Airtorch™ Process Heaters.  Easy Design Criterion (opens in new window).

The Airtorch™ is a highly scalable electric process air heater typically utilized as shown in the Airtorch Infographic. (Contact Us for Specific Details.) Airtorches™ may also be used for augmenting or heating existing ovens and furnaces. They offer high flexibility and greater control of your process heaters.

Inputs: Air/Gas from compressor or blower or fan. (Varies by model.) Some Airtorches also accept high temperature feed gas as an input. Airtorches™ are highly efficient electric process heaters.

Classes and Range of Exit Temperatures (room temperature at 25°C). 
  • LTA - Up to 900°C
  • VTA - Up to 900°C
  • MTA - Up to 925°C
  • MVTA - Up to 925°C
  • GVTA - Up to 850°C - High Pressure Model
  • DPF - Up to 1200°C

  • Suggested Uses: Process heater, gas heater, gas preheater, air preheater, supplemental heater and many other process heating applications.


    The kW required depends on the temperature of the exit gas from the Airtorches™ and the flow volume required. Please see formula to calculate. MHI has flow rate vs. temperature graphs available, Request Graphs Here.

    Airtorches™ and LTA's may be purchased with several exit configurations which are generally shown on the specific web or catalog page. In addition further customization is also possible.

    Fans are employed when the drop in pressure of the system is no greater than approximately 50 in. w.c. (50 in. w.c./inches of H20 is approximately 1.8psi.) This condition remains true even when the fan can output large CFM values.  Blowers are considered in circumstances where larger pressure drops are present.
