MULTITRACE

Thermal-flex Multitrace constant wattage heating cables are designed to deliver uniform power output. They are constructed of two parallel stranded, plated, copper buss wires with spiral-wound zones of nickel chromium heating wire. Alternating buss contact at designated intervals, form a link of parallel zones of equal resistance producing constant power output in each zone.

APPLICATIONS

The cables are designed to provide freeze protection or viscosity maintenance for piping, valves, pumps, tanks, and vessels, as well as freezer floors and foundations. They are also commonly used to avoid freezing of drain lines and air conditioning lines located in most industrial environments. These cables are essential to the frost protection and deicing of electrified power rails for most transit companies and other types of people mover systems in cold northern climates.

BENEFITS 

• Flexible

• Light weight

• Excellent resistance to moisture and chemicals

• Cable can be cut to length at job site

• No inrush of power at any ambient     

• Continuous temperature rating to 500°F

• Can be wired in parallel of series
