STEP 5 – CABLE COMPONENTS
A typical heat tracing system will include cable, cable components and controls, as required.
Drexan offers 3 families of connection components. For most installations, AMIGA components
are recommended as they can connect up to three heaters to power or be used as an inline splice
(no power) or inline tee (no power). HeatShrink® kits are economical and familiar to most
contractors.

AMIGA Power / Tee / Splice
AMIGA is an advanced connection system designed for use with the Drexan
HeatTracer family of Self-Regulating PipeGuard cables. AMIGA can connect up
to three heaters to power or be used as an inline splice (no power) or inline
tee (no power).
AMIGA consists of a pipe-mounted stanchion and an enclosure (junction box)
with terminal blocks mounted on DIN rail. The AMIGA stanchion provides
ample room in which installers can manipulate heating cables, has excellent
mechanical protection for cables installed on a pipe, and permits application of
up to 4 inches (102 mm) of thermal insulation.
AMIGA is CSA/UL (CUS) certified for both non-hazardous and hazardous
locations up to Class I Division 2 (Zone 2).
