HOW SELF-REGULATION WORKS IN OUR CONDUCTIVE-POLYMER HEATERS


At higher temperatures, the polymer expands, reducing the number of electrical paths thereby reducing the power output of
the cable. At low temperatures, there are many conductive paths, allowing higher level of current to flow between the bus
wires. Producing the ‘right amount of heat’ saves you money with no wasted energy.

In 1972, the heat tracing division of the Raychem Corporation (now a part of nVent) patented and produced
the first commercially successful electric self-regulating heat tracing cable. The technology was celebrated
as the 200th induction into IEEE’s historic Milestones Program in 2019. nVent is the proud producer of the
world’s #1 conductive polymer self-regulating heat tracing cable.

Innovative Heating Cable Systems

SELF-REGULATING TECHNOLOGY
nVent RAYCHEM revolutionized the heat-tracing industry when it invented self-regulating heater technology over 50 years ago.
Self-regulating heating cables incorporate a heating element made of polymer mixed with conductive carbon black. This special
formulation of materials creates an electrical path for conducting current between the parallel bus wires along the entire cable
length. In each heating cable, the number of electrical paths between the bus wires changes in response to temperature
fluctuations, allowing for more uniform temperatures. Additionally, the ability to cut-to-length on site allows for easy installation.
High Power Retention Technology: With decades of experience in polymer science technology, nVent RAYCHEM’s newest
HTV and XTVR cables were developed with a High Power Retention (HPR) heating cores to maintain superior levels of
performance and design life.
Applications include: freeze protection, temperature maintenance, viscosity control, or anti-condensation for any process in
pipes, tanks or vessels.

Innovative Heat-Tracing System

SKIN-EFFECT TRACING SYSTEM (STS) TECHNOLOGY


nVent RAYCHEM Skin-effect Tracing System (STS) is a versatile engineered heat management system configured to deliver
heat for long transfer pipeline applications (up to 50 kms / 31 miles). Ideally suited for viscous product transfer lines, snow &
ice prevention, tank foundation heating, buried/submerged lines and HDDs, and prefabricated pre-insulated lines.
nVent RAYCHEM STS System consists of a thermally rated, electrically insulated wire installed inside a ferromagnetic heat
tube. The insulated wire is connected to the heat tube at the end termination, and an AC voltage source is connected
between the heat tube and insulated wire at the power connection. AC current flows down the wire, returning on the inside
surface (or skin) of the tube.
