This ATEX IBC heater provides safe, efficient and compliant heating for 1000 L IBC containers used in hazardous industrial environments. It provides reliable frost protection and temperature control for liquids stored or processed in ATEX zones 1/2 (gas) and 21/22 (dust). Importantly, this IBC container heater jacket features a durable anti‑static PVC outer layer and a self‑limiting heating cable, ensuring stable performance without the need for an expensive temperature controller.
This IBC tote heater operates independently - the built‑in self‑limiting cable regulates heat output automatically, maintaining safe temperatures and preventing overheating. As a result, the heater provides dependable frost protection and steady temperature control with minimal operator input.
Additionally, the heater includes a 5 m connection cable and an ATEX‑certified junction box, allowing quick cable replacement and reducing set-up time. It fits standard 1000 L IBC containers and may be paired with an optional insulating lid for improved thermal efficiency.
This ATEX IBC heater is designed for safe heating in Ex-zoned environments where ignition risks must be controlled. It also improves process efficiency and protects material integrity in demanding high viscosity transfer applications.
