Electricfor, a specialist in the design and manufacture of electric heating elements, has designed and manufactured a GCP group compressed air heater with control panel for CIMO, a company located in Switzerland.

How useful is a GCP heater?

The primary function of a GCP heater is to heat any air or fluid. This project involves compressed air with an outlet temperature of 175 °C. With an output of 115 KW in two stages, the GCP heater is completely made of AISI316L stainless steel and internally insulated with a mineral blanket.

The control panel included is managed by a Siemens PLC, model Simatic S7, whose power is regulated by a thyristor.

Electricfor's team designated for this project has personally supervised the start-up of the heater at CIMO's facilities in Switzerland. CIMO is a joint venture between BASF and Sygenta, which produces cleaning products for polymers whose main use is in the automotive and agronomy sectors.
