Oil expansion tanks. The other side is dry and contains. Thermal fluid expansion tanks and degassing systems are important for maintaining long oil life as well as lowering the maintenance costs on the thermal oil heater pumps and process equipment. Expansion tanks have capacities ranging from 2 gallons to several hundred gallons. This can be system piping the heater or sometimes the thermal fluid space within a user for instance the heat exchanger calendar roll or press platen.
Expansion tanks phoenix oil heater offers a full line of expansion tanks. Expansion tank is provided in hot oil system to accommodate for the increased thermic fluid volume due to thermal expansion. It also helps in removal of moisture and non condensables during start up. Expansion tanks are occasionally full of hot thermal oil making them both burn and fire hazards.
