Used in low temperature forced air circulation heating systems in heating ducts and other industrial heating equipment including baking and drying ovens.

TRENT PLUG HEATERS are compact, pre-packaged units designed for quick installation and long life. Multiple banks of TRENT Folded and Formed® heater racks are assembled, wired and mounted in a self contained plug, complete with terminal box and ready for installation. Our unique F&F® nickel-chrome, ribbon type heating elements ensure faster heating and more efficient use of heat. Faster cool-down also prolongs the heater life.

There are two plug heater series, both utilizing TRENT Folded and Formed® Heater Racks in their design:

   FFLP Series - maximum operating temperature of 750°F / 399°C
   FFHP Series - maximum operating temperature of 1350°F / 732°C

The racks consist of a fabricated aluminized or alloy steel support frame with pre-formed metal channels. In these channels, high-grade, refractory, slide-in, porcelain retainers are mounted to support one to four levels of three-tier high TRENT F&F® nickel-chrome, ribbon type heating elements. There are no screws or mechanical fasteners used in the rack frame construction. The internal connections are all welded. The anchor and terminal sections are welded construction to insure continuous non-arching, electrical resistance path from terminal to terminal. TRENT PLUG HEATERS are easy to install. The F&F® heating elements are rugged and provide long life at high wattages and temperatures with proper air velocity maintained parallel to the long dimension. This means more heat, faster and with less energy expended. They also allow faster cooling to prolong element life. These benefits, coupled with the ease of installation, make TRENT PLUG HEATERS as economical as they are efficient.
