Electrical freeze protection and process<br />

temperature maintenance for both nonhazardous<br />

and hazardous locations with a<br />

flexible cold lead.<br />

Pyrotenax mineral insulated (<strong>MI</strong>) heating<br />

cable with the PyroFLX cold lead option<br />

offers all of the long standing benefits of a<br />

metal sheathed, Alloy 825 <strong>MI</strong> heating cable,<br />

along with the added advantages of a flexible,<br />

easy-to-install cold lead section. This<br />

feature is achieved by utilizing a section of<br />

Flexible polymeric<br />

tray cable cold lead<br />

<strong>MI</strong> to polymeric<br />

tray cable transition<br />

cold-weather capable, highly impact resistant,<br />

flexible polymeric tray cable, integrated<br />

to a short segment of traditional <strong>MI</strong><br />

cold lead. Installations of PyroFLX can be<br />

performed without excessive cold lead<br />

shaping and forming, minimizing expensive<br />

on-site labour costs. Additionally, since the<br />

tray cable can be easily routed in the field,<br />

junction boxes and cable-to-cable connections<br />

can be extended to make them easily<br />

accessible for maintenance purposes,<br />

Traditional <strong>MI</strong> cold lead<br />

Available with or without quick connector<br />

(field-attachable connector shown)<br />

avoiding costly scaffolding and maintenance<br />

troubleshooting time.<br />

Pyrotenax PyroFLX cables are constructed<br />

and approved for use in nonhazardous and<br />

CID2 and Zone 2 hazardous locations.<br />

<strong>MI</strong> cable heated portion<br />

Application Reduced installation costs for series-connected cables, and where extended cold lead runs are<br />

required for power supply connections, for freeze protection and process temperature maintenance<br />

in hazardous and nonhazardous areas.<br />

Basic <strong>Heating</strong> <strong>Cable</strong> Design Configurations <strong>Heating</strong> cables with the PyroFLX cold lead option are supplied as complete factory-fabricated<br />

assemblies consisting of a <strong>MI</strong> heated section joined to a short segment of <strong>MI</strong> non-heating cold<br />

lead, which transitions into a flexible, polymeric tray cable by means of a molded splice.<br />

PyroFLX cold leads are designed for use with Alloy 825 sheathed <strong>MI</strong> heating cables. Refer to<br />

design and technical information on H56870, <strong>MI</strong> <strong>Heating</strong> <strong>Cable</strong> – Alloy 825 data sheet.<br />

In the above heating cable catalog number, the length of the heated section, standard <strong>MI</strong> cold<br />

lead and the PyroFLX cold lead are in feet. For metric lengths, the heating cable catalog number<br />

would include a suffix “M” after the length, as follows: E/32SP4583/12.2M/1800/68.1/1.5-<br />

2.1M/LS23A/X/T2.4-3.0M/RLFM<br />

Conversion from English to Metric units is: L(ft) x 0.3048 = L(m)<br />

Conversion from Metric to English units is: L(m) x 3.2808 = L(ft)<br />

For Hazardous areas, specify approval required (see above Approvals section).<br />

Ground-Fault Protection<br />

To minimize the danger of fire from sustained electrical arcing if the heating cable is damaged or<br />

improperly installed, and to comply with the requirements of Tyco <strong>Thermal</strong> <strong>Controls</strong>, agency certifications,<br />

and national electrical codes, ground-fault equipment protection must be used on<br />

each heating cable branch circuit. Arcing may not be stopped by conventional circuit protection.<br />

Many DigiTrace control and monitoring systems meet the ground-fault protection requirement.<br />
