Self-Regulating Low Temp Heating Cable 3-1C

Chromalox SRL self-regulating heating cable provides safe, reliable heat tracing for freeze protection of pipes, valves, tanks and similar applications. Constructed of industrial grade 16 AWG buss wire with a tinned copper braid and optional overjacketing, SRL ensures operating integrity in Div. 2 hazardous environments as well as certain corrosive industrial environments. SRL heating cable has a maximum maintenance temperature rating of 150°F (65°C).

NOTE: A single quantity purchase equals 1ft of cable. Adding multiple quantity of the same cable will add to the overall length of the product. For example: quantity of 10 = 10ft long cable.

Applications

• Self-Regulating, Energy Efficient
• For Use on Metallic Pipes Only
• Industrial Process Maintenance
• Industrial Freeze Protection Application
• Freeze Protection of Fire Protection System Piping

FEATURES

• Energy efficient, self-regulating SRL uses less energy when less heat is required.

• Easy to install, SRL can be cut to any length (up to max. circuit length) in the field.

• Field splices can be performed easily in minutes with no scrap or wasted cold sections.

• With lower installed cost than steam tracing, SRL features less maintenance expense and downtime.

• SRL can be overlapped without burnout, which simplifies heat tracing of in-line process equipment such as valves, elbows and pumps. Because SRL is self-regulating, over-temperature conditions are minimized.

• Chromalox termination, splice, tee and end seal kits reduce installation time.

CONSTRUCTIONS

• Twin 16 AWG Copper Buss Wire - Provide reliable electrical current capability


• Semiconductive Polymer Core Matrix - "Self-Regulating" competent of cable, its electrical resistance varies with temperature. As process temperature drops, the core's heat output increases; as process temperature rises, the heat output decreases


• High Temperature Fluoropolymer Jacket - Flame retardant, electrically insulates the matrix and provides corrosion resistance.


• Metallic Braid - Provides additional mechanical protection in any environment and a positive ground path


• High Temperature Fluoropolymer Overjacket (optional) - Corrosion resistant, flame retardant overjacket is highly effective in hostile, aqueous and chemically active environments. It also protects against abrasion and impact damage

WARNING - A ground fault protection device is required by NEC to minimize the danger of fire if the heating cable is damaged or improperly installed. A minimum trip level of 30mA is recommended to minimize nuisance tripping
