The surface power of the standard Effekt immersion heaters is designed for the heating of water. The Effect immersion heaters are made of stainless steel (AISI 3169), although models made of acid-resistant Incoloy steel are also available. The latter versions are suited for the heating of domestic water.
Stainless steel is best suited for closed central heating systems in which the water is low in oxygen.
Immersion heaters that are intended for the heating of oil and have a very low surface power can be custom made to order. Contact our customer service for more information.
NOTE! An immersion heater equipped with a star connection must not be connected to a delta connection, since that triples the power thus destroying the immersion heater.
