Changing design parameters such as voltage or cable length will result
in a different power output and maxi-mum sheath temperature. This
may require a redesign of the entire system.
To prevent fire or explosion in hazardous areas, verify that the
maximum sheath temperature of the heating cable is below T-class
or auto-ignition temperature of the gases present in those areas. for
further information, see design documentation (e.g. TraceCalc pro
reports).
For the evaluation of the chemical resistance of MI heating cables (for
corrosion aspects), refer to our product datasheets or contact Pentair
Thermal Management for assistance. Check the design specification to
make sure the correct heating cable is installed on each pipe or vessel.
Refer to Pentair Thermal Management product literature to select an
appropriate heating cable for each thermal, chemical, electrical and
mechanical environment.
storage
Store MI heating units in a clean, dry place.
Protect the heating cable from moisture and mechanical damage.
Storage below 10°C may result in surface condensation,
potentially causing low insulation resistance.
After extended storage, it is strongly recommended to measure
the insulation resistance of MI heating units prior to installation,
also refer to section 8.
