Applications

• Solids

  The heating of solids may serve numerous purposes (fusion of raw materials, surface treatment, wood, paper, …). Mostly inertia and flexibility play a crucial role.

  

• Liquids

  The elements used to heat up fluids are mainly subdivised by the type of fluid to be heated.

  

• Gasses

  The heating of gas may be divided into two parts: air heating and process air heating (with or without ATEX certification).

  

• Comfort heating

  A complete range of heating devices, both standard as custom made, that have as goal to maximize the comfort of the user. Also products for the heating of industrial process air.

  

• Electrical tracing

  Electrical trace heating, or heat tracing, is a trade in itself. Most often, this technique is used to control the temperature of vessels and pipes, and to protect them from frost. However, trace heating is also utilized when frost proofing buildings (roofs, pipework,…) and to keep snow and ice from building up on e.g. driveways. Electric trace heating is an alternative to steam trace heating. We design your trace heating system as well as install it with the utmost care. To find out more about our experience with trace heating, have a look at our past projects.

  

• Control and safety

  To guarantee an efficient and reliable performance, it’s essential to choose the appropriate safety and control system. DIRAC Industries proposes a wide range of materials for integration or as add-on to heating elements in order to bring forward the quality in performance and reliability of those products.

  

• Process heating

  More often than not, heating is an important part of the industrial process. The use of electrical components for these processes is on the rise. In practice, there are often many solutions to the same problem when it comes to process heating and process heating control. Dirac Industries can help you select the best option, or design a system customized to your needs. Feel free to contact us for more information.

  

• ATEX

  ATEX is the EU guideline for explosive environments. It derives from the French ATmosphères EXplosives. The guideline 94/9/EG (or ATEX 95) describes the equipment which can be utilized in an environment with a (possibly) explosive atmosphere. It was created to protect the employees working in these environments. All the heating appliances and components below comply with the ATEX directive and are therefore deemed safe by the EU. They have been especially designed to be used in hazardous areas.
