Pipe Freeze Protection

In cold locations, thermal insulation alone cannot fully protect pipes from freezing. Frostex Plus self-regulating heating cables for pipe freeze protection meet the needs of the residential user and can be installed without the aid of a contractor. 

Mineral Insulated Heating Cables 
Pyrotenax™ MI Cable-Alloy 825 

Alloy 825 Mineral Insulated Heating Cables provide solutions for industrial freeze protection and process-temperature maintenance applications in hazardous and non-hazardous locations.

MI is also used where high power output, high exposure temperatures, or extreme resistance to environmental corrosives are needed. MI heating cables can provide up to 82 watts per foot (269 watts per meter) of power output with area classification and design approvals. MI heating cables are constructed and approved for use in non-hazardous and hazardous (classified) areas. The maximum application temperature for heating units is 1022°F (550°C) and the maximum exposure temperature for the heating cable is 1238°F (670°C). Higher temperatures are available by special order.

 

Power-Limiting Heating Cables 
Raychem® VPL 

Power-Limiting Cables are used for applications requiring high power output or exceed the temperature ranges of self-regulating cables. VPL can be used for freeze protection and process-temperature maintenance requiring high power output and/or high temperature exposure.


VPL can provide process-temperature maintenance up to 455°F (235°C) and can withstand routine steam purges and temperature excursions to 500°F (260°C) with power off. VPL cables are approved for use in non-hazardous and hazardous locations.
