with mineral oils, hydraulic fluids, or food-grade oils, our systems ensure efficient heating and long-term reliability.

Expertly Engineered for Demanding Environments

With over five decades of experience, HEAT has earned a reputation for delivering thermal solutions that meet the highest industry standards. Our electric oil circulation heaters and hydraulic oil circulation heaters are custom-built to meet the unique demands of your system. Each unit is designed, manufactured, and tested in our Pennsylvania facility, ensuring full quality control and compliance to ASME standards and UL recognition.

From standalone units to integration-ready components, our team can design a heater that fits your footprint, power requirements, and temperature specifications.

Key Features and Technical Capabilities

Our circulation heaters for oil are engineered with performance, durability, and safety in mind. Key product attributes include:

Premium Materials: Constructed using high-grade carbon steel, stainless steel, or specialty alloys suited to your oil type and operating environment.
Temperature Control: Heaters can be configured to deliver precise oil temperatures up to 750°F (399°C), with integrated sensors and thermal controls.
Versatile Power Options: Systems are available in multiple voltage and wattage configurations to accommodate flow rates, oil viscosity, and heating time.
Safety Compliance: Built-in features like high-limit cutouts, pressure relief valves, and UL-listed components for operational safety.
Compact, Efficient Design: Skid-mounted or inline options for easy installation in new builds or retrofit systems.

From lightweight process oils to dense hydraulic and gear oils, our heaters are optimized for energy-efficient performance across a wide viscosity spectrum.
