FLEXOTHERM

FLEXOTHERM is a brand specializing in flexible heating solutions for industrial containers, including IBC totes, drums, and propane tanks. The product line centers on electrically powered heating blankets and wraps designed to maintain or raise the temperature of stored fluids, ensuring flowability and preventing freezing in cold environments. FLEXOTHERM heaters are constructed with durable, flexible materials that conform to container shapes, providing even heat distribution. Key specifications across the range include IP66 ingress protection, indicating resistance to dust and powerful water jets, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Voltage options are typically 115V AC or 230V AC, with power ratings varying by model—for example, IBC tote heaters deliver approximately 842 to 980 watts, while propane tank wraps operate at lower wattages around 105 to 125 watts. Temperature control is integral, with models offering set-points from 90°F to 158°F, depending on the application. The heaters are available for container capacities ranging from 20 lb propane tanks to 330-gallon IBC totes, with specific models designed for diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) totes and standard IBC configurations. 3G Electric supplies a comprehensive inventory of FLEXOTHERM products, including 44 SKUs, with logistics support for global shipping. The brand’s focus on robust, weather-resistant designs aligns with industrial requirements for reliable heating in harsh conditions, such as construction sites, agricultural facilities, and chemical processing plants. FLEXOTHERM heaters are engineered for straightforward installation, typically wrapping around containers and securing with straps or fasteners, and they incorporate safety features like overheat protection. The IP66 rating across most models ensures longevity in wet or dusty environments, reducing maintenance intervals. For procurement specialists and plant engineers, FLEXOTHERM offers a predictable performance envelope: consistent watt density, controlled temperature ranges, and compatibility with standard electrical supplies. The absence of moving parts simplifies upkeep, and the flexible construction allows for storage when not in use. 3G Electric’s role as a distributor ensures access to the full product range, with technical support for selecting the correct heater based on container type, fluid properties, and ambient conditions.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about FLEXOTHERM from 3G Electric.

What IP rating do FLEXOTHERM heaters typically have, and why is it important?

FLEXOTHERM heaters, including IBC tote blankets and propane tank wraps, are rated IP66. This means they are dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets, making them suitable for outdoor use in rain or washdown environments. The IP66 rating ensures reliable operation in industrial settings where exposure to moisture or debris is common, reducing the risk of electrical failure.

Can FLEXOTHERM IBC tote heaters be used with diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) containers?

Yes, specific FLEXOTHERM models are designed for DEF IBC totes. For example, SKU 819Y29 (MPN HVB-B-12-412-226-056-00-4-58) is rated for 330-gallon DEF totes at 230V AC. These heaters maintain fluid temperature to prevent crystallization, with a set-point range of 122°F to 136°F. Always verify the container type and capacity against the model specifications.

What voltage options are available for FLEXOTHERM tank heater wraps?

FLEXOTHERM offers both 115V AC and 230V AC models. For propane tank wraps, the 115V version (e.g., SKU 819Y56) draws 0.88 A and is rated for 30 lb tanks, while the 230V version (e.g., SKU 819Y55) draws 0.52 A for 20 lb tanks. Voltage selection depends on site electrical infrastructure; both options maintain a 90°F set-point.

How do I select the correct FLEXOTHERM heater for a 275-gallon IBC tote?

FLEXOTHERM offers multiple models for 275-gallon IBC totes, such as SKU 819Y24 (115V, 842.77 W, 158°F) and SKU 819Y20 (115V, 842.77 W, 136°F). Choose based on desired temperature set-point and voltage. All 275-gallon models are IP66 rated and designed for standard IBC totes. Confirm the container type (e.g., DEF vs. general) to ensure compatibility.

Are FLEXOTHERM heaters suitable for outdoor use in cold climates?

Yes, FLEXOTHERM heaters are rated IP66 and can be used outdoors. Models like the IBC tote blankets (e.g., SKU 819Y28) are specified for indoor/outdoor environments. They maintain fluid temperatures above freezing, with set-points up to 158°F. However, ensure the heater is properly secured and the electrical supply is protected from direct water exposure.
