Types of Protection Jackets

The flexibility as well as the ambient conditions of the lines depends on the type of the protection jacket. There are two different types :
o Rigid lines, sheathed with plastic (PVC, TPU or PA).
o Flexible lines, encased with a corrugated plastic (PA) or metal tubing.

Electrical Heating

Depending on the application of a line, there are various types of electrical heating units available, such as self-regulating heating elements, parallel heating elements and heating elements with fixed resistance.

Advantages

o As quick and easy to install as an energy cable, which reduces installation costs.
o Available in very long lengths which reduce material costs due to fewer fittings and less material waste.
o Lower space requirement.
o Maintenance-free and well protected against mechanical damage, abrasion and corrosion.
o Approved for use in hazardous areas.

Heated Hoses carry the hot melt adhesive from a melting location to a dispensing location. Conventionally used in printing industry but it can be used in any industry requiring a deliverance of quick and pressurised delivery of hot melt substances or heated liquids. These heaters are available in varying sizes, colours and lengths.
