## Overview

The Powerblanket PBL55F is a full-coverage, insulated heating blanket designed for 55-gallon drums. Operating at 120 volts and 400 watts, it maintains a consistent temperature up to 145°F with a fixed preset thermostat, preventing overheating and material waste. Certified by ETL to UL and CSA safety standards, it ensures safe, energy-efficient heating that protects valuable fluids and chemicals from freezing or temperature fluctuations, making it an essential tool for professionals managing temperature-sensitive materials.

## Description

PBL55F: The PBL55F is an insulated full coverage drum heater specifically designed to fit a 55 gallon drum and encasing it fully in Powerblanket's patented tough vinyl heating cover. The heater is built for use with 120 volts AC, drawing 3.33 amps thus producing 400 watts. It has a preset thermostat set to maintain up to a maximum 145 ºF / 63 ºC (± 10 ºF/5 ºC). The PBL55F full-coverage drum heaters allow you to safely control the temperature of expensive chemicals and other fluids; it delivers a barrier of directional heat where it’s needed most, the bottom 2/3rds of the drum, while still insulating the top third to help retain the heat – preventing fluids from freezing and maintaining optimal temperatures. This innovative heat-spreading technology insulates, protects and maintains heat in a wide variety of applications. And it's certified by ETL to UL & CSA safety standards.

Review: Kept the Heat On - I ordered the PowerBlanket for my 20 lb propane tank connected to my heater for my tiny house just in time! It arrived right before a week of single digit and below zero weather. Previously I had experienced issues with inefficiency of propane being delivered to the heater inside the house in similar weather the winter before. The heat would shut off when there was still plenty of propane in the tank because the gas pressure was affected by the low temps. Not this year! I installed the PowerBlanket very easily right out of the box, and I got much longer tank life and zero problems like the year before. I hesitated to buy the PowerBlanket due to its price, but it was an investment that should last for many winters and brought me peace of mind that far exceeded its price tag. The thought of being without heat for a long duration of frigid weather will no longer cause me anxiety. I’m so glad I purchased the PowerBlanket and highly recommend it.
Review: It WORKS Great! - I use this product as a companion to a Mr. Heater propane space heater. What attracted me to this product was, small propane tanks losing efficiency in extreme temperatures. Last winter, we had several episodes where the tank would freeze up, the regulator would seize, and our only choice was to bring the tank inside to warm it up so that we could use our Mr. Heater heater. We've had this thing since mid November. Last night was the first MAJOR test, with 13 degree weather. It worked flawlessly. The blanket doesn't get so hot that you get scared to use it. It just provides passive steady heat- just enough to keep your tank unfrozen. The price was also a major attraction. Typically these blankets cost hundreds of dollars more. Would Recommend. Also, we bought a heavy duty extension cord to use this thing, but it turned out to be unneeded. The cord is quite long.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kept the Heat On

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does the job. Helps maintain good tank pressure, even in 10 degree weather
*by C***L on March 6, 2022*

Excellent product IMO. We use this in an RV to heat a 20 pound cylinder. Tank pressure (per one of those cheap gauges that you screw into the tank outlet) would register into the "yellow" area, indicating tank pressure was low. After adding this blanket, pressure would bounce back into the "green" zone, just like a full tank on a hot day. I know. Those gauges don't get a lot of respect, but it's what I have, so I'm passing along the information. On a cold night without the blanket and a partially empty tank, it's likely that our RV furnace would have been starved for fuel after running for awhile, so it would probably have shut off before the RV got warm even though there was propane in the tank. This blanket keeps the liquid warm enough to continue producing good pressure down to the end of the tank. I've used it now through several months of the coldest parts of the winter, and have not had any issues with the blanket or with keeping the tank warm. Very happy.
