Description
A self-regulating trace heating cable consists of a plastic semi-conductor heating element which adapts its heat output according to the local temperature of the self-regulating trace heating cable.
The intrinsic particularity of the heating element enables you in certain cases to do away with the self regulating system. Our self-regulating trace heating cables 20 w/m CABT 150m can be cut to length on the heat tracing site and are easy to install.
For your heat tracing installations and especially on temperature maintenance of hot water systems, we strongly recommend the combination of our electronic THA /E controllers. The latter are equipped with acurrent absorber for startup of self-regulating trace heating cables. They are the guarantee of a rigorous and reliable electronics regulation (energy saving of+50%).
Applications of the self-regulating trace heating cable
- Freeze protection of water and domestic fuel oil pipes
- Temperature maintenance until 25°C of thermical sensitive products when using control thermostats is difficult or not possible
- Snow and icing protection
Self-regulating trace heating cable 20 w/m CABT – 150m
- Prevent water pipes, icy water, oily water, pipe systems from freezing
- Temperature maintenance of pipes & tanks up to 35°C
Main benefits of this self-regulating trace heating cable
- Cut to length on the heat tracing site
- Allow connecting branches with power supplied from a single point
- Semi-conductor plastic heating element that adjusts locally its heating power
- Good flexibility enabling hydraulic part tracing (valve, pump, …)
- Cables can be overlapped during implementation (self regulating feature)
- CABT heating cables withstand 65°C power on / 75°C power off
Operational principle of this self-regulating trace heating cable 20 w/m – 150m
- The dissipated heating power of the self-regulating trace heating cable CABT at each point of the cable varies
- According to the temperature of the contact point of diffusion where the heating cable is positionned
- Thermal power output determined by manufacturer in compliance to standard EN 62.395
