Self-Regulating Heating Cables

 
 

Component and Accessory Selection for Self-Regulation and Power-Limiting Cables
Raychem ® brand self-regulating heating cables (BTV, QTVR, XTV) are ideal for tank heating when design and installation flexibility are required. The benefits include:

Forgiving technology
For over 30 years, Raychem self-regulating heating cables have proven their reliability and remain the premier self-regulating heating cables in the market.

Easy installation
Because of parallel circuitry and flat cable design, Raychem self-regulating heating cables are easy to handle and install. They can be cut to any length on site and overlapped without the risk of overheating. Raychem cables readily accommodate design adjustments between specifications and actual on-site installation needs.

Uniform temperatures
Heat is evenly distributed over the heat-traced surface. The self-regulating feature of the heating cable responds to actual conditions of the traced surface. Temperature control is simplified, especially for tanks with fill-height variation.

T-ratings
Raychem self-regulating heating cables have a T-rating per national electrical codes.

Approvals
Tyco Thermal Controls self-regulating systems are approved and certified for use in nonhazardous and hazardous locations by many agencies, including FM Approvals, CSA International, UL, PTB, Baseefa (2001) Ltd., DNV, and ABS. Raychem self-regulating heating cables can be used for maintain temperatures up to 250°F (121°C).
