Electric heating cable is used for heating liquid caustic soda storage in winter

Among many industrial raw materials, liquid alkali plays an important role. However, in the low temperature environment in winter, the storage of liquid alkali faces many challenges. At this time, electric heating tape, with its unique advantages, provides a reliable heating solution for the storage of liquid alkali in winter.

Difficulties in storing liquid alkali in winter

Liquid alkali, that is, sodium hydroxide solution, is widely used in chemical, metallurgical, textile and other industries. However, liquid alkali will crystallize and solidify at low temperatures, which will not only affect its fluidity, but also may cause damage to storage equipment. In addition, low temperature may also cause changes in the concentration of liquid alkali, affecting its use effect. Therefore, in winter, how to ensure the stability of the storage temperature of liquid alkali has become an urgent problem to be solved.

Working principle and characteristics of electric heating cable

Electric heating cable is a heating device that converts electrical energy into thermal energy. It consists of a conductive core wire, an insulating layer, a metal shielding layer and an outer sheath. When current passes through the conductive core wire, the heat generated is transferred to the outer sheath through the insulating layer and the metal shielding layer, and then the outer sheath transfers the heat to the heated object.

Electric heating cables have the following characteristics:

1. Uniform temperature: Electric heating cables can generate heat evenly, ensuring that the temperature of the heated object is evenly distributed, avoiding local overheating or overcooling.

2. Accurate temperature control: The heating temperature can be accurately controlled according to the needs of the heated object to ensure that the liquid alkali is always within the appropriate storage temperature range.

3. Easy installation: Electric heating cables can be customized according to the shape and size of the storage equipment, without large-scale construction and modification, and the installation process is simple and fast.

4. Energy saving and environmental protection: Electric heating cables have high energy utilization rate and can directly convert electrical energy into thermal energy, reducing energy waste. At the same time, it does not produce any pollutants and is environmentally friendly.
