300072 - Miller ProHeat Air-Cooled Induction Blanket 9x78 for 22-inch Pipe

Efficient Preheating for Industrial Applications

The Miller ProHeat Air-Cooled Induction Blanket (Stock No. 300072) is a specialized accessory designed to enhance the efficiency and flexibility of your induction heating processes. Engineered specifically for use with 22-inch diameter pipes, this blanket measures 9 inches by 78 inches, providing optimal coverage for uniform heating. In the demanding environments of pipeline construction, shipbuilding, and refinery maintenance, precise temperature control is critical. This blanket facilitates consistent preheating up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, making it an ideal solution for code-quality welding applications where thermal management is mandatory to prevent cracking and ensure weld integrity.

One of the standout features of this model is its air-cooled design. Unlike liquid-cooled systems that require cumbersome hoses, chillers, and coolant management, this air-cooled blanket simplifies the setup significantly. This reduction in peripheral equipment not only lowers installation costs but also increases portability and flexibility on the job site. Whether you are working on a structural welding project or a pressure vessel in a remote location, the elimination of water cooling lines removes a potential point of failure and maintenance, allowing operators to focus on the heating task at hand.

Durability and efficiency are at the core of the Miller ProHeat system. This blanket operates with an efficiency rating of over 90 percent, ensuring that energy is effectively transferred to the workpiece rather than being lost to the environment. This high efficiency is crucial for maintaining project timelines and reducing energy consumption. Furthermore, the blanket is designed to handle the rigors of industrial use. It comes equipped with a replaceable Kevlar sleeve, which provides a robust layer of protection against the abrasions, cuts, and tears that are common in heavy-duty welding environments. This protective sleeve extends the lifespan of the induction coil inside, ensuring a better return on investment.

The blanket's flexibility allows it to conform effectively to both thin-wall and heavy-wall parts, ensuring even heat distribution which is vital for minimizing stress concentrations. Backed by Miller's 3-month warranty, this induction blanket is a reliable addition to any professional fleet utilizing the ProHeat system. It represents a smart upgrade for operations looking to streamline their preheating procedures while maintaining the highest standards of quality and safety.
