Product description

Contamination-free heating at the point of use

The I²R UHP inline heater heats ultra-pure process fluids directly at the point of use. The proprietary 4Tex I²R heating technology transfers heat highly efficiently and without metallic contact — at only 60 ml internal volume.

All wetted parts are made from high-purity PTFE, PFA and the proprietary I²R heating element. The system is compatible with Ultra Pure Water, acids, bases and solvents — for maximum chemical compatibility and the highest process purity in wet-chemical processes.
