nVent RAYCHEM 5XL1-CR - XL-Trace Self-Regulating Heating Cable - Pipe Freeze Protection - 120V - (SOLD BY THE FOOT)

Self-regulating heating cable for pipe freeze protection and flow maintenance. The heating element in the XL-Trace heating cable consists of a continuous core of conductive polymer extruded between two copper bus wires. The XL-Trace heating cable regulates its power output in response to pipe temperature changes. This self-regulating technology allows XL-Trace heating cable to be overlapped or installed on plastic pipes without overheating.

Low total installed cost

• The XL-Trace heating cable’s parallel circuitry allows it to be cut to the exact length required, with no wasted cable. Its flexibility allows it to be wrapped around complex fittings and valves.
  All of these characteristics simplify and streamline the design of a heat-tracing system. Installation is quick and simple.

Low total operating cost

• Building operators are assured of optimal energy efficiency and low maintenance costs when an XL-Trace system is specified. The same features that make an XL-Trace system easy to install the first time also simplify additions or changes to the system during building renovations.
