Specialist Electric Surface Heating

Range of Heating Tapes - MSL
 
Introduction
 
Site Heat Treatment Services - type MSL, is designed for freeze protection  of pipework and the temperature maintenance of process system pipework in commercial and industrial applications.
 
It is designed to be “cut to length” from the reel, on site if required, and terminated to suit simple or complex pipework configurations.
 
Construction
 
The heating cable is constructed to comply with the requirements of BS.6351 Part 1 : 1983 and has a 2.2 service category. It comprises of 2 stranded circular conductors or bus bars. Embedded in a carbon polymer core, which generates more heat the colder it becomes and less as the ambient temperature increases. The heat conductive core is insulated with a polyethylene elastomer jacket. Overbraiding and fluoropolymer outer jacket are available for increased safety in hazardous and chemically hostile environments.
 
Features
 
  • Withstands temperatures down to -40°C.
  • Power outputs up to 33 watts/metre at 10°C.
  • Optional overbraid and outer jacket for hostile environments.
  • Supplied in lengths up to 200m
  • Approved for use in Zone 1 hazardous areas (braided versions).
 
Advantages
 
  • Parallel circuitry allows cutting to any length.
  • Especially suitable for use on plastic pipes.
  • Can safely be overlapped.
  • Built in cold supply leads
  • Simple on site cold working flame free terminations.
 
Applications
 
  • Domestic hot water systems.
  • Low temperature oil lines
  • Caustic soda pipes and tanks.
  • Food processing.
  • Chemical production.
  • Refrigeration.
