Self Regulating Heat Trace Cable

It s occurs when a self regulating tracer energised under the most onerous conditions e g.

Self regulating heat trace cable.

The self regulating heating cable automatically varies its heat output as the surrounding temperature changes. You will also find that we have heat trace cable that s safe to use on pvc. Heat trace cable sometimes called heat tape or heating cable is used for multiple applications sometimes these terms are confusing so be sure you are ordering the correct item for your application. This video courtesy of raychem provides a short but informative understanding of how self regulating heat tracing cable sometimes referred to as heat tap.

Ideal for freeze protection and low temperature process maintenance such as water pipe heating and roof gutter freeze protection. For freeze protection you will want a low to medium temperature self regulating heat trace cable the temperature rating is for the heat cable s outer jacket and has nothing to do with the actual temperature of the cable. Process temperature maintenance or freeze protection htsx self regulating heating cables are designed specifically for process temperature maintenance or freeze protection where high temperature exposure capability is required. They are suitable for use on asphalt or wood shingles metal roofing or membrane type roofing and downspouts that freeze and clog.

Self regulating heating cables self regulating self limiting heating cable often called heat trace cable or heating tape automatically adjusts heat output based on surface temperature. Coiled up in a substantially adiabatic enclosure has surface. More importantly all these heating cables exhibit heat trace s it s inherent temperature safety technology. Self limiting self regulating heat tracing cable raychem rpg provides self regulating heating cables that automatically adjust their power output to compensate for temperature changes.

Raychem brand self regulating heating cables consist of two parallel conductors embedded in a heating core made of conductive polymer. Htsx withstands the temperature exposures associated with steam purging. Self regulating heat cable is commonly used for freeze protection of water and drain lines and for protecting residential and commercial roofs and gutters from ice dams. We stock several varieties of heat tape if you determine that none of the products below is what you are looking for.
