AH Air Heater



Direct Fired Air Heaters are used in a variety of industries such as paper, mineral, and chemical processing as a way to efficiently heat a wide variety of products. Direct fired air heaters can be designed to operate in a temperature range of 150°F to 2000°F. Air heaters can fire natural gas, oil or propane. Combustion volumes and flame intensities are carefully designed for required duty.

Hauck's modern expanded facilities mean virtually any size air heater can be built, with typical sizes falling into a range of 1-million to 70-million Btu per hour and 1000 cfm to 300,000 cfm of air to be heated.

Hauck air heaters can be insulated with a variety of materials such as ceramic fiber modules or blankets or insulating castable lining. A double shell design is available in which the ambient air entering the air heater passes between the inner and outer shells, eliminating the need for refractory lining.

The outer shell can be designed to run at a temperature of 120°F. Discharge flanges can be designed to match a specific duct connection.

Prepackaged design means all the components for proper control are mounted on the air heater and skid. This includes such items as combustion air and process air fans, temperature control, flame supervision, fuel and air pressure switches, and control and shutoff valves.

Hauck air heaters can be designed to operate under negative (pull-through) or positive (push-through) pressures to accommodate process conditions. Typical design is a process air pressure drop in the range of 1" to 2" wc.

Hauck air heaters have earned a reputation for long life and trouble-free operation over many years, the result of the skill and dedication in designing and building all types of prepackaged air heaters with perfectly matched Hauck combustion systems.
