begin your work.
Make sure that you do not exceed the maximum heating circuit
length for the trace heater type you use. Refer to the design
guide of the heating system.
Preparation of the trace heater
WARNING
Risk of short cuts and/or material damage. Keep the trace heater
ends dry before and during installation. Observe the trace heater’s
installation instructions.
Unroll the required trace heater in a straight line and cut to the
correct length. Cut off the trace heater ensuring a straight cut.
Slide on the threaded cap and the clamping sleeve.
Remove 1 5/8″ (42 mm) of the outer jacket from the end of the
trace heater.
Slide the clamping sheet over the grounding braid right up to the
outer jacket.
Draw the grounding braid back over the clamping sheet.
Make sure that the clamping sleeve’s orientation is correct in order
that the blades fit into the designated slots.
