Application of electric heat tracing in steel conveying pipeline

In the steel industry, the stable transmission of molten steel is the key to ensure production continuity and product quality. As the core equipment of molten steel pipeline, its heat preservation and anti-freezing work is particularly important. In recent years, with the continuous development of science and technology, electric heat tracing technology, as a recognized pipeline insulation and anti-freezing scheme, has been widely used in molten steel pipeline.

Electric heat tracing technology is a kind of use of electric energy to generate heat, through the heat tracing media (such as electric heat tracing zone) to the heat traced object (such as molten steel transmission pipe), so as to supplement the heat lost by the heat traced body in the process process, maintain the most reasonable process temperature of the flow medium. Electric heat tracing technology has the advantages of high thermal efficiency, energy saving and environmental protection, simple design, convenient construction and installation, no pollution, long service life, etc. It is an ideal pipeline insulation and anti-freezing scheme.

Compared with traditional heating methods, electric tracing technology adopts advanced electrothermal conversion technology, which can make more efficient use of electric energy and reduce energy waste. At the same time, the electric tracing belt can also be adjusted intelligently according to the actual needs of the pipeline, avoiding excessive energy consumption. In addition, electric heat tracing technology does not need to use heat tracing media such as steam or hot water, saving the use of water resources and insulation materials.

Moreover, the construction and installation of electric heat tracing technology is relatively simple, which only needs to fix the electric tracing belt on the surface of the pipeline. At the same time, the length of the electric tracer can be customized according to the length of the pipe, without the need for additional connectors or fittings. This simple installation method not only improves construction efficiency, but also reduces maintenance costs.

At the same time, electric heat tracing technology can be combined with intelligent control system to realize remote monitoring and automatic regulation. Through the intelligent control system, the temperature change of the pipeline can be monitored in real time and automatically adjusted according to needs. This intelligent management method not only improves the accuracy and stability of pipeline insulation, but also reduces the difficulty and error of manual operation.
