Electric hose heating for industrial applications
Electric heat tracing
Flexible connections also need a coordinated heating design. Pro Therm develops industrial hose heating and assesses how customer-supplied hoses can be fitted with heating elements and suitable insulation.

Considering product and hose together
The duty may involve preventing cooling or maintaining product temperature during transfer. Hose material, working pressure, length and fittings constrain the design. We …
The duty may involve preventing cooling or maintaining product temperature during transfer. Hose material, working pressure, length and fittings constrain the design. We establish the permitted hose temperatures and operating conditions before selecting the heating system.

Insulation jackets and handling
Heating can be combined with an application-specific insulation jacket. Bending, movement and everyday handling must suit both the heating cable and insulation. Sensors, …
Heating can be combined with an application-specific insulation jacket. Bending, movement and everyday handling must suit both the heating cable and insulation. Sensors, electrical connections and temperature control are coordinated with the operating duty.
