Preheating for Pilots & Instrumentation

Don’t let freezing problems disrupt your results.

Pilot-operated regulators, measurement equipment, and other sensitive instrumentation often rely on a clean, dry supply of gas to operate as intended. Freezing problems can cause pilots to be less responsive and instrumentation to falter. Catco is your partner in making sure your equipment delivers the accuracy and results your installation demands.


Instrument Gas Heaters

Catco Instrument Gas Heaters are protecting tens of thousands of pilot operated regulators like Mooney Flowgrid, Fisher EZR, Pietro Fiorentini Aperflux, and more. They can also be used any time there’s a threat of freezing with an instrument gas or instrument air supply. Stainless steel heat exchange tubing passes through an insulated enclosure, and a catalytic heater raises the temperature of the gas or air flowing through it.





2600 Series Single Coil Pilot Preheaters


Single or Dual Heat Exchangers

Single heat exchangers heat one stream of gas, ideal for a single piece of equipment. The dual heat exchanger is a popular choice for worker/monitor setups and or any time two pieces of equipment are located near one another.





2600 Series Dual Coil Pilot Preheaters


High Pressure Fuel Manifolds

Catco Instrument Gas Heaters offer several options for high-pressure manifolds and include both a regulator and relief valve. Stainless-steel and brass options are available from several top manufacturers.





5000 Series Single Coil Pilot Preheaters


Temperature Control

Only Catco offers the Steady Heat Controller. A hot and cold stream of gas are combined to provide a steady supply of heated gas that stays at a constant 135-140° F regardless of your operating conditions. Traditional thermostats are also available.





5000 Series Double Coil Pilot Preheaters


2600 or 5000 Series

The Catco 2600 Series has been the industry standard for decades and continues to work brilliantly in most conditions. The 5000 Series delivers more BTUs to keep you operational in especially harsh conditions and demanding applications.
