Use of the Manual This installation and maintenance manual is for Pyrotenax® Mineral Insulated (MI) heat-tracing systems installed on thermally insulated metal pipes and vessels only. This includes Alloy and copper sheath pre-terminated, series-resistance MI heating cables and components. We manage the heat you needTM at Tyco Thermal ControlsFile Size: 1MB. 1. Ground-fault maintenance equipment protection is required for all heat tracing circuits. 2. Thermostatic control is recommended for all freeze protection and temperature maintenance heat tracing applications. 3. All heat-traced lines must be thermally insulated. 5 8 3 7 1 2 6 4 ELECTRIC HEAT TRACING MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE. for designing pipe heat tracing systems utilizing the RSCC self-regulating heat-ing cables. The following step-by-step procedures will enable you to determine the length of heating cable required to efficiently heat trace pipes, valves and flanges. Alternate Voltages RSCC VAC self-regulatingheating cables can be operated at alternative.

The Design, Installation, Commissioning and Maintenance of electric heat tracing systems shall conform to all IEC requirements for the use of electrical equipment and with the requirements of the relevant heat tracing standard, usually either. Use of the Manual This installation and maintenance manual is for Raychem Self-Regulating and Power-Limiting heat-tracing systems on thermally insulated pipes and vessels only. This includes Raychem BTV, HBTV, QTVR, HQTV, XTV, HXTV, KTV, VPL heating cables and the appropriate Raychem components.

Also, refer to the Industrial Heat-Tracing. Installation and Maintenance Manual (H). Literature is available via the. Guide for Heat Tracing Products” (PJ). 3. Ensure all pipes, tanks etc. have been hydrostatically tested prior to the installation of the heating cable. 4. The operation of most electric heat tracing cables is dramatically affected by changes in the supply voltage. Before making any changes, consult the cable.
