PSBL - 65 °C - 80 °C Self Limiting Parallel Heating Tape PSB PSBL

Self-Regulating Heating Cable - PSBL - 65 °C - 80 °C Self Limiting Parallel Heating Tape PSB PSBL

Around two parallel positioned copper wires with a cross-section of 1 mm² an irradiated electrically conducting polymer is extruded.

Self-limiting parallel heating tape PSBL - 65°C - 85°C heating cable 

• Can be cut to any length due to the parallel current supply
• Tinned copper braiding for electrical and mechanical protection
• Easy installation due to high level of flexibility

Around two parallel positioned copper wires with a cross-section of 1 mm² an irradiated electrically conducting polymer is extruded. This electrically conducting matrix responds to changes of the ambient temperature with an increase or decrease of the heating output. A flame-retardant, UV-resistant jacket protects the braiding against humidity and offers additional protection against mechanical stress. The heating system must be designed to ensure that the maximum operating temperature of 65 °C will not be exceeded when it is energized. When it is switched off, the heating tape can be exposed to a temperature of 85 °C, not more than 1,000 hours cumulated.

Areas of application

The PSBL heating tape is suitable for electric trace heating for frost protection of pipelines and vessels. While the polyolefin protective jacket is used where there are aqueous, inorganic chemicals, the fluoropolymer protective jacket is suitable for organic chemicals. For questions regarding the chemical resistance please contact your BARTEC sales representative.
