Electric Heat Tracers
CHARACTERISTICS
- Strong but flexible construction
- Cut to length at site, no wastage
- Easy termination and installation
- Integrated cold end, without joints.
TYPES AND APPLICATIONS
Version with silicon insulation, usable for process temperatures up to 150oC (Max. surface temperature of cable 200oC). Options: Tinned copper or stainless steel braid.
PRINCIPLE
A resistance wire is spiralled around two insulated busbars. This resistance wire is in electrical contact with the busbars at regular intervals called contact points (one of the conductors is stripped on some mm). An outside jacket insures the electrical insulation. The parallel power onnection results in a series of constant wattage heating zones. The constant power cable can be cut to any length. A thermostat must control the temperature.
ANCILLARIES
Economy offers a full range of mounting ancillaries, termination kits, electrical junction boxes and thermostants.
