Industrials Heators

Heat Tracer (or Heat Tracing System) is a method used to maintain or raise the temperature of pipes, tanks, or vessels by applying controlled heat along their surfaces. It prevents freezing, condensation, or viscosity loss in fluids, especially in industrial environments.

Heat Tracer is typically a heating cable or tubing that runs parallel to or spirals around piping systems. It compensates for heat losses and ensures the fluid inside the pipe stays within a desired temperature range.

Electric Heat Tracing Cable Types

Applications of Heat Tracing

• Freeze Protection (water, fire lines, fuel lines)
• Viscosity Control (heavy oil, syrup, wax)
• Process Temperature Maintenance (chemical and pharma industries)
• Tank Heating & Instrumentation Lines
• Asphalt / Bitumen Lines in Road Projects

Advantages

• Prevents downtime due to frozen or thickened fluids
• Provides uniform heating along the pipe or tank
• Highly energy-efficient (especially self-regulating systems)
• Low maintenance compared to mechanical systems
• Can be fully automated with temperature controllers and sensors
