About:

The XTV heating cable is designed for demanding industrial applications requiring high-temperature exposure and resistance. It features self-regulating technology, enabling the cable to adjust its heat output along its length in response to temperature changes, providing precise and efficient heating. The nickel-plated copper shield adds durability and electromagnetic interference protection, enhancing the cable's overall performance and safety.

Also Known As:

• Industrial Trace Heating Cable
• Self-Limiting Heating Cable
• Heat Trace Cable
• Self-Regulating Heat Trace

Application:

• Process Temperature Maintenance: Ideal for maintaining critical temperatures in industrial processes, preventing contents within pipes or vessels from solidifying or degrading.
• Freeze Protection: Prevents freezing in pipes, valves, tanks, and other equipment, ensuring continuous operation and preventing damage in cold environments.
• High-Temperature Exposure Areas: Suitable for use in areas where high ambient temperatures can degrade standard heating cables, ensuring reliability and longevity.
• Hazardous Area Usage: Often used in environments where flammable gases or dust may be present, requiring adherence to strict safety standards.

Standards:

• UL Listing: Typically certified by Underwriters Laboratories, ensuring compliance with safety and reliability standards.
• ATEX and IECEx Certification: May be certified for use in explosive atmospheres, ensuring safe operation in hazardous environments.
• NEC Compliance: Complies with the National Electrical Code, ensuring that the product meets established electrical safety standards.

Construction:

• Self-Regulating Core: Adjusts heat output in response to ambient temperature changes, preventing overheating or underheating.
• Nickel-Plated Copper Braid: Provides strength, grounding, and protection against electromagnetic interference, enhancing both safety and functionality.
• Thermoplastic or Fluoropolymer Outer Jacket: Offers chemical and environmental resistance, protecting the cable in harsh conditions.
• TC Braid: Tinned copper braid adds additional mechanical protection and serves as a grounding path.

Features:
