Pump accessory heats metering pump’s head

The Hot Head accessory (photo) directly heats the pump head up to temperatures of 250°F to improve flow dynamics when pumping viscous or waxy liquids. It was designed to provide easy access to head and valves to reduce maintenance downtime compared to heat-tape or water-bath solutions, saving users time and money. An integrated bi-metal thermostat automatically shuts down if temperature exceeds 300°F. The accessory operates with 120 and 240 V a.c. power for simple implementation worldwide. — Eldex Corp., Napa, Calif.
