In series resistance cables, the part that carries energy and the part that generates heat are the same, consisting of a chromium-nickel wire. These cables can be produced with different resistance values and are commonly used for heat tracing in long pipelines. The resistance of these cables is directly proportional to their length.
To prevent excessive increases in current passing through them, there is a minimum length limitation for their use. The appropriate resistance must be selected based on the required length and power. Depending on the required power, temperature values, and environmental conditions, the insulation material used may vary—from PVC to PTFE and even glass fiber for dry locations.
These cables can be used at temperatures of up to 260°C and 450°C, while metal-sheathed, mineral-insulated versions can withstand temperatures up to 1000°C.
Eltherm ELKM-AG-L insulated resistance heating cables provide process temperature maintenance and frost protection to vessels, pipes, valves, IBC’s and tanks up to 260° Celsius.

Polyester enclosures have proven their worth in many industrial plants. They offer safe protection even when they are used under extremely unfavorable conditions, on exposure to aggressive chemical media or hard mechanical conditions. The inside base of the enclosure has at its sides, threaded bushings for the fastening of mounting rails or panels. The enclosure is mounted by means of insulated screws outside of the lid seal.
