Trace Heating Cable
Construction

Chromalox HSRL Hazardous Area Trace Heating Cable – Construction
- Twin 16 AWG Copper Buss Wires are able to Provide reliable electrical current capability.
- Semiconductive Polymer Core Matrix is the ‘self regulating component of the cable and it’s electrical resistance varies with temperature.
- Polyolefin Jacket is flame retardant and electrically insulates the matric and buss wires and provides resistance to water and some inorganic chemical solutions.
- Tinned Copper Braid that provides additional mechanical protection in any environment, and a positive ground path.
- High Temperature Fluoropolymer Overjacket is a corrosion resistant, flame retardant overjacket is highly effective in many environments.
