  1. 200L Drum Insulation Jackets

     200L Drum Insulation Jackets

    These units are manufactured with our high-density inert fibreglass insulation and can be used to keep drums warm or cool, by slowing down temperature changes / responses to the local ambient temperature. Ideal for projects that need to keep one drum warm while a second is being heated with one of our Flexible Heating Jackets or Induction Heaters.

    The Insulation Jackets (product code: IJ2D) can also be used around a drum whilst being heated with a Base Heater. This minimises heat-loss to improve efficiency and potential heating rates.

  7. Composite & Epoxy Resin Curing Heaters

    Composite & Epoxy Resin Curing Heaters

    LMK Thermosafe Ltd have been manufacturing Induction Drum Heaters using specialist chemically resistant resins for over 30 years, so are very familiar with the technical challenges of delivering high quality finished GRP products for use in harsh environments.

    The marine and aeronautical industries use fibre reinforced resins, laminates and gelcoats in many applications where durability, finish and quality go hand in hand. Our flexible heating jackets have been utilised for surface curing during product assembly and where any post-production work results in the need for re-finishing. Applications vary from insurance quality repairs to luxury yachts, through surface curing of wind turbine blades during manufacture and re- finishing of blade tips during maintenance. Composite structures assembled in the construction of commercial and military aircraft often require surface heating. The high density insulation used throughout our products ensures a very evenly distributed heat is delivered, and the flexibility of the jacket permits uneven surface to be thoroughly cured. Sensors can be embedded where necessary for logging. We manufacture custom sizes and shapes, so with your drawings, images and temperature requirements we would be pleased to work out a solution and pricing without obligation.

  10. Digiheat Base Heater

    Digiheat Base Heater

    Provides heat to the base of 210 litre drums and smaller containers.

    May be used on its own, or with other LMK Heating products.

    Digital indicating thermostat standard.

     

    The Digiheat Base Heater is suitable for heating steel or plastic drums up to 210 litres, including smaller containers. Top plate temperatures can be set and clearly displayed on the integral microprocessor temperature controller.

    The Digiheat may be used by itself to provide heat to the base of a drum, or alternatively it can be used in conjunction with our other products such as flexible heating jackets to reduce heating times.

    When using our THERMOSAFE® Induction Heater in a normal industrial area to melt a wax with poor thermal properties, the addition of a Digiheat significantly reduces the time required. A reduction of 45% in the time taken for all the contents of a drum to reach 80℃ and be completely melted has been demonstrated.
