Electrical trace

The electrical tracing will allow the process to maintain a desired temperature throughout your pipeline system through which this fluid conducts, avoiding plugging due to crystallization, high viscosity or liquid frozen.

Self-regulating trace

Electric heating cables maintain the temperature of fluids, they are the ideal support to compensate for heat loss through thermal insulation in pipes, vessels and associated equipment.



Applications

Maintains fluid temperature, application examples.
• Chemical lines
• Oil pipelines
• Sulfur
• Fats
• Food
• Chemical pipes
• Oils
• Paraffn
• Fire systems lines
