A heat tracing tape which can be cut to required lengths has a heating element comprising at least two lengths of woven or braided resistance wire each in the form of a flat strip. The strips are encased in extruded silicone rubber whereby they are spaced from one another. The strips are electrically connected at one end by a connector and the tape is provided with a power supply termination either at its other end, or at a T-branch connection, for connecting the tape to the power control system. The power control system is adjustable to set an estimated value of power required to maintain a predetermined process temperature. The system automatically adjusts the power supplied to the tape to the estimated value by means of a feedback control system. A process temperature sensor also regulates the power supplied to the tape in accordance with a sensed temperature. |
