Some industries have harsher conditions than others. Those who work construction and excavation outside during the winter months can attest to that! Likewise, inside the factory, some conditions are tougher than others, and they require a tougher product in order to do the job at hand safely and still maintain top quality.

Harsh conditions require a dramatic response, and quality equipment can solve that issue. Komax offers a line of products with significant safety features to handle abrasive chemicals and additives. For example, our Severe Inline Steam Heater is made of tungsten carbide construction, ranking 9 on the Moh’s hardness scale, creating a highly durable and long-lasting product. With exact temperature control, it can furnish small or large amounts of heated liquids with energy efficiency that still allows it to provide hot water instantly. Its six element internal equalizer mixer module ensures that steam and slurry are instantly combined for quality separation.

Like a typical static mixer, there are no moving parts, so maintenance is always minimal and clogging and fouling are almost completely eliminated. Low vibration and no noise add to the durability and lifespan of the heater. This makes it perfect for industries that need a tough and always reliable product, such as the tar sands mining for bitumen or other industries that require precise controls with caustic and aggressive additives.

When it comes to competitive industries like mining or chemical production, it is critical to take every step possible to ensure the long life of your equipment. Going with top quality products like Komax static mixers or desuperheaters and steam heaters ensure that you will save on maintenance, avoid product fatigue and enjoy profits for years to come!
