Pre-Insulated Bundled Tubing helps maintain temperature.
Press Release Summary:
Suited for analytical and process instrumentation applications, bundled tubing is insulated with non-wicking, fibrous glass insulations and covered with PVC or urethane jacket. Electric traced bundled tubing features self-regulating electric tracer and maintains process temperatures up to 250°F. Light and Heavy steam traced bundled tubing provides freeze protection and maintains process temperatures between 50-200°F and 200-400°F, respectively.
Original Press Release:
Swagelok® Pre-Insulated Tubing Bundles Offer Significant Advantages Versus Field Traced and Insulated Tubing Systems
SOLON, Ohio (January 11, 2005)-Swagelok® electric and steam traced pre-insulated bundled tubing provides process fluid freeze protection and temperature maintenance in a variety of analytical and process instrumentation applications including impulse, process, and sampling lines.
Choose from a variety of configurations with multiple process tubes and either electric or steam tracers. The Swagelok tubing bundle is insulated with non-wicking, fibrous glass insulation and covered with a tough PVC or urethane jacket. This pre-engineered bundle can be installed more quickly and can provide more consistent thermal performance than field traced and insulated systems.
o Swagelok electric traced bundled tubing features a self-regulating electric tracer that lowers heat output as the bundle warms. It is typically used to maintain process temperatures up to 250°F (121 °C), without the need for dedicated temperature controllers.
o Swagelok light steam traced bundled tubing provides freeze protection and maintains process temperatures between 50 and 200°F (10 to 93°C). The process tubes are separated from the tracer tubes by a layer of insulation that lowers the heat transfer rate and provides a more constant temperature over longer lengths of tubing.
o In Swagelok heavy steam traced bundled tubing, the process tube is in drect contact with the tracer to provide process temperature maintenance from 200 to 400°F (93 to 204°C).
