Omegalux® field adjustable screw
plug immersion heaters can be
applied to a variety of clean water
and oil applications. The unique
versatility of this design allows field
adjustment of the rating by simple
connections to the six elements of
the heater. This simplifies selection
and spare parts since each heater
may be used in several different
heating applications. See the
application matrix for the many
kW values available with different
wiring styles and voltages.
