Important Safeguards and Warning
s
WarnIng: FIre anD ShOCK haZarD.
raychem heat-tracing systems must be installed cor-
rectly to ensure proper operation and to prevent shock
and fire. read these important warnings and carefully
follow all the installation instructions.
•
To minimize the danger of fire from sustained electrical
arcing if the heating cable is damaged or improperly
installed, and to comply with Thermal management
requirements, agency certifications, and national elec-
trical codes, ground-fault equipment protection must
be used on each heating cable branch circuit. arcing
may not be stopped by conventional circuit breakers.
•
approvals and performance are based on the use of
Thermal management-specified parts only. Do not sub-
stitute parts or use vinyl electrical tape.
•
Bus wires will short if they contact each other. Keep
bus wires separated.
•
Connection kits and cable ends must be kept dry before
and during installation.
•
The black heating cable core is conductive and can
short. It must be properly insulated and kept dry.
•
Damaged bus wires can overheat or short. Do not
break bus wire strands when preparing the cable for
connection.
•
Damaged heating cable can cause electrical arcing or
fire. Do not use metal attachments such as pipe straps
or tie wire. Use only Thermal management approved
tapes and cable ties to secure the cable to the pipe.
•
Do not attempt to repair or energize damaged heating
cable. remove damaged sections at once and replace
them with a new length using the appropriate raychem
splice kit. replace damaged connection kits.
•
Use only fire-resistant insulation materials such as
fiberglass wrap or flame-retardant foams.
note: Pipes are shown without insulation for illustrative
purposes only. all pipe installations must be fully cov-
ered with thermal insulation.
