thickness insulates the exterior walls of the unit.
All pieces of the outer shell will be of continuous weld construction.
HEATING
SYSTEM
The heat source is a 60,000 BTU liquid propane gas vapor burner.
Temperature is monitored by a thermostat.
The thermostat controls the temperature settings from 175 to 350 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Gas control valve power is supplied by a self-maintaining 750 MV power
pile generator.
An electric Piezo igniter provides manual pilot ignition.

feature in the event of pilot failure.
The LPG burner is mounted under the storage bin.
An access panel allows installation, removal and maintenance of the
burner.
A 14 gauge stainless steel panel is incorporated to offer protection from
direct heat and diverts the heat around asphalt hopper bin.
High temperature insulation, reflective aluminum and stainless steel
deflect heat to provide optimum efficiency.
A combination of convection heating and conduction heating which will
provide the energy required to heat the material enclosed in the storage
bin.
