APPLICATIONS
The AHF series maximum flow air
heaters are used with blowers or
recirculating air in baking, drying,
and preheating applications.
This air heater is designed with a
60 mm (2
3
⁄8") OD aluminum tube
and a cross frame heating element
for minimum resistance to air flow.
The nickel‑chrome heating element
is insulated by ceramic beads on a
stainless steel support frame which
is firmly secured to the inside of the
tube. Post terminals enclosed in a
junction box simplify the wiring.
A 102 mm (4") round flange with
pre‑drilled holes at the inlet side are
used for mounting the heater. It has
a practical operating range of up to
200 CFM with temperatures up to
315°C (600°F).
Calculate the flow rate, temperature
rise, or power requirement as
follows:
Watts = SCFM x DT / 3
SCFM = Standard Cubic Feet
Per Minute
DT = Temperature Rise in
Degrees F from the
Inlet to the Outlet
Minimum flow rates are given in the
table to right.

* These air heaters can be operated on either 120 or 240 Volts. Specifications are given for
operation on both 120 and 240 Volts.
** Indicates watts per inch of heated length. Use the table above to determine minimum required
flow rates. The watts per inch of heated length can be changed by reducing the operating
voltage or by ordering a custom made heater. Stainless steel construction also available.
Consult Engineering.
