HIGH TEMPERATURE CONSTANT
WATTAGE HEATING CABLE
The KE cable heating element is
tension wrapped and covered
with two layers of nonflammable
polyimide film applied in reverse
directions, then heat fused for
moisture protection. A stainless
steel and tinned copper sheath is
then added for additional protection
and electrical ground return path.
The sheath is enclosed in a minimum
20 mil PFA abrasion and chemical
resistant extruded jacket.

KE cable is a low
Watt density electrical resistance
heater. It is designed for freeze
protection, viscosity and high
temperature process control in
Class 1, Groups B, C, and D,
Division 2 Classified Areas as well
as in corrosive environments. KE is
used in asphalt plants, oil refineries,
mines, chemical and petrochemical
processing areas, other locations
where corrosive atmospheres can
occur. KE is equally suitable for
applications in severe arctic cold.

Price per foot. When ordering specify desired length in feet. 7.6 m (25') minimum.
**
Maximum circuit lengths include end-to-end voltage variation of 10%. Longer runs may be
used. Lengths are based on cable operating temperatures of 300°F. To complete your system
the following accessories are recommended: (1) Termination kits for KE cable (2) control
options - see pages 173 to 183 for a complete selection of controllers and thermostats.
Ordering Example: KE8-120, quantity of 100, high temperature, constant wattage heating
cable, 8 W/foot, 120 Vac, $600.
CAUTION AND WARNING!
Fire and electrical shock may result
if products are used improperly or
installed or used by non-qualified
personnel. See inside back cover
for additional warnings.
