1000 Watt Immersion Heater For Metal Containers

Description:This handy 1000 Watt heater is great for heating up waste vegetable oil! Its incredibly handy when you're getting ready to filter oil in preparation for processing, heating a biodiesel wash tank, or just keeping liquids warm. Add an inverter and it can even be used to melt oil into liquid when collecting on site. The heater is 17" tall and features a 7.5" x 3" protective shroud mounted around a 1000 watt heavy duty heating element. It comes with a 6 foot grouned cord and is thermostatically controlled. This heater is great when settling water out of oil as it can heat a 5 gallon bucket of oil past 150° F and on up toward boiling depending on the volume of oil and the container's insulation. It's a bit too big to fit into the bung on 55 gallon barrels. Heats one gallon of water from 60° F to 130° F in approximately 10 minutes. Special Note:The manufacturer warrants the heater for use only in water. They'll work in oil, but aren't warranted for that purpose. Before using in
