ELECTRIC HEATING BY THE THERMTRAC SKIN EFFECT METHOD

The ThermTrac system is a cost-effective alternative to standard heating systems with sequential resistance in extended pipelines, since it eliminates the need to use an extensive power distribution system. The system allows to provide electric heating of the pipeline with a length of up to 25 kilometers from just one power supply point. The operational flexibility of the system allows it to be used to maintain temperature, protect against freezing and warming up.

The system generates heat in the heating tube by means of a reverse current passing through the impedance of the inner surface of the heating tube.

There is no voltage and current on the outer surface of the heating tube.

ThermTrac insulated core is the basis of a heating system based on the skin effect of the Thermon company. This core is developed by Thermon individually for each customer, while its dielectric insulation and abrasion-resistant shell meet the conditions of specific customer projects. Copper cores with polyolefin insulation can be used for projects to protect against freezing and maintain low temperatures. Fluoropolymer insulated cores provide excellent temperature performance, operational flexibility and durability required for high temperature systems.
