RAMP Heating
The presence of ice and snow can quickly turn stairways, walkways and driveways into hazardous slippery surfaces. In sub-zero temperatures the heightened risk of accidents pose as a threat to both vehicles and pedestrians.
The ELSR-Ramp is a ramp heating cable manufactured by Eltherm, that is designed to provide a robust and efficient trace heating solution creating a safer environment. These systems effectively mitigate the risk of snow and ice accumulation on ramps and stairways.
The self regulating cables are designed to adjust their heat output based on the surrounding temperatures. These ramp heater cables are typically installed underneath the surface of the ramp or walkway and can be connected to a control system that monitors and regulates the heat output.
safety and stability throughout winter
Eltherm’s ramp heating system solutions are reliable in locations where the risk of personal injury and property damage is increased during challenging weather conditions. Below are some examples of where ELSR-Ramp can be installed.
- Ramps
- Stairs
- Walkways and bridges

The ELtherm ELSR-Ramp self-regulating trace heating cables are designed to provide process temperature maintenance and frost protection for various applications, including ramps, stairways, and walkways. These cables are also suitable for use in parking garage entrances and exits, helicopter landing sites, and footpaths.
This heating cable features a high-quality resistance wire that is embedded in a durable outer jacket, providing excellent performance and longevity. The cable is designed to be installed directly into the ramp surface, ensuring efficient and evenly distributed heat transfer.
ELSR-Ramp heating cable is available in various power outputs to suit different ramp sizes and heating requirements. The cable is also available in pre-terminated lengths, which simplifies the installation process.
