A chemical production plant requires a jacketed reactor to maintain an intense heated temperature of690ºF (365ºC) for its chemical processes. Also,due to the high temperatures and pressures needed in the chemical reaction, the plant needed a seal-less pump instead of a standard, water-cooled, mechanically-sealed pump. - The 150 kW Chromalox CLD Hot Oil System was installed to heat and re-circulate the Therminol 72 heat transfer fluid through the jackets on the reactor to maintain the high temperature. The hot oil system is self-contained and meets ASME codes.
