Stainless steel tanks are heated in two ways: circulating hot water, oil, steam and other media and direct electric heating in the jacket. The big difference between these two ways is that the circulation heating of stainless steel tanks requires the use of pumps and other tanks (boilers), while the jacketed electric heating can be directly motor heated.

Circulation heating of stainless steel tanks: is the circulation of steam, water, oil and other circulating media in a separately configured heating tank heated to a certain temperature and circulated through a hot oil pump in the coil or jacket containing the material tank. Stainless steel tank jacket direct heating: refers to the stainless steel tank jacket installed in the electric heating tube, through the electric heating tube will be heated to a certain temperature in the jacket of the thermal oil, the temperature of the thermal oil in the jacket directly transfer heat to the material in the tank.

The cooling method of the stainless steel tank is the same as the heating method. Cooling water can be circulated in the jacket or coil of the tank to cool the material inside the tank. Circulation heating (cooling) of stainless steel tanks is often seen in large production lines, where heating media can be delivered to multiple tanks for circulation heating through heating tanks (boilers) and transfer pumps. In the smaller processing workshops are more often used to jacket direct heating method, covers an area of small, with electricity can be operated, simple and convenient.
