The Thermon HPT Power-Limiting Industrial Heating Cable is a cutting-edge solution tailored for applications demanding superior performance in process temperature maintenance or freeze protection, especially in environments requiring high maintain temperatures or exposure to elevated temperatures.

At the core of HPT’s advanced design is a coiled resistor alloy heating element that endows the cable with power-limiting capabilities. This unique Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) characteristic ensures a decrease in the cable’s power output as the heat-traced product temperature rises. Notably, this feature allows for cable overlapping during installation, enhancing flexibility and ease of use.

The composite construction of the heating element and fiber substrate, complemented by an additional fiber cushion layer, results in an exceptionally durable and high-performance heating cable. This robust construction is designed to withstand the challenges of demanding industrial environments, ensuring reliability and longevity in operation.

Specifically engineered for process temperature maintenance or freeze protection in environments with elevated temperature requirements, HPT cables offer outstanding versatility. They are approved for use in ordinary (nonclassified) areas, hazardous (classified) areas, and even Zone 1 and 2 classified areas. This broad approval spectrum underscores the cable’s suitability for a wide range of industrial applications.

In summary, the HPT Power-Limiting Industrial Heating Cable stands out as a high-performance solution tailored for applications where maintaining high temperatures or exposure to elevated temperatures is crucial. With its power-limiting feature, ease of installation, and exceptional durability, HPT provides a reliable and versatile heating solution for diverse industrial settings. Choose HPT for a cutting-edge heating cable that excels in challenging environments, ensuring efficient process temperature maintenance and freeze protection.
