Regoplas RT50 Thermo oil temperature control unit

• Maintaining precise temperatures in jacketed vessels for cooking or mixing food products.
• Controlling the temperature of moulds or dies in food packaging processes.
• Heating thermal oil for various industrial drying or curing applications.
• Providing stable heat for reactors or blenders in chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

Typical temperature range

Up to 300°C, as specified for this unit, commonly found in high-temperature thermal oil systems.

Heating capacity

For this class of equipment, heating capacities typically range from 6 kW to 48 kW, depending on the specific model and application.

Pump flow rate

Commonly, pump flow rates for these units are between 20 and 100 litres per minute, influencing heat transfer efficiency.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V or 415V, 50Hz.

Control system

Modern units often feature PID controllers for precise temperature management and safety interlocks.

Footprint

Compact units may be around 600mm x 400mm x 800mm (W x D x H), while larger systems will occupy more floor space.

• What are the advantages of using thermal oil over water or steam for temperature control?

  Thermal oil systems can achieve much higher temperatures than water or steam without requiring high pressures. This makes them safer and more efficient for high-temperature applications.

• What maintenance is typically required for a thermal oil unit?

• Can this unit be used for cooling as well as heating?

• What safety considerations are important for operating a thermal oil unit?

• Is special thermal oil required, or can standard industrial oil be used?

Temperature controllers and thermostats are considered reliable workhorses in laboratory and biotech environments. Buyers typically value precision, stability, and durability when selecting used units. Key considerations include calibration history, age of components, and compatibility with existing systems. Industry sentiment reflects strong demand for established brands known for consistent performance. Used models often deliver good value provided they have been properly maintained and show no signs of sensor drift or control inconsistencies.
