Since 1991 eltherm consistently continued to extend its production of the most vital components for heat tracing systems. The generation of heat in all areas related to trace heating relies on heating cables or heating tapes. In this specific field of technology eltherm specially focuses on the production of high-quality heating cables.
The portfolio encompasses resistance heating cables, self-regulating heating cables, and parallel heating cables with resistance wire as well as MI-cables. All resistance heating cables are insulated by a fluoropolymer outer jacket. We lag, for instance, a stranded or spirally wound heat conductor with a PTFE tape. This method guarantees high temperature resistance up to 300 °C, high flexibility, optimal chemical resistance, unlimited aging stability and highest electric strength. The production of endless cable lengths is another benefit of this manufacturing technology.
One of eltherm’s special products are high temperature resistance heating cables or tapes featuring an insulation made from glass fibre or quartz fibre which are suitable for temperature ranges up to about 800 °C. For higher temperatures up to 1000 °C cables we provide cables with mineral wool insulation.
The portfolio has been completed by self-regulating heating cables. Worldwide only 10 heating cable suppliers master this technology, eltherm being the only one in Germany. Thanks to decades of experience eltherm has achieved a quality level ranking on top of the world market.
Almost all eltherm heating cables are approved for use in hazardous areas.
