Value Collection KG-1-0032-M1 Pipe Plug Immersion Heater

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KG-1-0032-M1 is a single-element pipe plug immersion heater designed to heat liquids directly within a tank, reservoir, or piping system. It operates on 120 volts, single phase, and delivers 500 watts of heating output at a watt density of 43 watts per square inch. The immersion length is 6.375 inches, and the plug body is constructed from stainless steel for corrosion resistance in demanding fluid environments. This type of heater is typically installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, or industrial maintenance technicians working on process heating, water heating, or fluid conditioning applications.

This immersion heater suits residential and light commercial applications where direct liquid heating is required. The 1-inch NPT plug connection allows installation into standard threaded ports on tanks, vessels, or pipe fittings. The standard housing design makes it a straightforward drop-in fit for many common immersion heater mounting configurations. No thermostat is included, so an external temperature control device must be used if temperature regulation is required.

Key Features

• Single-element design rated at 500 watts for direct liquid immersion heating
• 120 volt, single-phase operation suitable for standard electrical service
• 6.375-inch immersion length fits typical small-to-mid-size tanks and vessels
• 43 watts per square inch watt density for controlled heat transfer
• Stainless steel plug body resists corrosion in wet and chemically active environments
• 1-inch NPT connection for easy installation into threaded tank ports or fittings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install pipe plug immersion heater for tanks, reservoirs, and vessels with a standard 1-inch NPT threaded port requiring a single-element, 120-volt immersion heating element.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or licensed technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for electric heating equipment. Always disconnect and lock out electrical power before servicing or replacing an immersion heater. Drain or isolate the tank or vessel before removing the plug to prevent fluid discharge. Do not energize the heater unless it is fully submerged in liquid, as dry operation will damage the element.
