We deliver improved efficiency and capacity to boost production levels, to reduce fuel costs and to reduce carbon emissions

Thermal fluid systems are usually non-pressurised indirect heating systems with a primary source of energy, gas, fuel-oil or a waste product which is used to heat thermal fluid which in turn is passed through the end-user.

Modern thermal fluids are high quality mineral oil with good thermal stability and heat transfer characteristics to ensure long life and low viscosity for good circulation.

The thermal fluid is circulated through the coils of the heater by a low-pressure circulating pump, especially selected for high temperature operation. Temperature control at the end-user is achieved using three-way control valves and safety systems are constantly monitoring the flow and return temperatures to automatically adjust burner firing.

The special Thame Energy Systems (TESL) expansion tank allows thermal fluid expansion during operation and the release of water vapours and gases during start-up and throughout the life of the plant.

Pipework to and from the end-user should be in carbon steel with suitable expansion devices and cast iron bellows sealed valves, which are welded in position to eliminate gasket joints. This reduces the risk of leakage at flanged joints which should be kept to a minimum. A removable basket filter is normally fitted and after installation all pipework is insulated and clad.
