Heat Tracing

Brandsma delivers Raychem Heat Tracing products by Tyco Thermal Controls and and provides advice in the field of industrial heat tracing, fire protection systems, temperature measurement and leakage detection. Heat tracing provides an efficient control of energy. Heat Tracing is a product of Raychem, one of the largest brands of Tyco.

Self-regulating heating cable

The essence of heat tracing systems is formed by the semi-conductive plastic material between two parallel conductors in the cable. This semiconducting plastic material provides more heat at low temperatures and less heat locally at higher temperatures ("PTC characteristic" for the scholars). This achieves a self-regulating effect. Het principe van twee parallelle geleiders zorgt er overigens voor dat de kabel op een willekeurige lengte kan worden ingekort. The principle of two parallel conductors ensures moreover that the cable can be shortened to any specific length.

Heat tracing is also called cable tracing or self-limiting heating cable. It's always the same semiconducting heating cable technology. There is always a product that fits your application!
