【Freeze Prevention】Self-Regulating Heating Cable BTV Series【Raychem】
Raychem AutoTrace Cable Heater
This is an electric heater cable for freeze prevention and process heating. It is used for process heating applications up to 65°C.
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.

Our company is an engineering firm specializing in electric heaters. We started by handling Raychem self-regulating heaters for preventing water pipe freezing. Since then, we have accumulated technology and have undertaken numerous projects from design to construction for fields requiring strict temperature control, such as petrochemicals, food factories, and the power generation industry, including process insulation for piping and tanks. In addition to self-regulating electric heaters with a maximum holding temperature of 150°C, we also handle higher temperature power-limited heaters, MI heaters, and sheath heaters. Currently, the mainstream for process insulation in manufacturing sites is steam or hot water, which consumes large amounts of fossil fuels. However, due to environmental issues and unstable energy costs, there is an increasing number of manufacturing professionals focusing on electric heating.
