Description
SOLCO FBL Self-Regulating Industrial Trace Heating Cable
The SOLCO FBL is a self-regulating electric heating cable designed for low to medium temperature process flow control.
Manufacturer-listed applications include freeze protection of water pipelines and temperature maintenance for petrochemical and gas plants, including use in hazardous locations.
The four available 200–277V AC versions provide rated outputs of 10, 16, 24 or 30W/m at 10°C, with a CF fluoropolymer outer jacket.
Maximum maintain temperature is 65°C with power ON, while maximum withstand temperature is 85°C with power OFF. The published temperature classification is T6 (85°C).
Available Heating Cable Outputs
Select the required output from the product variants above. The stated power ratings are specified by SOLCO at 10°C.
All four listed product codes use SOLCO's 200–277V AC configuration and CF fluoropolymer jacket.
Self-Regulating Heat Output
FBL heating cable self-regulates its thermal performance in response to temperature.
Heat output is controlled independently along the cable length, allowing thermal output to respond to local temperature conditions.
SOLCO also identifies overlap tolerance, cut-to-length installation, soft power switching and straightforward power connections and splicing as features of the FBL range.
Manufacturer-Listed Applications
Freeze protection applications for water pipelines.
Temperature maintenance for petrochemical plant applications.
Temperature maintenance for gas plant installations.
Key Product Features
Thermal output varies in response to temperature along the cable.
Manufacturer-described independent output control along the cable length.
SOLCO identifies resistance to overheating or burning when the cable overlaps.
Can be cut to the installation length required.
Soft switching is identified by the manufacturer for energy saving and longer service time.
CF jacket option is intended for exposure to organic chemicals or corrosive environments.
