HeatManagers

Control & record PWHT temperature without separate recorder

Specially developed for pre-heat and post-weld heat-treatment (PWHT): The CasCade HeatManager.

The HeatManager combines temperature control with temperature recording. So no need for a separate temperature recorder. But if you still need or have to use a recorder: check our temperature recorders including calibration certificate and built inside rugged stainless steel housing in RAL colour to your specification.

The HeatManager can be set at a fixed pre-heat temperature for welding. After this the HeatManager can perform the post-weld heat-treatment (PWHT) by following a pre-programmed temperature profile.

  • normal mode (multiple ramp/soak steps for more complex heat-treatments)
easy mode profile programming

Remote operation

All HeatManagers can be operated remotely with the Pro-face remote HMI app. This is available for:

  • Smartphone
  • Tablet
  • Windows PC

2 types of HeatManagers: Pro and Connect

The HeatManager comes in 2 versions, the pro version, which is more suited for mobile heat-treatments and the connect version, which is more suited for (stationary) heat-treatment furnace control with over time recurring heat-treatments on similar products.
