16 AWG NPC Shield TC Braid Fluoropolymer CID1 200/277V HQTVR Self-Regulating Heating Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 16 AWG NPC Shield TC Braid Fluoropolymer CID1 200/277V HQTVR Self-Regulating Heating Cable: 100 Amps

About:

The HQTVR heating cable is specifically designed for Class I Division 1 (CID1) hazardous environments. It operates on dual voltages, 200V or 277V, and features a self-regulating core, which adjusts its power output in response to temperature changes. The 16 AWG nickel-plated copper shield, combined with a tin-copper braid and a robust fluoropolymer jacket, signifies a design that prioritizes safety, durability, and efficiency.

Also Known As:

• HQTVR hazardous location heating cable
• CID1 certified self-regulating cable
• High-performance trace heating system

Application:

• Piping freeze protection and temperature maintenance in oil and gas facilities, chemical plants, and other areas with potentially explosive atmospheres
• Process temperature control in pharmaceutical manufacturing where volatile chemicals are present
• Tank and vessel heating to prevent product solidification or maintain optimal processing temperatures

Standards:

• Certified for Class I Division 1 (CID1) environments, indicating it is safe for use where flammable gases, vapors, or liquids are present under normal operating conditions
• Likely compliance with UL and CSA standards for electrical safety and performance
• Potential adherence to international standards for hazardous locations, such as ATEX or IECEx

Construction:

• A self-regulating core that intelligently adjusts heat output to environmental temperature changes, enhancing energy efficiency and safety
• 16 AWG nickel-plated copper conductors for reliable power transmission and corrosion resistance
