Trace Heating

Electric trace heating, also known as electric heat tracingheat tape or surface heating, is a system used to maintain or raise the temperature of pipes and vessels. Trace heating takes the form of an electrical heating element run in physical contact along the length of a pipe. The pipe must then be covered with thermal insulation to retain heat losses from the pipe. Heat generated by the element then maintains the temperature of the pipe. Trace heating may be used to protect pipes from freezing, or to maintain process temperatures for piping that must transport substances that solidify at ambient temperatures. Electric trace heating cables are an alternative to steam trace heating where steam is not available or unwanted

Green Contract Services have the technical knowledge, expertise and experience necessary to recommend the most suitable Trace Heating products tailored for individual applications.

We are able to calculate the performance and energy requirements of your pipework, plant and equipment, including heat loss calculations and the calculation of the optimum insulation thickness. Taking into consideration all of the required process and operational requirements. The result is a clearly defined specification for the electrical trace heating and thermal insulation and control panels tailored to meet your specific application.
