OBSOLETE: CL-Constant Wattage Temptrace™ for Low Temperature Maintenance

This product is no longer available from Parker. Contact us to find an alternative solution for your application.

Parflex CL Constant Wattage Temptrace™ electric trace tubing is capable of maintaining temperatures up to 250°F (121°C) and withstanding a maximum internal exposure up to 400°F (204°C) to effectively provide freeze protection, viscosity maintenance and low process temperature maintenance in applications that involve analyzer, impulse, and instrument lines, small diameter process lines, stack gas sampling lines and utility lines. The electric trace tubing consists of a process tube traced with a constant wattage heating cable, a heat transfer aluminum foil wrap for even heat distribution for precise temperature control, a non-hygroscopic glass fiber insulation for minimum heat loss, and a black, 105°C-rated, flame-resistant PVC (FR-PVC) jacket. This protective jacket safeguards the tubing against corrosive atmospheres, water, oils, acids, alkalies and most chemicals. For more information regarding tolerable temperature ranges and order details for CL Constant Wattage Temptrace™ tubing, refer to our latest literature on the Product Support tab.
