Heated tube bundles deliver reliable temperature control for fluids and gases during transport and processing. By integrating process tubing with thermal insulation and an external heating element, they guard against heat loss, condensation, and freezing—ensuring product integrity, reducing downtime, and extending equipment life.
Engineered as a single, rugged assembly, these systems combine tubing, heating, and insulation to safeguard critical process lines for steam, gas, or liquid. O’Brien Heated Tube Bundles help maintain viscosity, prevent freezing, and support accurate sampling or process control—even under the most challenging operating conditions.
Industries
Where Heated Tube Bundles are Used
Heated tube bundles serve a wide range of industries that require dependable fluid and gas handling, including:
- Oil & Gas – safe transport of samples, chemical injection, and analyzer support
- Power Generation – emissions monitoring and sample conditioning
- Chemical & Petrochemical – preventing condensation and corrosion in process lines
- Pharmaceutical & Biotech – maintaining purity and consistency in sensitive samples
- Environmental Monitoring – stack gas and emissions testing for regulatory compliance
Applications
Heated Tube Bundles Applications
- Sample Transport – carrying emissions or process samples from extraction point to analyzer without altering composition
- Viscosity Control – keeping fluids like heavy oils, polymers, or adhesives at the right temperature for smooth flow
- Freeze Protection – ensuring water, steam, or other process fluids don’t solidify in cold environments
- Corrosion Prevention – reducing condensation that can cause sample line contamination or damage to equipment
- Enclosure Heating & Protection – pairing tube bundles with heaters and partial enclosures to safeguard sensitive instruments in the field
