Maintain fluid temperature within a pipe between low and high limits.
Electrical heat tracing cable types.
The pipe is usually covered with thermal insulation to retain heat losses from the pipe.
Next to our range of heating cables we offer a full suite of control and monitoring products and connected solutions for virtually any application.
Constant power cable tracing constant power heat tracing cable sometimes referred to as series resistance cable is made up of a high resistance wire that is typically insulated and encased in a protective cover.
In this method the pipe is usually covered with thermal insulation to retain heat losses from the pipe.
Electric heat tracing heat tape or surface heating is a system used to maintain or raise the temperature of pipes and vessels using heat tracing cables trace heating takes the form of an electrical heating element run in physical contact along the length of a pipe.
As the inventor of self regulating heat tracing technology nvent raychem solutions are globally recognized as a leading provider of complete electrical trace heating systems.
Supermec provides a complete system from design to installation commissioning and testing.
The majority of commercial electric heat tracing systems in use today are of the resistive type and take the form of cables placed on the pipe.
Variations in the ambient temperature or heat lost through the thermal insulation are compensated for automatically along the entire length of a heat traced pipe.
For lower temperatures a highly flexible cable that appears similar to residential 12 2 wiring is used.
This includes products such as transformers control and monitoring panels power connections heating cable end terminations and related accessories.
Electrical heat tracing systems are used for various applications such as anti freeze anti condensation temperature maintenance and surface heating.
An electrical heat tracing system is much more than just the heating cable.
These lower temperature cables psb and hsb are capable of reaching maximum temperatures of 392f.
Electrical heat tracing is generally used for one of the following.
Electrical heat tracing design.
The sections below provide the design data to facilitate the application of electrical heat tracing systems.
To meet these needs thermon manufactures the widest variety of electric heating cables and control systems in the world.
Htsx withstands the temperature exposures associated with steam purging.
The demands placed on heat tracing systems vary based on the design parameters speciļ¬c to each application.
Electric heat tracing systems convert electric power to heat and transfer it to the pipe and its contained fluid.
Categories products electric heating band strip tubular heaters.
Each type of trace heating cable works differently and the choice of cable is influenced by the intended application.
