Zesta FIREROD Immersion Cartridge Heaters
FIREROD® cartridge immersion heaters are ideal for replacing large screw-plug immersion heaters. The heater packages up to 300 W/in2 (46.5 W/cm2) in a compact unit, enabling a versatile heating system design.

These heaters include a brass or stainless steel 3⁄4 inch National Pipe Thread Taper (NPT) double threaded fitting, which allows conduit boxes to be added. Also, FIREROD immersion heaters are sealed at the lead end with silicone rubber potting.

Solid copper leads with silicone rubber sleeves are provided for heavy-duty wiring. These units are recommended for immersion in water or 90+ percent water soluble solutions.
