So for those less educated, what are these used for? I gather it is a type of liquid heater?

If you have a valve on output then its possible for it to be left closed then possible for liquid in tube to boil creating steam and pressure then bang. If its on input and valve gets left closed then if flow stops then worst use you get is steam out the output maybe a blown element.. :handgestures-thumbupleft: have seen them nicknamed pipe bombs on beer forums for a reason :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Btw whats ball valve for in your pic :think:
