Description

Parallel constant-resistance cables can be cut to the desired length at 1-meter intervals. Unlike self-regulating heating cables, the power output of constant-resistance cables does not decrease as the temperature rises.

It is primarily used in pipes and tanks where higher temperatures need to be maintained.

Parallel Fixed-Resistance Cable

Parallel constant-power heating cables (such as ELP/Si) consist of two power conductors braided into a first layer of insulation. A resistance wire is wound around them and surrounded by a second layer of insulation. A protective braid and outer sheath ensure maximum safety. For example, the primary applications are in the food industry for heating various pipes, tanks, or valves to prevent freezing or maintain temperature. The required rated power is calculated based on various specifications, such as supply voltage, minimum and maximum ambient air temperatures, and storage temperature. Feel free to contact us!

How does a heating cable work?

Heat is generated when an electric current passes through a specially adapted, highly resistive conductive material, which is then heated. According to Ohm’s law, thermal efficiency depends on the level of resistance (which depends on the material’s specific resistance, its cross-sectional area, and its length), as well as on the current and, therefore, the applied voltage. The current must not be so high that it reaches the melting point of the conductor material or the maximum temperature of the insulating substrate. To regulate the output power, multiple resistors can be connected in parallel or in series.
