For companies that design and fabricate skid-mounted process systems, delivering heating solutions that are compact, reliable, and easy to integrate is essential. ProSonix Direct Steam Injection (DSI) heaters offer a competitive advantage by simplifying integration, reducing total cost of ownership, and delivering precise, long-lasting heating performance.
Simplified Skid Integration and Compact Design
ProSonix DSI heaters are engineered to make skidded systems easier and faster to design, build, and deploy. Their compact footprint helps maximize space utilization in tight layouts, while the simplified configuration reduces design complexity and integration effort. Each unit is fully assembled and factory-tested to ensure dependable, plug-and-play field performance.
Design features that support skid efficiency:
- Compact form factor fits seamlessly into tight system layouts
- Rotatable steam inlet allows for flexible piping connections
- Self-contained heating module reduces complexity without limiting component choices
- Multiple mounting options accommodate various skid orientations
These advantages help skid fabricators shorten lead times, reduce engineering hours, and deliver cleaner, more cost-effective system designs.
Lower Costs Across the Project Lifecycle
From initial design to long-term operation, ProSonix DSI heaters reduce costs at every stage. Their compact, self-contained design integrates easily into your broader skid assembly—allowing you to use your preferred valves, sensors, and control architecture without compatibility issues. That means less redesign, smoother implementation, and more control over how you build your systems.
Lifecycle cost advantages:
- Easily integrates with your trusted instrumentation and control components
- Factory-calibrated units streamline startup and system tuning
- Modular construction enables in-place service, reducing downtime and extending service life
Precise, High-Efficiency Heating
- With up to 100% thermal efficiency and temperature control accuracy of ±1°F, ProSonix DSI heaters help meet tight process specifications across a wide range of flow and demand conditions. The technology enables stable, responsive heating with excellent energy utilization.
- Reliable temperature control—even with variable flow rates.
- Wide operating range: Up to 8:1 steam turndown provides excellent performance across a broad range of operation.
- Efficient energy use: Direct steam injection eliminates energy losses from heat exchangers or indirect heating systems.
Built for Reliability and Minimal Maintenance
Engineered for demanding industrial environments, ProSonix heaters are built to operate reliably under tough conditions with minimal upkeep. Our design reduces fouling, corrosion, and wear—minimizing unplanned shutdowns and extending operational uptime.
Key benefits for reliability and low upkeep include:
- Corrosion-resistant materials selected for tough industrial fluids
