Flexotherm® Extends Heated Lines into Source Emissions Testing

(Highland, Michigan)

Flexotherm announced it was extending its line of electrically-heated products into stack testing and hot melt applications.  Their proven expertise in emissions
testing has enabled this natural transition into the growing field of Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems (CEMS).  

Stack or source testing is an important tool in monitoring a facility’s compliance with EPA emission requirements in accordance with the Clean Air Act.  Products
include stack lines, sample probes, temperature controllers, filters and related equipment.  

Flexotherm also recently unveiled a range of products for hot melt applications.  Included are electrically heated hoses with built-in heating elements.  These lines
utilize a helical convoluted Teflon® core, and virtually indestructible outer hose of rubber or stainless steel braid with double thermal insulation.

The hot melt heated lines ensure constant temperatures and prevent changes in viscosity.  Applications include hot-melt adhesives used in packaging,
manufacturing, chemical and petroleum transfer, animal fats, food by-products, tars and asphalt, urethane coatings, as well as wastewater treatment.

All Flexotherm electrically heated products are backed by a two-year warranty.  They also offer the unique ability to repair or recore any other manufacturer’s lines.    

Flexotherm, a division of Neptech, is veteran-owned.  They established a quality reputation by supplying heated lines used in emissions testing by OEM engine
manufacturers and R&D facilities throughout the world.  While the automotive sector has experienced some turbulence, they have successfully transitioned into other
sectors, recently expanding capacity by adding a second assembly line at its new tech center in Highland, Michigan.  

The overall strategy is to leverage American ingenuity and new product technologies to help firms achieve environmental goals, save energy, reduce operating costs,
while strengthening the country’s manufacturing base.  This approach capitalizes on key global advantages for U.S. (and Michigan) companies in terms of
technological expertise and high value manufacturing capabilities.  It also makes pure economic sense, with rising energy costs, to manufacture components locally
to realize cost-efficiencies in transportation and logistics.
