Cable Heaters
These cable heaters
provide superior freeze protection, temperature maintenance and
midrange process temperature control for food and chemical processing,
on water lines, fire protection systems, fuel oil, condensate return,
hot water lines, and in lines periodically purged with 250 psig steam.
The
connection of the bus wire and resistance heating element is the heart
and most critical point in any constant wattage heating cable. If
electrical contact is lost between the current carrying bus wire and
resistance heating element, the result is cold heating zone(s).
The
proven design of FE-CAB virtually eliminates cold heating zones normally
associated with constant wattage heating cables. This unique design
features a tension-wrapped resistance wire served around twin 12AWG bus
wires followed with a tension -wrapping of fluorocarbon film and a
Teflon* abrasion-resistant extruded outer jacket.

Cable is a low watt density electrical resistance heater that can be
easily cut to desired lengths in the field, eliminating the need for
prefabrications.

Features

The
tension-wrapped fluorocarbon film, unlike other holding methods,
maintains the resistance-heating element in intimate contact with the
bus contact points even under severe bending and flexing. This
construction procedure not only renders obsolete other methods of bus
wire/resistance heating element connections such as soldering, stapling, or relying on the shrinkage of an outer-jacket, but it also provides
several distinct advantages:
·
Cable
can be closely wrapped around irregularly shaped pumps,
valves, flanges, etc., without loss of heating
zones.
·
No
fragile solder joints to break
·
Low cost
·
Stands
up to repeated handling and flexing
·
Bus
wire/resistance heating element remains in intimate
contact even around sharp bends and radii
·
Continuous
exposure rating up to 400ºF (204ºC)
Reliability
·
Moisture
and chemical resistance Improved dielectric
