About Electric Heat Tracing

Application

Electrical heat tracing is a method of applying heat to pipes, tanks, instruments & associated equipment using heating cables. The heating cable is used to heat a product as it flows through pipes/equipment and also to heat products contained within vessels. Electrical heat tracing is a method of applying heat to:

Liquid for preventing freezing and reducing viscosity.
An anti-condensation powder to prevent clogging, condensation on walls of the equipment.
Gas that prevents hydration due to drops in pressure across pipework fittings such as valves.

The main use of the heat trace is to maintain the product at the right temperature to prevent processing problems, and is also useful for heating pipelines and equipment.

The general components of an electric heat tracer are:

Heat tracing cables
Junction Boxes for power/ end/splice/TEE
Mounting stands and hardware
Termination Kits
Temperature sensors (RTD/Thermostat)
Adhesive tapes

As part of the electrical heat tracing system, there are:

Control/Distribution panel
Transformer (optional)
Power and control cables
Earthing material
Cable trays
Glands and shrouds

Heat Tracing Cables

Integra's heat tracing cables provide the highest output and greatest temperature withstand. Heat tracers have international approvals by IEC X, CSA, FM, ATEX and EAC for use in classified hazardous areas

The range involves the following:

Self regulating heat tracer
Parallel Constant wattage heat tracer
Series Long line heating cable
Skin effect heat tracing system
Tubing bundle
Series constant wattage heat tracer
Mineral insulated (MI) constant wattage heating cable
Power limiting heating cables

Junction Boxes

A junction box from Integro for terminating heat traces for power, end, splice TEE and larger cable terminations is available (field junction boxes). Junction boxes can be used in safe areas, hazardous areas, or in corrosive environments.

MOC: LM6, SS304, CRCA, FRP. Protection class IP65

Temperature Sensors

An L-shaped RTD (PT100) and an enclosed thermostat designed for installation on pipelines and tanks.

It can be installed safely in hazardous areas.

Mounting stands and installation hardware

Mounting stands and hardware are available for junction boxes, field junction boxes, and temperature sensors. A custom mounting stand can also be provided for distribution panels. MOC: MS powder coated or SS304, as per site requirement

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Electrical heat tracing: What is it?

Ans - An electrical system called a heat trace system is used to keep pipes and vessels at a certain temperature or increase it. By using a resistive element that is run alongside the piping or vessel, electric heating is accomplished.ï

2. Why is electrical tracing effective?

Ans - In order to achieve uniform heating along pipes, electric heat tracing uses cable that is intended to offer constant watts per unit of length. To guide the heat output toward the fluid inside, insulation is placed to all sides of the pipe but the pipe's orientation.ï

3. What is temperature control via electrical heat tracing?

Ans - The technique of checking and maintaining the temperature on tanks, pipes, valves, instrument panels, and other objects is known as electrical heat tracing. There is a lot more to an electrical heat tracing system than just the heating line. From design to installation, commissioning, and testing, Supermec offers a full system.ï

4. How much energy is required for electrical heat tracing?

Ans - Heat tape uses nine (9) watts on average per lineal foot.
