In cold locations, thermal insulation alone cannot keep water pipes from freezing. A pipe freeze protection system can prevent freezing of fluids in pipes such as general water piping and fire sprinkler piping.
Pipe Freeze Protection Heat Trace System
nVent Thermal Management uses electric heat trace cables to keep non-flowing water in pipes, pumps and associated equipment from freezing. The electric heat trace cables are engineered to replace the heat lost through the thermal insulation.
Heat trace cable systems utilize self-regulating technology to provide heat where it is needed without worry of overheating. This is particularly important in temperature critical applications such as fire sprinkler systems or plastic pipes.
Raychem XL-Trace is a complete heat trace system that provides pipe freeze protection of metal and plastic pipes, above ground or buried.
