Our Company
Devco Process Heaters is the Direct fired Heater of choice in the Industry!
In August of 2018, Jeff Hutsell acquired the company from Matrix Service Company and moved it into a private ownership. Jeff as a family member of the original Houston Interests company where Devco Process Heater originated, was able to negotiate a successful acquisition. With this move, the same team you have come to know will still be successfully doing engineering, design, and buildout on all Heaters.
Now, we move forward looking to the bright future ahead. With a mindset of service and quality, Devco Process Heaters will continue to bring value and customer service minded approaches to the forefront of our offering. Working daily to make sure we keep this product economically viable, yet never compromising quality and safety that our clients have come to expect of our company.
Owner/CEO Jeff Hutsell
Jeff has a deep experience in major projects ranging from Iraq, thru Saudi Arabia, and throughout the United States. As an executive with Houston Interests, Jeff has proven a vast experience in successfully leading operations into bringing projects to completion staying focused on quality, safety and keeping projects on-schedule.Now, with that experience, Jeff intends to bring those traits into Devco Process Heaters to assure that our clients know that we are here for them. To take the approach every day to lead with our integrity to honor our clients with a heart to serve.

DPH Direct Fired HELIFLO
Hot Oil Circulation System
Products We Offer
DPH HELIFLO HEATER
The DPH HELIFLO direct fired heater ranges in duty from 0.25 to 100 MMBTU/Hr. and can heat a variety of process media including gas, liquids, and multi-phase fluids. It is available in a horizontal, vertical, and down-fired configuration.
DPH KINEFLO HEATER
The DPH KINEFLO heater is a convective heater designed with a controlled separate heat transfer section bringing and unique solution to sensitive heating applications. The KINEFLO heater design eliminates the conventional radiant heat transfer section. As a result, the process fluid is primarily heated by safe forced convection. This is achieved with separate partitioned combustion and heat exchange sections, designed for optimum heat transfer control. Radiant heat transfer is virtually eliminated by quenching the combustion products to a maximum of 1600 deg. F. prior to entering the heat exchange section. KENIFLO heaters range from 0.5 to 100 MMBtu/HR.
DPH EQUIFLO HEATER
The DPH EQUIFLO heater provides a safe controlled convective heat transfer environment for special process fluid applications. Heat is transferred unevenly in conventional direct-fired radiant heaters, creating hot spots. This leads to undesirable process fluid thermodegradation and/or scaling. The unique DPH EQUIFLO convective heater employs a special high energy burner with two significant features. First, direct radiant heat exposure to the process coil is eliminated by the specially designed combustion chamber. Second, the distinctive burner high energy environment induces flue gas re circulation throughout the heat exchange zone. The resultant effect is a maximum 1600 deg F. temperature exposure to the process coil. EQUIFLO heaters range from 0.5 to 100 MMBTU/Hr.
DPH CONVECTO HEATER
The DPH CONVECTO heater is a convective heater designed with a controlled separate heat transfer section bringing and unique solution to sensitive heating applications. The DPH CONVECTO heater design eliminates the conventional radiant heat transfer section. As a result, the process fluid is primarily heated by safe forced convection. This is achieved with two separate isolated components for the combustion and heat exchange sections, designed for optimum heat transfer control. Radiant heat transfer is virtually eliminated by quenching the combustion products to a maximum 1600 deg. F. prior to entering the heat exchange section. CONVECTO heaters range from 0.5 to 100 MMBtu/Hr.
DPH Thermal Oxidizer
The optimum solution to your vapor emission problems (e.g. BTEX, VOC"s, THC's) is the DPH Thermal Oxidizer. The single step approach with no required ancillary equipment (e.g. pumps, separators, or heat exchangers) is your solution. The result is a single safe environmentally friendly vapor effluent. No undesirable hazardous liquid or vapor by-products to dispose. Contact us to discuss further!
DPH Indirect Bath Heater
The DPH Indirect Heater utilizes a proven concept since the 1930's. An intermediate bath media (e.g. water, eutectic salt, hot oil) is employed to immerse and separate the process coil from the firebox. The heat is transferred from the firebox to the bath media which in turn transfers it to the process coil. The process coil is totally isolated from any direct flame and/or combustion product contact associated with conventional direct fired heaters. Indirect Heaters range from 0.1 to 25 MMBtu/Hr.
