Patented Heating Element
US Patent 5558794

Element

• Self-regulating, 1/16th inch multi-stranded heating element never over heats; maintaining a maximium element temperature of 86-87 F.
• Full ground screen and a double Tefzel coating for added safety.
• During tests, it was found that the heating cable could stand excessive voltages and currents beyond its designed rating.
• Resistant to most chemical solvents.
• In a fatigue test, no fatigue was encountered in the cable after a 65,000 cycle test in which the cable was bent to and fro.

Models

• In excess of 20 different sizes of heating elements.
• Varying from 135 Watts to 1425 Watts output, which may be combined to provide heating for any room size.

Power Density

• From 11 Watts per ft2 to 18 Watts per ft2, depending on the final floor covering.
• Voltage 120 or 240 VAC

Safety

• Manufactured in compliance with IEC (International Electrical Committee) safety specifications
• UL listed.
• Resistant to fire, and is self-extinguishing.
• In accordance with Article 424 of ANSI/NFPA 70, "National Electrical Code" (NEC)
