Chromalox SLL Series Long Line Trace Heating Cable – Construction
- Twin 16, 14, 12, 10 AWG Copper Buss Wires are able to provide reliable electrical current capability
- High Temperature Fluropolymer Core Matrix is flame retardant and electrically insulates the matrix
- High Temperature Fluoropolymer Jacket is flame retardant and electrically insulates the matrix
- Metallic 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.
Cable Ordering Information
Constructed of industrial grade 12 AWG buss wire with metal braid and fluropolymer overjacketing, SLL18-CT ensures operating integrity in most hostile industrial environments. The 450°F (232°C) maximum exposure temperature rating allows steam cleaning of process equipment with up to 300 psig steam.
A ground fault protection device is required by NEC to minimize the danger of fire if the heating cable is damaged or improperly installed. A minimum trip level of 30mA is recommended to minimise nuisance tripping.
