Important Installation Points

1. Faulty electrical installation can cause
a short circuit or an electric shock. To
ensure the best possible protection
of people, animals and equipment,
a 30 mA RCD MUST be tted. Always
Observe the specic regulations for
your country.

2. The heating cable may only be
connected to a 230VAC supply.

3. The heating cable MUST be installed as
per installation manual.

4. The heating cable must be connected
by a qualied electrician in accordance
with the current wiring regulations.

5. Do not shorten or allow the heating
element to touch or cross at any point.

6. If the cable is too long due to a project
planning mistake, it must not be wound
around the tube in narrow swirls as this
will cause overheating. (The standard
temperature is 65°C).

7. The heating cable must be installed in
such a manner that it is not accessible
to animals or children.

8. Do not install the Frost Protection cable
if the ambient temperature is below

-10°C .

9. Do not install the Frost Protection
cable on pipes with any other heat

source which may cause overheating and
damage the cable.

10. Do not use metal ties to secure the cable.

11. The heating cable connection (plug) must

not come into contact with water or other
liquids.

12.

Ensure that the thermistor at the end
of the cable does not come under
mechanical stress. Neither should the
thermistor be bent or squeezed by hand
or by any tool.

13. If you discover that the heating cable is
damaged, immediately switch o the
230VAC supply and replace the heating
cable.

14. Before installing the heating cable, ensure
area around the pipe is freely accessible
and not obstructed. Always protect the
heating element against sharp edges, oil
or heat.

15. Ensure that the heating cable is
positioned at least 30mm from ammable
materials for re prevention reasons.
Never place the heating cable in the
vicinity of explosive substances, objects
or gases.

16. Do not energise the heating cable while it
is coiled up . This may result in damage to
the cable due to overheating.

Safety Guidelines

Incorrect design, handling, installation, could damage the system and may result in inadequate
frost protection or electric shock. To minimize these risks and to ensure that the system performs
reliably, read and carefully follow the information, warnings, and instructions in this guide.

Ensure that the heaters are connected by a qualied electrician as per the current wiring
regulations and are protected by a 30mA RCD at all times.

Products Information

Application

The Frost Protection heating cable is designed for heating PVC or metal water pipes down to

-20°C at 230VAC according to protection class 1.

The thermistor ensures that the supply of electrical energy is reduced to the minimum
amount required. For protection against frost ,the thermistor will not switch on the heating
cable until the ambient temperature falls below 5°C.
A relatively large switching band ensures that entire pipe warms up so that the supply
will only be interrupted when the temperature exceeds 15°C. This reduces the amount of
switching on and o, allowing the thermistor to operate without any trouble over a long
period of time.
