SELF-REGULATING HEATING CABLE
Self Limiting Parallel Heating Tape PSB - 65 °C - 80 °C Cable
A temperature-dependant resistive element between two parallel copper conductors regulates and limits the heat output of the heating tape according to the ambient temperature. If the ambient temperature rises, the power output of the heating tape is reduced. This self-limiting property prevents overheating even when the tapes are crossed. A temperature limiter is not necessary (also not in hazardous areas). Thanks to the parallel design the heating tape can be cut and installed to any required length. The self-limiting heating tape is available with different power outputs and protective jackets. The protective outer jacket of either fluoropolymer or polyolefin protects the copper braiding from corrosion and chemical impact. Two jackets under the protective braiding provide electrical insulation. The inner one of the two jackets is thermally fused to the heating element (bonded jacket). The heating system must be designed to ensure that the maximum operating temperature of 65 °C will notbe 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.
Application Areas:
- Protection of liquid and gas pipelines from freezing in the chemical, petrochemical, food, and pharmaceutical industries.
- Temperature control of pipeline systems in production processes.
- Heating of pipelines in hazardous areas (ATEX-certified zones).
- Ensuring fluidity in crude oil and natural gas pipelines.
- Preventing fire suppression pipes from freezing in cold weather conditions.
- Maintaining temperature in water supply lines and storage tanks.
- Preventing freezing of liquids inside chemical and food storage tanks.

Self Limiting Parallel Heating Tape MSB - 110 °C - 130 °C Kablo
Self limiting parallel heating tape MSB medium temperature — a temperature-dependent resistive element between two parallel copper conductors regulates and limits the heat output of the heating tape. This output regulation is carried out automatically along the entire length of the heating tape according to the prevailing ambient temperature. If the ambient temperature rises, the power output of the tape is reduced. Thanks to the parallel design, the heating tape can be cut to any required length. This feature considerably simplifies project planning and installation. The heating tape is cut and terminated directly on the construction site according to the circumstances. If the tape is damaged, it is not necessary to replace the whole tape. BARTEC MSB is available with different power outputs. The heating system must be designed to ensure that the maximum operating temperature of +110 °C will not be exceeded when it is energized. When it is switched off, the heating tape can be exposed to a temperature of 130 °C, not more than 1,000 hours cumulated.
• Can be cut to length at random thanks to its parallel current supply

Maximum heating circuit length
According to local standards and regulations.
Take into account the conductor size and max. permitted voltage drop.
A higher voltage drop can occur at start-up of heating.
Power at start-up
To determine the installed power with the electrical system designer, the nominal current of the series connected fuse or the current value at the system start-up temperature must be taken into account (e.g. 32 A for 55 m ELSR-Ramp (–10°C).
Residual current device (RCD) 30 mA required, max. 500 m heating cable per RCD.
