Cable circuits (resistive)

Pipes can be protected with resistance heating cables which are manufactured in lengths of up to 200m. As a thermostat isn´t part of the circuit for these cables, suitable temperature regulation is necessary, e.g. using an industrial thermostat with a separate sensor.  Because of the greater cable lengths, the necessity of combination with an external thermostat and connection to a wiring box, the cables are more suitable for industrial applications realised by a specialised company. Heating cables can be wound around the pipes or can run in parallel. As it is difficult to estimate the thread pitch during winding, we recommend that the heating cable be divided into even sections – first, attach the beginning and end of the cable, and then attach the hanging part to the middle of the pipe. By repeating and continuing this process on each side, several even hanging sections can be created which are then wound around the pipe in alternating opposite directions.
