The BTV self-regulating heater is a self-regulating heat trace heater that can be used in explosion-proof areas where flammable gases or vapors are present. It has a proven track record in sites such as oil and chemical plants, LNG facilities, and power plants, where high safety standards are required. Thanks to its self-regulating function, it automatically adjusts the heat output according to the temperature, achieving efficient freeze prevention and temperature maintenance. Additionally, even when heaters overlap, they are less likely to overheat, contributing to improved safety. By combining the BTV with appropriate accessories such as explosion-proof junction boxes, power connection kits, and terminal processing kits, a heat trace system that can be used in explosion-proof areas can be constructed. This allows for flexible designs tailored to equipment conditions and explosion-proof classifications. Furthermore, it can be cut to the necessary length on-site, making it easy to install and adaptable to complex piping and valve areas. Techno Kashiwa provides consistent support from design, equipment selection, installation, and trial operation to maintenance, offering a safe and highly reliable explosion-proof heat trace system. The BTV is a product widely adopted for temperature maintenance and freeze prevention measures in explosion-proof environments.

The BTV self-regulating heater is an electric heat trace heater that not only offers excellent freeze prevention performance but also prioritizes ease of installation. Thanks to its self-regulating function, it automatically adjusts the amount of heat generated according to the surrounding temperature, and it can be cut to the required length on-site, allowing for flexible installation that conforms to the shape of pipes and equipment. It is also easy to accommodate design changes or on-site adjustments, contributing to reduced material waste. Moreover, its structure makes it difficult for heaters to overheat even when overlapping, allowing for safe installation in complex areas such as around valves, flanges, and pumps. By using dedicated connection kits and terminal processing materials, it ensures reliable and reproducible installation quality, minimizing variations caused by installers. Additionally, since it does not require piping systems like steam, it simplifies the equipment configuration, effectively shortening construction periods and reducing installation costs. It is suitable not only for new construction but also for additions or upgrades to existing facilities, and it is easy to handle during maintenance. BTV is widely adopted as a solution that combines ease of installation, safety, and reliability in factories, plants, logistics facilities, and commercial establishments. It achieves efficient installation and long-term equipment protection, contributing to reduced operational burdens and stable operations for customers.

The BTV self-regulating heater is an electric heater that is ideal for preventing the freezing of pipes, valves, and instruments during winter. BTV is a heat trace heater developed by Raychem that features self-regulating functionality, automatically adjusting its heat output according to the surrounding temperature. It supplies more heat in colder areas and reduces heat output as the temperature rises, achieving efficient freeze prevention. This reduces the risk of equipment shutdown and pipe damage due to freezing in water pipes, drainage lines, fire protection systems, and chemical piping. Additionally, because it is self-regulating, the heaters are less likely to overheat even when overlapping, allowing for flexible installation in complex piping systems. They can be cut to the required length on-site, enhancing workability. Furthermore, compared to steam tracing, it simplifies operational management and contributes to reducing energy costs and maintenance labor. The product lineup is also available for use in domestic explosion-proof areas and is adopted in a wide range of fields such as chemical plants, power stations, and refineries. At Tekno Kashiwa, we provide consistent support from heater selection based on design conditions to installation, trial operation, and maintenance. Leveraging our years of experience and technical expertise, we offer optimal solutions to protect your valuable equipment from freeze-related issues.

The self-regulating heating cable "BTV Series" is primarily used for freeze prevention applications. The heat resistance of the BTV heating cable is 65°C for continuous use and 85°C for intermittent operation. Depending on the specific configuration of BTV products and their accessories, it can be used as an electric heating system in Class 1 and Class 2 hazardous locations in Japan. It is the first type approval system in the country and complies with JIS testing (JIS C 3651). The BTV-CR products have an outer layer made of polyolefin resin and can be used for water pipes and tanks. The BTV-CT products have an outer layer made of fluororesin, making them suitable for general areas exposed to acids, alkalis, and organic substances, as well as for Class 1 and Class 2 hazardous locations. Additionally, please use BTV-CT products in areas exposed to chemical substances. This self-regulating heater is also adopted by various power companies as part of their energy-saving proposals.
