600 Series Hose Electrical Specifications

ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS

OPERATING VOLTAGE:

Any single phase voltage to 480 VAC. Depending on length, hoses may be ordered to operate on 208, 240 or 480 VAC, 3 phase.

POWER DENSITY:

Power density is based on the desired operating temperature, ambient temperature and size of hose. Our engineering staff will help you determine wattage necessary to maintain temperature required for your application.

POWER/CONTROL CABLE:

Standard length is 4 feet. Longer lengths are available.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL:

Series 600 Heat/Line Hoses must be controlled to maintain the desired operating temperature and to ensure operation within design limits. A sensor for the controller is installed in the hose during construction, and unless otherwise specified, is located 2 ft. from the lead end. For very close temperature control, a solid state proportional controller is recommended.

In freeze protection applications, the hose may be controlled using a built-in thermostat. If the hose current does not exceed the maximum amps allowed, the thermostat may be wired in series with the heater circuit, and will turn power on when the temperature drops to 45 degrees F (7 degrees C). In higher current applications the thermostat is used to signal an auxiliary control relay/contractor.
