HT & HC Series for surface heating.
- The HT and HC series of Heating Tapes and Cords are a range of flexible resistance heater elements for use in a wide range of commercial/industrial surface heating applications.
- Once the Heating Tape /Cord has been installed around the item to be kept at an elevated temperature, it is recommended that it is connected to one of Electrothermal’s MC controllers.
- HT7 and HT9 Glass Fibre Tapes are flexible heaters that are ideal for heating columns, pipes, valves and transfer lines, especially when these applications need to be observed.
- They can be applied to metal pipes as well as glassware.
- Both HT7 and HT9 Series Glass Fibre Tapes have an element wound on a glass fibre core and covered in braided glass fibre outer sheath; the HT9 series additionally has a braided earth (ground) wire beneath the outer sheath.
- They are available in different lengths to accommodate a broad range of temperatures with a maximum element temperature of up to 450°C.
- As with all the tapes and cords, the use of an energy or temperature controller is recommended.
