Description
SOLCO IcSR(e)40 2-CV Self-Regulating Roof and Gutter De-Icing Cable
The SOLCO IcSR(e)40 Self-Regulating Heating Cable is designed for snow melting, ice prevention and frost protection in roof drainage and outdoor installations.
With a rated output of 40W/m at 0°C in ice and water, the cable is particularly suited to roofs, gutters, downpipes and external drainage systems exposed to freezing winter conditions.
Its self-regulating heating technology automatically adjusts heat output according to surrounding temperatures, helping maintain effective drainage routes and reduce ice accumulation.
Roof, Gutter and Downpipe De-Icing
During winter, snow accumulating on roofs can begin to melt due to sunlight or heat escaping from a building.
When this meltwater reaches colder gutters or downpipes, it can refreeze and form ice blockages that prevent water from draining properly.
Ice build-up can cause overflowing gutters, icicle formation and potential damage to roofing and drainage components.
SOLCO IcSR(e)40 provides a self-regulating electric heating solution for suitable roof edges, gutters and drainage systems, helping reduce ice formation during freezing weather.
How SOLCO IcSR(e) Self-Regulating Cable Works
SOLCO IcSR(e) uses a self-regulating heating element that responds to changes in surrounding temperature.
At lower temperatures, the cable produces more heat. As temperatures rise, its heat output decreases automatically.
Different sections of cable can respond independently to their local conditions, helping provide the required heating along exposed drainage runs.
The cable's flexible, flat construction allows it to follow complex shapes and installation layouts.
Key Features and Benefits
Rated at 40 watts per metre at 0°C under ice and water conditions.
Automatically varies heat output according to surrounding temperature conditions.
Designed to help reduce ice build-up in suitable roof drainage systems.
Manufacturer-designed for exposure to UV, rain and changing outdoor temperatures.
Self-regulating construction designed to resist overheating during overlap under specified conditions.
Suitable for routing around complex gutter profiles and roof details.
Can be cut to suitable installation lengths, subject to circuit design limits and correct termination.
Manufacturer-designed switching characteristics support efficient operation and cable service life.
Typical Applications
Ice prevention for suitable roof-edge drainage installations.
Helps reduce ice blockages and maintain drainage routes during cold weather.
Snow and ice management for suitable commercial roof installations.
De-icing and roof drainage protection for suitable resort buildings.
Icicle prevention around selected elevated roof and drainage areas.
Manufacturer-listed applications include appropriate bridges and airport infrastructure.

Weather-Resistant Cable Construction
SOLCO offers its IcSR heating cable range with UV-resistant polyolefin and fluoropolymer outer jacket options.
These materials are intended for different outdoor and environmental exposure conditions. The exact outer jacket supplied with the 2-CV configuration should be confirmed against the supplier specification.
Installation and System Requirements
SOLCO IcSR(e)40 should be specified as part of a correctly designed outdoor de-icing system.
- Determine the appropriate cable route through roof edges, gutters and downpipe systems.
- Select suitable temperature or moisture sensing controls for the installation.
- Use manufacturer-compatible fixing clips, supports, connection kits and end seals.
- Confirm the supplied cable jacket is suitable for the operating environment.
- Ensure external connections and electrical enclosures are appropriately weather protected.
- Verify maximum circuit lengths, breaker ratings and start-up conditions against SOLCO's technical documentation.
- Follow manufacturer guidance for routing, termination, testing and commissioning.
Installation Note: Electrical installation must be completed by suitably qualified personnel using appropriate controls and protective devices.
