We recommend a heating system for outdoor installations and conductor systems in humid plants.
The heating consists of two heating cables which are arranged according to the illustration beside.
(1)

Attention: Switch on heating system below +5°C ambient temperature.

The type of heating cable has to be calculated: heat output per heating cable between 20 – 25 W/m.

For longer heating distances the total length has to be devided into different heating sections. For
shorter heating distances to feed with lower secondary voltage via transformer.
