Chromalox SRF 8-2C frost protection trace heating cables provide self-regulating frost protection to institutional buildings and freeze protection applications up to 185º F – with UL listing and CSA certification for fire protection system piping and ordinary areas.

  • Energy efficient SRF frost protection cables requires less energy as less heat is required
  • Simple to install cable and can be cut to any length (see max circuit length)
  • Can be single overlapped without burnout, which simplifies heat tracing of in-line process equipment such as valves, elbows and pumps
  • Field splices can be performed easily in minutes with no scrap or wasted cold sections
  • Chromalox termination, splice, tee and end seal kits reduce installation time

A Twin 16 AWG Copper Buss Wires are able to provide reliable electrical current capability.

B Semiconductive Polymer Core Matrix is the ‘self regulating component of the cable and it’s electrical resistance varies with temperature.

C Fluoropolymer Jacket is flame retardant and electrically insulates the matric and buss wires and provides corrosion resistance.

D Tinned Copper Braid that provides additional mechanical protection in any environment, and a positive ground path.

E High Temperature Fluoropolymer or TPR Overjacket (optional) is a corrosion resistant, flame retardant overjacket is highly effective in many environments. TPR coatings protect against certain inorganic chemical solutions.
