Heating cable, also known as insulated heater cable, is an essential component used to provide controlled heat in refrigeration, food warming, and industrial applications. It consists of a resistance wire wound around a heat-resistant core, insulated with PVC or silicone rubber (SRG). Some variants include fibreglass or aluminium braid for added durability and protection.
Heating cable is primarily used to prevent condensation and ice formation in refrigeration systems. It is commonly installed:
The cable can be installed using self-adhesive aluminium foil, tape, or mounted within grooves and channels to ensure efficient heat transfer. Proper spacing and installation prevent overheating and extend the cable's lifespan.
