  1. Pipe Freeze Protection

  2. XL-Trace Systems • Pipe Freeze Protection and Flow Maintenance

  3. System Overview

  4. Applications • Above or Underground • Freeze Protection • General Water Piping • Sprinkler Piping • Flow Maintenance • Grease Disposal Lines • Fuel Lines

  5. Consequences of system failure • Frozen or clogged pipes • Environmental hazard from spills • Equipment damage • Loss of production • Life-safety issues

  6. Determine Design Conditions

  7. Select Heating Cable Output

  8. Pipe Heat Tracing Heat Loss Ambient temperature Heating cable power output Pipe size (D) Insulation thickness Remember: Heating cable only maintains the temperature of stagnant fluid by replacing the heat lost through the thermal insulation

  9. Determine Voltage & Jacket • Select Heating Cable Voltage • Select Outer Jacket

  10. Determine Heating Cable Length

  11. Determine Heating Cable Length

  12. Select Temperature Controls • Manual control • Ambient thermostat • Line sensing thermostat • Solid-state Controller • Tie into BMS
