Model HQ2015 Series Therma-Cal™ Gas Cylinder Blankets

Description
The Therma-CalTM Gas Cylinder Blanket is used to maintain uniform composition of gas mixtures. Over time, a gas mixture may stratify into layers of the various components. The Therma-Cal Blanket combines the functions of a heating element and an insulating blanket to create a convection current within the cylinder, which helps to keep the gas mixed and prevents separation. The blanket maintains a constant temperature of approximately 94° F (34° C) on the lower third of the cylinder, and approximately 89° F (32° C) on the upper third of the cylinder, regardless of ambient temperature. The heating element self-regulates its heat output, providing for the efficient use of electrical power by producing heat only when and where it is needed.

Design Features
  • 2 inch chemical resistant, rigid insulated jacket constructed of silicone impregnated fiberglass that can withstand heat up to 500ºF (260ºC)
  • Velcro fastenings for ease of installation
  • 10 foot standard power cord (other lengths available)
  • Heating design creates a convection current inside the cylinders
  • Rated for hazardous Class I, Division I, Groups C & D (Group B is available as an option)
