Drum Heater Kit – High Temperature Barrel Heater for Food and Pharma

This drum heater kit provides reliable, uniform heating for demanding production lines. It maintains viscosity levels during processing and may be used in conjunction with Flux drum pumps and Flux barrel pumps.

• Single thermostat delivers precise 0–120°C temperature regulation.
• Hygienic, food‑grade silicone prevents bacterial retention.
• Spiral‑wound resistance element ensures even heat distribution.
• Glass‑filament insulation for improved thermal efficiency.
• Quick-release webbing straps for fast attachment and secure transport.
• IP54 dust and water ingress protection.
• 10 ft power cable offers flexible positioning.
• Heater maintains liquid temperature during pumping and dispensing operations.
• Ideal for food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic production lines.
• Works effectively with barrel heaters UK and drum heating jackets.
• Approximate heat-up time: 24 hours to raise 200 L of water from +15°C to +80°C using a 1200 W drum heater.

This heater supports temperature‑critical processes across food, pharmaceutical and chemical sectors. It reduces media viscosity, stabilises pumping flow rates and maintains product quality during handling.

Suitable for:

• Heating oils, syrups and food ingredients
• Warming gels, creams and pharmaceutical bases
• Maintaining viscosity during pumping with Flux drum pumps
• Supporting hygienic production workflows
• Heating 55‑gallon drums in controlled environments

It also complements the Drum Heater 0–90°C for multi‑stage heating setups.

Why does this drum heater use a single thermostat?

It provides precise, stable heating and protects temperature‑sensitive materials.

Is the silicone safe for food and pharma applications?

Yes. It complies with industry regulations and prevents bacterial retention.

Can I use this heater during drum transport?

Yes. The webbing straps secure the heater for safe movement.

This drum heater kit integrates seamlessly with Flux stick pumps, maintaining stable product viscosity during transfer and processing.
