• Installation of ECpipeheat 10 (SLPH-10) in
pipes is energy-saving, because the heating
cable is in direct contact with the fluid that is
to be heated.
• Do not use the heating cable in pipes with
inletwater pressure above 1 MPa (10 bar).
Please note that in this case the heating cable
must be connected via a fault current relay
(RCD), and it must be possible to disconnect
the heating cable.
• Never
install the heating cable in taps and
valves.
• Never
switch on power, before the pipe is filled.
• If the heating cable is damaged during instal-
lation, it
must
be replaced.
• When the heating cable is installed in pipes,
the pipe or insulation should be clearly
marked with a warning.
