Description

Fisher Type RPE Electric Pilot Heater

🔹 Product Overview

The Fisher Type RPE Electric Pilot Heater is engineered to protect regulator pilots and control systems operating in low-temperature or high-pressure gas environments.

When gas expands through regulators, rapid temperature drop can cause:

❄ Ice formation
⚠ Pressure instability
🔧 Pilot malfunction
🚫 Unexpected shutdown

The RPE heater eliminates these risks by providing controlled thermal regulation directly at the thermometer pocket, maintaining stable pilot operation even under extreme operating pressure up to 100 bar (1450 psig).

It is not just a heater — it is a system stability safeguard.

🔹 Key Features

✔ High Pressure Capability – Up to 100 bar / 1450 psig

Designed to withstand demanding industrial gas applications.

✔ Interchangeable Thermic Probe (10 kΩ)

Allows precise temperature monitoring and flexible replacement.

✔ Dual Interchangeable Heating Cartridges – 280 W / 230 V

Ensures uniform and reliable heating performance.

✔ Wide Temperature Regulation Range – -30°C to 90°C

Maintains optimal regulator conditions in cold climates.

✔ Integrated Thermostat & Relay Protection (2A)

Provides built-in electrical safety.

✔ Compact Pneumatic & Electrical Interface

1/4” NPT connections with RPE electrical box for easy integration.

🔹 Application Scenarios

For operators in cold regions or high-pressure gas systems, freezing is not theoretical — it is operational reality.

Without heating protection, you may face:

❌ Pilot pressure fluctuation

❌ Regulator hunting

❌ Gas supply interruption

❌ Maintenance call-outs

❌ System safety inspection failure

The RPE Electric Pilot Heater is ideal for:

✔ Natural gas pressure reduction stations

✔ LNG vaporization systems

✔ Industrial gas skids

✔ High-pressure control loops

✔ Cold climate installations

From a project perspective, installing RPE means:

👉 Lower freeze-related downtime

👉 More stable outlet pressure control

👉 Reduced field maintenance cost

👉 Improved winter operation reliability

It protects not just equipment — but your continuous operation capability.
