Heat Tracing Overview, Application and Guidelines - 1

Heat tracing is used to counteract the heat lostfrom process equipment and piping through its insulation. A heat tracing system is a group of process equipment and piping which is heat traced and controlled in a logical and economical manner.There are many reasons for making up theheat loss of a system. With any heat loss, there is a corresponding drop in temperature. In many cases, a drop in temperature bringsabout unacceptable consequences. These consequences could be freezing of water in cooling water lines, steam or condensate return lines, compressed air lines, fire protection lines, storage tanks, valves, etc. A drop in temperature of process fluids could result in solution precipitation, unacceptable viscosity increase or solidification of the product in the lines. > HEAT TRACINGPRODUCTS G-1 >
