Whether it’s for heating or temperature maintenance, Thermotrace Constant Watt Electrical Heat Tracers provide exceptional performance and ensure the smooth operation of critical systems. With their advanced insulation options, they are capable of withstanding extreme temperatures and harsh environments. Additionally, these tracers are easy to install and require minimal maintenance, saving both time and money for businesses. Overall, Thermotrace Constant Watt Electrical Heat Tracers are the go-to solution for maintaining optimal product temperature and ensuring uninterrupted operations in industries that rely on efficient heat management.

Construction

Thermotrace Constant Watt Electrical Heat Tracers(CTL) is a constant wattage, parallel circuit heat tracer comprising twin parallel bus wires of multistrand copper. These are insulated with Fluoropolymer or Silicon Rubber or LSZH (Polyolefin) as per intended application . Heating Element is wound spirally around the insulated bus bar and connected alternatively to the bus wires at specified intervals, forming parallel circuits. The tracer has an insulation sheath followed by metallic braiding for mechanical protection and earth continuity. An outer jacket is mandatory for corrosive / Hazardous atmospheres.

Features
Compliance	Standards : CTL – PT / SR/ ZH to EN 62395-1 and CTL – PT to EN 60079-0, EN 60079-30-1 & EN 60079-31.
Approvals	CTL-PT: Tested by Central Institute of Mining and Fuel Research (CSIR-CIMFR), Dhanbad And certified by Petroleum & Safety Organization (PESO) / Nagpur, for Zone II , TI (ATEX) for Zone I / Division II & EAC for use in hazardous area applications. CTL – PT / SR/ ZH : CE and EAC
Rugged construction	Outer metallic braid in CTL – PT & CTL – SR makes it robust and suited to hostile conditions.
Chemical Resistant	Fluoropolymer insulated Thermotrace CTL is inert to all chemicals, and it is waterproof and weatherproof.
Long Life	PTFE has excellent electrical properties, thermal stability, fire resistance and is virtually non – ageing and can withstand the high temperature continuously.
Efficient Heat Transfer	Flexible and flat configuration of the Thermotrace CTL enables an intimate contact with the surface to be heated, ensuring efficient heat transfer.
Cut to Length	Thermotrace CTL is supplied in continuous long lengths, which can be cut to desired lengths.
Custom built	We also offer custom designs of a product to suit individual requirements. We can design for various dimensions and voltages.

Range

Depending on the application and site conditions (viz. temperature, weather conditions, chemical environment), we can offer options of various insulating materials for Thermotrace CTL to match your individual requirements.
