Fuel tanks, service trucks, and heavy equipment can take a long time to heat up in the winter. A product called Powerblanket® SMART Blanket could help. Powerblanket can help you maintain a hospitable environment for gas cylinders, pipes, buckets, and more.
The covers:
- Are available for standard and custom industrial containers.
- Distribute heat quickly and evenly.

According to the manufacturer, the Powerblanket® SMART Blanket protects by maintaining your desired temperature. It has three separate heated zones that intelligently respond to thermal feedback, keeping chemicals and other industrial materials within customer-defined temperature ranges. If the level or temperature of your product changes, the Powerblanket® SMART Blanket will automatically shut off the appropriate zone.
The Powerblanket is adjustable for product temperatures from ambient to 145 +/- 5°F; has a water-, dust-, and corrosion-resistant programmable thermostatic controller (NEMA 4X standard); and has a tough outer enclosure and adjustable straps with metal buckles.

- The unique nature of the application
- The design and specifications of the tank/vessel/container to be heated
