Application . . .
MIQ high performance mineral insulated
heating cables are used extensively for high temperature maintenance, high temperature
exposure and / or high watt density applications which exceed the limitations of
thermoplastic insulated cables. MIQ construction is ideally suited for Division I
hazardous locations, and the resistance configurations available can provide tracing for
pipes up to 1 mile (1.6 km) long from a single power supply point.
Product Features . . .
Thermon's MIQ range of mineral insulated
cables are manufactured using Alloy 825. Alloy 825 is a high nickel / chromium alloy which
is ideally suited for high temperature service and offers exceptional resistance to stress
corrosion in chloride, acid, salt and alkaline environments. Other sheath materials and
resistances are available for specific applications. Contact Thermon for details.
