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.

FE-CAB 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 protection

An optional tinned copper and stainless steel over-braid is available where a low resistance ground is required for hazardous areas or for greater mechanical protection.
