Tempco TSP02080 Screw Plug Immersion Heater 92 sq in 1000 W 120 V
A 1,000 W copper-sheathed screw-plug immersion heater with brass plug, 92 sq in surface, 120 V single-phase operation, 60–250 °F control range and NEMA 1 enclosure
- 1000 W output delivers rapid heat transfer
- 92 sq in surface area ensures efficient thermal distribution
- 120 V AC single-phase operation suits standard power supplies
- Adjustable 60 to 250 °F control range matches process requirements
- NEMA 1 enclosure protects internal components in indoor environments
Application and purpose
The Tempco TSP02080 is a screw plug immersion heater rated at 1000 W for 120 V AC single phase. It provides direct heating for liquids in tanks or vessels where a 1 in NPT threaded opening is available. The NEMA 1 enclosure suits general indoor environments.
Installation requirements and space impact
The heater has an overall length of 12 7/16 in and requires a minimum immersion depth of 6 3/8 in. Copper sheath and brass plug materials handle the 91.51 W/sq in density across 92 sq in of surface area. Silicone resin element seals and corrosion resistant wiring hardware simplify the electrical connection.
Suitability and limits
This model suits processes needing a 60 to 250 degrees F control range with compact element bends that restore insulation resistance after forming. Buyers needing higher voltage, three phase power or a different thread size should look at other configurations. The 120 V single phase design limits use to compatible supply circuits.

Questions about this item
What is the minimum immersion depth required for the 1000 W heater to operate safely?
The heater requires a minimum immersion depth of 6 3/8 in to ensure the sheath remains covered during operation.
What surface temperature can the brass screw plug reach during continuous 120 V operation?
The sheath runs at a watt density of 91.51 W/sq in, so the plug and surrounding fluid will approach the 250 °F upper control limit under sustained load.
Which thread size must the tank opening have to accept the 1 in NPT fitting?
The tank needs a 1 in NPT threaded port to match the heater’s brass screw plug.
