Value Collection KV-3-0240-M0 Immersion Heater 10000W

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KV-3-0240-M0 is a three-element copper pipe plug immersion heater designed for industrial and commercial liquid heating applications. Rated at 10,000 watts and 480 volts, three phase, it delivers a watt density of 60 watts per square inch through its copper heating elements. The standard housing features a 2-inch NPT brass plug for secure, leak-resistant installation into tanks, vessels, or process piping. At 8 pounds, it is a robust unit suited for stationary installations. Electricians and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers for this type of equipment.

This immersion heater is intended for use in industrial tanks, water storage vessels, process fluid systems, and similar applications requiring direct liquid heating. The 22-inch immersion length accommodates standard and medium-depth tank configurations. The three-phase, 480-volt electrical configuration makes it appropriate for commercial and light industrial facilities with three-phase power distribution. No thermostat is included with this unit, so a separately sourced temperature control device is required for regulated heating cycles.

Key Features

• Three copper heating elements for balanced heat distribution
• 10,000-watt output at 480 volts, three phase
• 60 watts per square inch watt density
• 22-inch immersion length for medium-depth tank installations
• 2-inch NPT brass plug for secure threaded installation
• Standard housing with no integrated thermostat, compatible with external controls

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install immersion heater for industrial tanks and process vessels with a 2-inch NPT female port and adequate depth to accommodate a 22-inch immersion length on three-phase, 480-volt systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician familiar with three-phase wiring and applicable NEC requirements for industrial heating equipment. Disconnect and lock out all electrical power to the circuit before handling or installing the heater. Ensure the tank or vessel is drained or the heater is fully submerged before energizing to prevent dry-fire damage to the elements. Thread the brass plug into the NPT fitting using appropriate pipe sealant and verify torque against the fitting manufacturer's specification.
