Trace Heating Element

Self-Regulating cables

Freeze protection for refrigeration industry, process temperature maintenance and hot water temperature maintenance.

A temperature-dependant resistive element between two parallel copper conductors will not self destruct by overheating and limits the heat output to pipe or tank temperature.

• Parallel circuit configuration allows easy design, planning and installation as heating tape can be cut to length as required on site, power output per length remains uniform and unaffected.
• Self limiting heating output prevents risk of overheating.
• For frost protection or non critical process temperature maintenance, no temperature control required.
• Can be used in explosive atmospheres without temperature limiter for a simplified system.
• With tinned copper braid and outer fluoropolymer sheath, ideal for the chemical industry where corrosive substances may be present.

FSG Self Regulating Cable

Constant power cable

Process temperature maintenance of up to 140°C for 30 Watt/meter cable. Heating cable consists of two parallel, insulated copper busbars covered with silicone or fluoropolymer insulation. A resistance wire is wound around the insulation. At 600mm to 700mm spacing's the wire is welded to contact points.

• Parallel circuit configuration allows easy design, planning and installation as heating tape can be cut to length as required on site, power output per length remains uniform and unaffected.
• Cold tail incorporated: no extra connection necessary into control or junction box.
• Extremely simple termination
• Hard-wearing and flexible construction allows for easy installation around valves and flanges.

Mineral Insulated heating cable

A single-core mineral insulated heating cable with the availability of high quality materials can be used at very high process temperature of up to 550°C.

• Extremely high heat output is attainable to suit a wide range of requirements including heat raising.
• Range of outer sheaths available which offer robust mechanical strength and temperature capabilities.
• Laser welded connection available for higher temperatures.
• Solid metal sheath offers excellent earthing facility
• Supply voltages up to 500 volts allows for three phase design.
• Suitable for Ex areas.

Anti-condensation tapes for electric motors

Electric motors are warm while operating. When stopped they cool down. As a consequence humidity condenses inside the motor. When switched back on a short circuit may occur damaging the motor.

Specifically designed for the electric motor manufacturing industry these heater tapes prevent the formation of condensation in electric motors. Factory made to length and protected with a glass braid and ready to be incorporated into the motor coil.

RSV Heater tapes are practical to use and very efficient. They transfer a maximum amount of heat as they are in direct contact with the stator.

The anti-condensation tapes are generally energised when the motor stops.

To ensure that these heating elements enjoy a long service life, we recommend using a control device.

RSV Anti Condensation Heater

Drain line heaters

In cold stores, after a certain time of operation, the cooling circuit of an evaporator must be defrosted. The ice in the cooler fins is melted with water collected at the base of the evaporator and removed through a drain pipe. This pipe may be located several meters inside the cold room, it is necessary to put a heating cable inside the pipe to make sure that the defrosted water does not freeze before it drains away.

• Factory made and terminated to length with 1m built in cold lead providing total water proofing.
• Extremely flexible for installation.
• Wide range of lengths kept in stock ready to ship.
• Double insulation provides good electrical protection.
• Additional range available with built in thermostat added for extra safety and efficiency.
• Moulded termination.

Heater Cords

In refrigerated display cabinets and food freezers, heater cord is mounted in the door frame to prevent condensation and dampness forming on the front pane when the door is being opened and closed. Can also be applied to the hand rails of freezer cabinets to avoid frost burn.

• Wide range of heater cord resistances to cater for different door sizes and applications.
• Can be supplied by the meter, 150m rolls, or longer spools to suit end-user needs.
• Pre-made to exact OEM requirements with built-in cold lead section provides electrical reliability, quick installation and complete moisture proofing.
