Tyco Thermal Controls Sheds New Light On Energy-Efficient Heat-Tracing Tyco Thermal Controls has produced a new 12-page colour brochure entitled 'New light on energy-efficient heat-tracing'.
Raychem snow melting systems feature robust heating cables specially designed for durability in these rugged under-surface applications.
Whenever the ambient temperature falls below 3degC (variable set point) and moisture is also detected by the surface sensors, these heating cables activate to keep the area free of snow and ice.
This efficient surface heating can be used in exposed environments to avoid frost damage, maintain service continuity, prevent accidents and enhance safety around commercial and public buildings and industrial sites.
These systems offer a significantly more efficient and reliable method of keeping access clear than spreading sand/salt or committing manpower to removing snow after it has been allowed to accumulate.
