Description
Chromalox SRL self-regulating heating cable
provides safe, reliable heat tracing for freeze
protection of pipes, valves, tanks and similar
applications. Constructed of industrial grade 16 AWG
buss wire with a tinned copper braid and optional
overjacketing, SRL ensures operating integrity in Div.
2 hazardous environments as well as certain corrosive industrial environments. SRL heating cable has
a maximum maintenance temperature rating of 15 0°F
(65°C).
Features
- Energy efficient, self-regulating
SRL uses less energy when less heat is required.
- Easy to install, SRL can be cut to any length
(up to max. circuit length) in the field.
- Field splices can be performed easily in
minutes with no scrap or wasted cold sections.
- SRL features lower installed cost than steam
tracing, less maintenance expense and less downtime.
- SRL can be single overlapped without burnout,
which simplifies heat tracing of in-line process
equipment such as valves, elbows and pumps.
- Because SRL is self-regulating, over-temperature conditions are minimized.
- Chromalox termination, splice, tee and end
seal kits reduce installation time.
Construction

A - Twin 16 AWG Copper Buss Wires — Provide reliable electrical current capability.
B - Semiconductive Polymer Core Matrix — "Self-Regulating" component of the cable, its
electrical resistance varies with temperature. As
process temperature drops, the core’s heat output
increases; as process temperature rises, the heat output decreases.
C - Polyolefin Jacket — Flame retardant,
electrically insulates the matrix and buss wires and
provides resistance to water and some inorganic
chemical solutions.
D - Tinned Copper Braid — Provides additional
mechanical protection in any environment and a
positive ground path.
E - High Temperature Fluoropolymer or TPR Overjacket
(optional) — Corrosion resistant, flame retardant
overjacket is highly effective in many environments. TPR coatings protect against certain inorganic chemical solutions. Fluoropolymer
coatings are used for exposure to organic or corrosive solutions. These coatings also protect against
abrasion and impact damage.Approvals

Note:
The
SRL cable is sold by the foot and therefore a
custom order. Once the order is placed it cannot be cancelled or
returned once you receive the cable. This is because the cable is cut
to length here, or at Chromalox, for your order, from your requested length.
