Decarbonization and Transition to Electricity: Top 10 Benefits of Electric Process Heat Trace for Industry Compared to Gas Heating Systems

For maintaining process temperature and preventing freezing!

The BSX self-regulating heater cable for freeze prevention or process temperature maintenance is designed to prevent freezing and maintain process temperatures in metal and non-metal piping, tanks, and equipment. The thermal output of the BSX cable varies according to the surrounding conditions of the entire circuit. As heat loss increases (i.e., as the outside temperature decreases) in insulated piping, the thermal output of the cable increases. Conversely, when heat loss decreases (i.e., as the outside temperature rises or when power flows through the product generating heat), the cable responds and the thermal output decreases. This product is recognized for use in hazardous locations as a safety-enhanced explosion-proof structure in Japan, and it has also obtained certification for FM (USA) and IEC (Europe) standards. 【Features】 ■ Capable of maintaining process temperatures in low-temperature ranges ■ Capable of preventing freezing in low-temperature ranges ■ The thermal output of the cable changes according to the ambient temperature ■ The heater can be cut to length on-site *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

When a large heat output is needed! For maintaining process temperature and preventing freezing!

The RSX 15-2 self-regulating heater cable is used for process temperature maintenance and freeze prevention when more heat output is required than the BSX. The heat output of the RSX 15-2 varies depending on the surrounding conditions along the entire length of the circuit. As the thermal losses from insulated piping, tanks, or equipment increase (as the outside temperature decreases), the heat output of the cable increases. Conversely, when thermal losses decrease (as the outside temperature rises or when power flows to the product), the cable responds and the heat output decreases. Self-regulating heater cables increase output when the temperature drops and decrease output when the temperature rises. Salmon manufactures a wide variety of self-regulating heater cables to suit each application. Salmon's self-regulating heater cables can be widely used for applications ranging from freeze prevention to high-temperature maintenance. 【Features】 ■ Process temperature maintenance ■ Self-regulating ■ UL certified (USA) *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

"Because it's an invisible place, we won't overlook it." Japan's climate is characterized by high temperatures and humidity, and particularly after typhoons and heavy rains, the conditions can be harsh for homes. It's not just the roofs and exterior walls that are affected by rain and wind. The area beneath the floor is actually the most susceptible and often overlooked point. This time, we will explain the "checkpoints for under the floor" that should be confirmed after a typhoon or heavy rain, the "responses" if abnormalities are found, and measures for preventing recurrence.
