Direct Electric Heating

The topside package comprises tailor made medium voltage components that control the current in the flow line, convert the load from single phase to a symmetrical 3-phase load, and compensate for the low power factor. Wärtsilä delivers electric and optic protection and control packages that have been specially developed for Wärtsilä DEH. The Wärtsilä Direct Electric Heating package can be installed in suitable indoor locations, or in outdoor locations within a steel or aluminium module with HVAC or water cooling. Wärtsilä DEH deliveries always include a special power system analysis to ensure its integrity with the platform system.
