A tank heater is a heating device that maintains or raises the temperature inside liquid or gas storage tanks.
In tanks that store oil or gas, tank heaters are utilized to prevent solidification in low-temperature environments or cold regions. This ensures the fluid maintains its fluidity, enabling the operation of pipes and pumps. Additionally, they are employed in chemical processes and industrial plants to maintain specific liquids or gases at a constant temperature.
In more familiar settings, domestic water heaters are also tank heaters. They maintain water temperature within a storage tank, heating it as needed, and allowing for immediate access to hot water when required.
