Industrial heating trace

Short Description:

Trace heating is the application of a controlled amount of electric surface heating to pipework, tanks, valves or process equipment to either maintain its temperature (by replacing heat lost through insulation, also referred to as frost protection) or to affect an increase in its temperature.

Feature

Trace heating cables contain two copper conductor wires that are parallel in length which creates a heating zone with a resistance filament in place. With a fixed voltage supplied, a constant wattage is produced which then heats up the zone.

Application

The most common pipe trace heating applications include:

Freeze protection

Temperature maintenance

Snow Melting On Driveways

Other uses of trace heating cables

Ramp and stair snow / ice protection

Gulley and roof snow / ice protection

Underfloor heating

Door / frame interface ice protection

Window de-misting

Anti-condensation

Pond freeze protection

Soil warming

Preventing cavitation

Reducing Condensation On Windows

FAQ

1.Are you factory?
Yes, we are factory, all customers are more than welcome to visit our factory .

2.How warm should heat tape be?
The better quality tapes use a thermal sensor embedded in the tape to turn on the heating process once the temperature drops to around 38 degrees F (2 degrees C). Manufacturers instructions are provided on the package on how to properly install the tape.

3.When installing heating cable fasten the cable to the pipes using fiberglass tape or?
Fasten the heating cable to the pipe at 1 foot intervals using fiberglass tape or nylon cable ties. Do not use vinyl electrical tape, duct tape, metal bands or wire. If there is excess cable at the end of the pipe, double remaining cable back along the pipe.

4.How much resistance should heat trace have?
Minimum readings of 20 M Ohms for each circuit is an acceptable level to test for. A record should be kept of the reading after the cable has been installed. This reading can be used as a reference point when taking future readings during regular maintenance.

5.Can heat trace be repaired?
Having to repair your trace cable is an extremely rare occurrence. ... The SKDG Cable Repair Kit is intended to be used to repair dual and single conductor construction EasyHeat Snow Melting mats and cable kits, thermal storage and radiant heating mats damaged either during installation or subsequent operation.
