Founded in 1929 as a family owned and operated business, INDEECO designs and manufactures commercial and industrial electric heating and control systems. A staff of 250 skilled workers builds state of- the-art heaters and complex heating systems. Its 30-plus engineers, technicians, ASME-certified welders, quality assurance personnel, skilled electronic and electrical assemblers and panel board fabricators work together to provide customers with turnkey heating solutions. The creativity and spirit of discovery that launched INDEECO in an inventor’s basement during the Depression continues today in four air-conditioned plants totaling more than 190000 square feet. Since 1968, we have built electric heating equipment for the Railcar ...
Three typical cab heater designs are shown below, all with covers removed for clarity. INDEECO designs and fabricates the heating elements, sheet metal enclosures and internal wiring. These in-house capabilities are unique in the cab heater field. All units are tested after assembly under full power.
Basic Construction Three basic tubular element constructions are Single-Pass Element, Two-Pass Element, Two-Pass, Dual Circuit Element. All have Type 304 stainless steel sheath, surrounded by spiral wound stainless fins when required. The large 0.475” sheath diameter results in extra magnesium oxide insulation for withstanding high voltages.
Optional Constructions
Eight fins per inch (five fins are standard) for lower element temperatures.
Hermetically sealed terminals.
Mounting hardware, either flanges or threaded fittings.
Leads in place of terminals.
Incoloy 800, Inconel 600 or Monel sheath and Monel fins for particularly corrosive atmospheres.
