Heat Cable and Pipe Tracing If you're looking for heat cables or pipe tracers...for freeze, snow, and ice protection for pipes, roofs, gutters, sidewalks and more, your search is over. Not only do we carry Delta-Therm heat cables and pipe tracers, we pride ourselves in being truly knowledgeable in understanding how to solve your application and protection problems, however simple or complex. Whether you are a plumber, HVAC contractor, mechanical engineer, plant maintenance or a manufacturer, we think you'll find doing business with us refreshing. We welcome your inquiry. Pipe Tracing Design Considerations   • Available Voltages   • Number of Pipes   • Length of Diameter of Each Pipe   • Thickness and Type of Insulation Using   • Lowest Expected Ambient Temperature   • Type of Pipe, Metal or Plastic   • Other Heat Loss items; Pumps, Large Valves, or Pipe Supports   • Type of Area, Ordinary or Hazardous, High Temperature, Corrosive Atmosphere Most Popular Self Regulating (SR) Cable : : Click for Tech Specs Self regulating (SR) cable is specified for applications requiring heat output to vary with changes in temperature. SR increases heat output as temperature decreases, and conversely, decreases heat output as temperature increases. SR Cables consist of two parallel bus wires encased in a self regulating conductive core with a jacket and metallic overshield. Additional overjackets(s) can be also be ordered.  • Continuous output along heated length  • Cut-to-length and field terminate  • Easily overlapped with no burnout  • Hazardous location ratings Better Solution Constant Wattage (CW) Cable : : Click for Tech Specs Cables consist of two parallel bus wires encased in a jacket with a wire heating element wrapped around the jacket and soldered to alternating bus wires. The wire and jacket are then encased in an insulating jacket. An additional copper braid and overjacket are placed on the CR cable and can be ordered on the PF & PT cable. Please review PDF files for electrical specifications, etc.  • Continuous output along heated length  • Cut-to-length and field terminate  • No degradation  • No inrush current reduces power feed requirements  • High exposure and maintenance temperatures  • Hazardous location ratings Best Solution Mineral Insulated (MI) Cable : : Click for Tech Specs Delta-Therm designs and manufactures mineral insulated heating cable systems which are flame proof, durable, cold resistant, gas tight, explosion proof, and fully grounded. Sheath options include copper, copper with HDPE overjacket, and Alloy 825 stainless steel. Some other reasons why this is the Best choice for freeze protection.  • Continuous output along heated length  • No degradation  • Immersible  • Corrosion resistant - *Alloy 825 sheath or HDPE overjacket  • Numerous voltages available  • Can be overlapped without burnout  • Series circuitry eliminates voltage drop  • No inrush current reduces power feed requirements  • Factory fabricated heaters for simple installation  • High exposure and maintenance temperatures  • Hazardous location ratings Thermostats  • Ambient and line sensing  • Normal and hazardous locations rating  • Wide range of enclosures  • Various Temperature Ratings  • Mechanical and electrical Panels Features Can Include: Monitoring  • voltage  • current  • temperature  • continuity Power Panels  • contactors  • main circuit breakers  • branch circuit breakers  • ground fault protection Indicators  • visible  • audible  • remote  • digital Enclosures  • indoor  • outdoor  • any NEMA categories :: Back to Top DELTA ELECTRICAL ASSOCIATES The Heat Cable Experts Greensburg, PA 15601 Toll Free: 1-888-836-9136 Fax: 724-836-9138 Email: info@deltaelectrical.net
