Product description
We supply two types of heating cable.
Self-limiting heating tape without clixon
This type of heating tape has a semi-conductive self-limiting core that gives a varying resistance depending on the temperature. This means that the heating tape adjusts its power to the situation. At a higher temperature it gives off less power, and vice versa. This prevents the heating tape from overheating, even if it crosses itself. Due to the parallel connection, the heating tape can be cut at any point if necessary. This type of self-limiting cable goes up to 65°C and has a power of up to 11W/m. The cable is always ''on'' without regulation. You can control the heating cable with an external thermostat or regulation.
Self-limiting heating tape with clixon
This type of self-limiting cable has a semi-conductive self-limiting core that gives a varying resistance depending on the temperature. This means that the self-limiting cable adjusts its power to the situation. At a higher temperature it delivers less power, and vice versa. This prevents the thermal tape from overheating, even if it crosses itself. Due to the parallel connection, the thermal tape can be cut at any point if necessary. This type of thermal tape has a maximum temperature of 65°C and a power of up to 11W/m. This heating cable contains a clixon that is incorporated in the cable. In short, the cable is activated at +5°C and switched off at +12°C without external control. Please note: when placing the heating cable in or under water, the clixon does not work (optimally) and an external control may still be required.
Benefits Heat Cable
The advantages of Heat Cable include:
- Quick installation (plug and play)
- Standard versions from 1 meter to 100 meters
- Temperatures up to 65°C
- Safety class: IP67
- With or without internal clixon control (clixon control does not work (optimally) in or under water)
- Standard with 1.5 meter connecting cable and grounded plug
Applications
Heating cables are mainly used for internal and surface heating of tanks and piping such as sewage pipes, water pipes and water meters and water taps. Where a flexible heating element is required. The cables are available in standard versions with optional associated control technology. Plug and play is standard with this cable. Optional is an external thermostat/control or internal thermostat in the form of a built-in clixon that automatically switches the heating cable on at +5°C and off at +12°C. Electric heating cables are used in various applications of frost protection, such as:
- (water) pipes
- Sewer pipes
- Water meters and water taps
- (roots of) plants and trees
- Wells and wellheads
- Water troughs and ponds
- (IBC) containers
- Gutters and downspouts
Mounting Heat Cable
Assembly is easy to perform. To be on the safe side, we have prepared installation instructions, which are included when ordering the frost protection cable. For completeness, these instructions are supplied in various languages. These can be found printed in the box of delivery.
