它是一种电热功率随系统温度自调的带状限温伴热器。
即电缆本身具有自动限温,并随着被加热体系的温度变化能自动调整发热功率的功能,以保证工作体系始终稳定在设定的最佳操作温区正常运行。
1.1 工作原理温控伴热电缆的电热元件,是在两根平行金属母线之间均匀的挤包一层PTC材料(半晶高聚物与炭黑的共混物)制成的芯带。
PTC 材料经熔融挤出、冷却定型之后,分散其中的炭微粒形成无数纤细的导电炭网络。
当它们跨接在两根平行母线上时,就构成芯带的PTC 并联回路。
电缆一端的两根母线与电源接通时,电流从一根母线横向流过PTC材料层到达另一根母线形成并联回路。
PTC层就是连续并联在母线之间的电阻发热体,将电能转化成热能,对操作系统进行伴热保温。
当芯带温度升到相应的高阻区时,电阻大到几乎阻断电流的程度,芯带的温度将达到高限不再升高(即自动限温)。
与此同时,芯带通过护套向温度较低的被加热体系传热,达到稳态时单位时间传递的热量等于电缆的电功率。
电缆的输出功率主要受控于传热过程以及被加热体系的温度。

INTRODUCTIONThe HWAT system is a hot water temperature maintenance system that utilizes an electronic controller, self-regulating electric heating cables, and an easy-to-install set of connection kits to provide commercial buildings with immediate hot water at the tap without the use of a water recirculation system.Recirculation systems require the water heater temperature to be at least five degrees above the maintain temperature to compensate for the heat that is lost in the recirculation loop. With HWAT systems, the water in the supply pipe is maintained at a constant temperature along the entire length of the supply pipe so heating the water above the maintain temperature is not required. Recirculation systems also require return lines, pumps, and balancing valves, all of which are all unnecessary with HWAT.A key component of the HWAT system is the HWAT controller. In addition to providing flexible temperature control, the controllers provide energy savings; a heat-up cycle that increases the water temperature in stagnant pipes; Building Management System (BMS) interface; alarm relay to signal power, temperature, or communication problems; a water heater sensor function; and nine predefined programs that can be customized by the user.This step-by-step design guide provides the tools necessary to design a nVent RAYCHEM Hot Water Temperature Maintenance System (HWAT).

Incorrectdesign, handling, installation, or maintenance of any of the system componentscan cause underheating or overheating of the pipe or damage to the heating cablesystem and may result in system failure, electric shock, or fire. The guidelinesand instructions contained in this guide are important. Follow them carefully tominimize these risks and to ensure that the HWAT system performs reliably.Pay special attention to safety warnings identified as WARNING.Ground Fault ProtectionTo minimize the danger of fire from sustained electrical arcing if the heatingcable is damaged or improperly installed, and to comply with nVent requirements,agency certifications, and national electrical codes, ground fault equipmentprotection must be used on each heating cable branch circuit. Arcing may notbe stopped by conventional circuit breakers. The HWAT-ECO-GF and ACS-30controllers meet the electrical code requirements for ground fault equipmentprotection.Scald ProtectionHWAT systems present an increased risk of scalding due to the high water Array temperature. Pay special attention to the scald warning to the left.Design RequirementsTo comply with warranty requirements, the design and installation of the HWATsystem must be in accordance with this guide and the additional documentslisted below:• HWAT-ECO-GF Installation and Operations Manual (H60223)• HWAT System Installation and Operations Manual (H57548)• Rayclic Connection Kit Installation Instructions (H55388 and H55092)Installation documents are shipped with the respective products and are alsoavailable on our website at /RAYCHEM.SYSTEM OVERVIEWA complete HWAT system includes one or more HWAT-ECO-GF or ACS-30electronic controllers, HWAT-P1 or HWAT-R2 heating cable and nVent RAYCHEMRayClic connection kits. Fig. 1 illustrates a typical HWAT system. The keycomponents of the system will be described in this section.Fig. 1 Typical HWAT heating cable systemHWAT Electronic ControllersThe HWAT-ECO-GF electronic controller is designed for use with a single circuit ofHWAT-P1 or HWAT-R2 self-regulating heating cable. For large hot water systemsthe ACS-30 distributed controller is available, refer to the ACS-30 data sheet(H58261) for more information.

The example details are listed below each step in red.Example 1Example 2An elementary school where 115°F (46°C) is the desired maintain temperature and no heat-up cycle is required. Piping layout showsapproximately 300 ft of pipe with two branches at the same location.A medium security prison where 115°F (46°C) is the desired maintain temperature and a 140°F (60°C) heat-up cycle is required. Pipinglayout shows approximately 700 ft of pipe with two branches at different locations.Before You BeginBefore you begin designing your HWAT system, gather this necessary information:• Desired maintain temperature • Indoor ambient temperature • Supply voltage • Piping layout • Total pipe length • Pipe diametersStep 1 Select heating cableUse Table 2 to select the appropriate system temperature setting. For more information on heat-up cycles, refer to the HWAT-ECO-GF Installation and Operations Manual (H 60223) or ACS-30 Programming Guide (H 58692). Heating Cable Catalog NumberBefore beginning, take a moment to understand the structure underlying heating cable catalog numbers. You will refer to this numbering convention throughout the product selection process. Your goal is to determine the catalog number for the product that best suits your needs.Catalog number: HWAT -P 1 or R 2Voltage P 1 = 120 VR 2 = 208, 240, 277 VFig. 5 Heating cable catalog numberRecord the following information: • Desired maintain temperature (°F/°C) _____________• Indoor ambient temperature (°F/°C) _____________• Supply voltage (V) _____________• Heat-up cycle (Yes/No) _____________• Temperature (°F/°C)_____________Example: Heating Cable Selection Example 1 Example 2Desired maintain temperature 115°F (46°C) 115°F (46°C)Ambient temperature 70°F (21°C) 70°F (21°C)Supply voltage208 Vac208 VacHeat-up cycle required No Yes Heat-up cycle temperature n/a 140°F (60°C)Table 2 HWAT System Temperature Range* For additional information on heat-up cycles, refer to the “Expanded HWAT-ECO-GFElectronic Controller Capabilities” section of the HWAT-ECO-GF Installation and Operations Manual (H 60223).Heating Cable Selection ExampleHeating cable selected HWAT-R 2Step 2 Lay out the heating cableThe piping layout of your building may require more than one HWAT circuit. To determine the number of circuits, group your piping by maintain temperature and location, a step that may require you to consult the plumbing and/or electricalengineer. Calculate the total length of pipe in each group, allowing one foot of heating cable for each foot of pipe. The length of heating cable in each group must not exceed the circuit lengths listed in Table 3.In Step 4, you will calculate the additional cable required to install the connection kits. This will increase the total length of heating cable and may require the needfor additional circuits.Table 3 Maximum Circuit LengthNote: Assumes a minimum water temperature of 50°F (10°C) at startupExample: Lay out circuits Example HWAT heating cable selected HWAT-R 2Length of pipe 700 ft Number of circuits 2Circuit breaker size30 AmpStep 3 Select connection kits and accessoriesHWAT systems are approved and warranted only as a complete system. The appropriate RayClic, FTC or HWT connection kits must be used. Use Table 4 to select the connection kits and accessories necessary for your HWAT system. Refer to the RayClic Connection System data sheet (H 57545) and the FTC Heat Shrinkable Connection Kits Datasheet (H 58159) in the Technical Data section for more information on the products.The appropriate numbers of end seals are included with each connection kit.Table 4 Connection Kits and Accessories* To minimize cable waste, nVent recommends that one RayClic-S be ordered for every 500 feet of cable.Example: Select connection kits and accessories Example Piping layout determined that the following 2 RayClic-PC connection kits and accessories are required. 2 RayClic-T 14 GT-6670 ETLStep 4 Finalize circuit lengthAdditional cable is required for future access at each connection kit. Add the additional cable, as detailed in Table 5, to the estimated circuit lengths from Step 2. Confirm that the maximum lengths shown in Table 3 have not been exceeded. If your circuit lengths are greater than those shown, reconfigureyour heating cable layout to allow for additional circuits.Table 5 Additional Cable Required for Each Connection KitExample: Finalize circuit length ExampleCircuit 1* Circuit 2*Length of heating cable per circuit 350 ft 350 ft Additional cable required RayClic-PC 2 ft 2 ft RayClic-T3 ft 3 ft RayClic-X n/a n/aTotal length of heating cable required355 ft355 ft* In this example, the circuits were evenly divided. Equal circuit lengths are notrequired.Step 5 Select control configurationFor single circuit applications, choose the HWAT-ECO-GF controller. For multi-circuit applications, choose the ACS-30 controller.Example: Select control method Example 1 Example 2TypeIndividual circuit Multi-circuit Number of circuits 1up to 260ControllerHWAT-ECO-GF ACS-30Step 6 Select insulationSelect the size of thermal insulation from Table 6. You will need to know the length and diameter of each pipe used in your application.For pipes 1 1/4 inches and smaller, use insulation that is oversized by 1/4 inch to allow room for insulating over the heating cables. Table 6 specifies IPS (Iron Pipe Size) insulation, which has a greater inner diameter than CTS (Copper Tube Size) insulation.For pipes 3 inches and larger, the thickness of insulation can either be equal to the pipe diameter with a single heating cable or 1/3 the pipe diameter with two heating cables. For example, a 6 inch pipe with 6 inches of insulation and one run of heating cable is equivalent to a 6 inch pipe with 2 inches of insulation and tworuns of heating cable.Table 6 Fiberglass Insulation Selectionpipe diameter with one run of heating cable or 1/3 the pipe diameter with two runs of heating cable.Example: Select InsulationCopper pipe size (in)IPS insulation size (in)Insulation thickness (in)Example 13/41111 1/411 1/21 1/21 1/2Example 211 1/412222 1/22 1/22 1/2Step 7 Complete Bill of MaterialsYou are now ready to compile a Bill of Materials.

电伴热运行可靠性性能分析及应用、电伴热应用情况介绍:电伴热作为给设备过冬提供保障的保温材料得到了广泛应用,个别作业区的冬防保温全部依赖电伴热带。
随着电伴热带的大量使用,电伴热带的安全平稳运行是冬季能否安全平稳运行的重要保障。
而电伴热出现了一系列问题,,也给冬季安全运行带来了极大的隐患。
运行时间越长出现的问题就越多,一方面要保障冬季安全运行就必须保障电伴热带的安全运行;另一方面电伴热带价格昂贵,增加了昂贵的成本。
如何确保电伴热带的安全平稳运行,已成为迫不及待的问题。
三、电伴热带运行中出现的问题:电伴热系统经过几年的运行后都会或多或少的出现下列问题:1)、安装不规所造成的各种问题:(1)、安装的电伴热带没有紧贴保温设备管壁安装,以及没有按规定方法缠绕(图1,图2),导致这些电伴热带没有起到伴热效果,无法达到需求的伴热效果。
、电伴热平稳运行的重要性:图1图22)、安装人员装保温层时,在打孔时,将伴热带打穿(图3),导致开关跳闸。
图33)、制做电伴热首头不合规范(图4),导致开短路跳闸。
图44)、电伴热安装未考虑防水,尾端进水(图5)短路,导致开关跳闸。
尾端进水短路图5(5)、施工人员在安装电伴热接线盒时,没考虑接线盒进水的进水的可能,造成接线盒进水结冰(图6),最终造成端子排短路。
进水接冰短路图6(6)、在包保温铁皮时,电伴热没有完全固定好,造成伴热带与保温铁皮相互磨损,最终造成伴热带破损(图7)短路。
破损图72)、同一根电伴热带出现一段热一段不热等现象。
3)、弯曲的电伴热出现了不热的现象。
4)、电伴热老化速度快。
5)、电伴热短路造成着火。
6)、使用时间长的电伴热带发热效果降低。
7)、电伴热接线盒容易进水,造成伴热工作不正常。
8)、安装时将绝缘层损坏。
四、问题分析自限式电伴热带内部都是相当于无数个发热电阻的并联回路(图8)组成自调控发热内芯。
从下图中的“冷、暖、热”区域可以看出在低温时导通路径增多,从而允许更大的电流流经母线,在高温时聚合物扩张,导通路径减少,从而减少了伴热线的功率输出(图9)。

Theseapplications require long electrical circuit lengths, usually with a single electricalpower point. nVent RAYCHEM provides a wide range of industry-proven solutionsfor these applications. Extreme long lines are usually transfer lines betweenprocessing plants or to storage or transportation facilities. Tank farms, piersfor ocean transport vessels, and pipes between petrochemical facilities are allexamples of applications for which longline heat tracing may be used. Even if aprocessing plant uses steam for in-plant heat tracing, electrical tracing may bebeneficial for these transfer lines.Typical applications for longline heating systems include:• Water and steam condensate lines• Water supply and injection lines• Sewage lines• Natural gas gathering lines (condensation prevention)• Crude oil gathering lines (viscosity control)• Off-site crude and fuel oil lines• Temperature-sensitive lines• Product transfer linesLongline tracing systems can be complex to design and install. For this reasonnVent RAYCHEM offers several technologies to choose from, thus providing thebest cost optimization for your project. These technologies are:• Self-regulating heating cables• Series resistance mineral insulated heating cables• Series-resistance polymer insulated heating cables• Skin-effect tracing systems (STS)All longline heat tracing should be designed with engineering support from nVent.For assistance in selecting the best technology for the application, contact yournVent representative.SELF-REGULATING HEATING CABLESnVent RAYCHEM LBTVFig. 1 LBTV heating cableLBTV heating cables provide electrical freeze protection and temperaturemaintenance up to 150°F (65°C) for long piping systems in both nonhazardousand hazardous locations. This single-phase, self-regulating heating cableprovides freeze protection and low-temperature maintenance for medium-lengthapplications. The parallel circuit design results in a cable that can be cut to lengthin the field.Within the circuit length limitations, the heat output per foot is independent ofcircuit length. The cable is constructed with 10 AWG copper bus wires, permittinglonger circuit length with less voltage drop than the 16 AWG BTV cable bus wires.These heating cables maintain process temperatures up to 150°F (65°C) and canwithstand intermittent exposure to temperatures up to 185°F (85°C). They areapproved for use in nonhazardous and hazardous locations, including areas wherecorrosives may be present.Refer to the data sheets for more detailed information. Data sheets can be foundon /RAYCHEM, or the Technical data sheet section of the IndustrialHeat Tracing Solutions Products & Services Catalogue (H56550).Fig. 2 MI heating cablenVent RAYCHEM mineral insulated heating cables are used in longline applications where high maintain temperatures and/or high exposure temperatures exist, or high power output is required. MI heating cable is used in many applications, including transfer lines. It is rugged and economical, and can be used for lines up to 5000+ feet (1500+ m).A 600-Vac Delta or Wye electrical configuration balances the electrical load well. Designs must be done on a case-by-case basis because the total resistance must be matched to the transformer characteristics.Refer to the Mineral Insulated Cables design guide (H56884) for more detailed information.circuit lengths exceed the ratings of conventional parallel-resistance heating cables and a single power source is needed. Ohmic heating of the conductor provides the heat in this series circuit heating cable. Engineering design by nVent is required since the wattage output depends on the total circuit length and the voltage applied.SC cables are available in single-, double-, and triple-conductor configurations for single- or three-phase system designs. The resistance conductors are electrically isolated with high-temperature, heavy-wall fluoropolymers; a grounding braid; and a final fluoropolymer jacket. Maximum exposure temperatures are 400°F (204°C) for SC cables, 482°F (250°C) for SC/H cables, and 195°F (90°C) for SC/F cables. SC cables are capable of supporting circuit lengths up to 12,000 feet (3659 m) with one power supply point, and voltages up to 600 Vac.SKIN-EFFECT HEAT-TRACING SYSTEMnVent RAYCHEM STSFig. 4 Skin-effect Tracing System (STS)nVent RAYCHEM skin-effect tracing systems (STS) are custom engineered bynVent for each unique application and are ideally suited for long transfer pipelinesover one mile (1.6 km) in length, and for individual circuit lengths up to 31 miles(50 km) in length. Consideration is given to transformer power requirements,control and monitoring designs, conductor wire selection, and the installation ofthe complete system. In the STS heating system, heat is generated on the innersurface of a ferromagnetic heat tube that is thermally coupled to the pipe to beheat traced. An electrically insulated, temperature-resistant conductor is installedinside the heat tube and connected to the tube at the far end. The tube andconductor are connected in series to an AC voltage source. This method of heatingis called skin-effect heating because the return path of the circuit current is pulledto the inner surface (approximately 1 mm) of the heat tube by both the skin effectand the proximity effect between the heat tube and the conductor. The outsidesurface of the heat tube is at ground potential, while the inner surface of the tubecarries full current.Insidesurface toconductorOutsidesurfaceto earthFig. 5 nVent RAYCHEM STS cross sectionThe STS circuit impedance is mainly resistive, generating heat in the heat tubewall and, to a lesser extent, in the insulated conductor. Additional heat results fromeddy currents induced in the heat tube wall.The allowable circuit length is determined by the power output, heat tube size,conductor size, and the carrier pipe temperature. STS cables are available in twodifferent temperature ratings, 302°F (150°C) and 482°F (250°C), and three voltageratings, 2,500V, 5,000V and 10,000V. These cables are also available in differentconductor sizes for design and installation efficiency. The highest installed costcomponent in electrical heat-tracing systems is often the power distributionsystem. This is especially true for long lines where power feeds are unavailable.A nVent RAYCHEM STS system minimizes the number of power supply pointsrequired by offering the longest circuit lengths available to the industry.LONGLINE SYSTEM SELECTIONnVent provides a broad range of options for heat-tracing long lines. Decisionvariables include maintenance temperature, heat-loss circuit length, maximumexposure temperature, power availability, piping system support and construction,thermal insulation k values, and local codes and standards.

Reinstall the filler bolt and tighten it securely.If Honda MTF is not available, you may use an API service SG, SH or SJ grade motor oil with a viscosity of SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40 as a temporary replacement. An SG grade is preferred, but an SH or SJ grade may be used if SG is not available. However, motor oil does not contain the proper additives and continued use can cause stiffer shifting. Replace as soon as convenient.The transmission should be drained and refilled with new fluid according to the time and distance recommen-dations in the maintenance schedule.Brake and Clutch FluidCheck the fluid level in the reser-voirs monthly. There are up to two reservoirs, depending on the model.They are:Brake fluid reservoir (all models)Clutch fluid reservoir(manual transmission only)The brake fluid should be replaced according to the time and distance recommendations in the mainte-nance schedule.FILLER BOLTCorrect level5-speed Manual TransmissionMaintenanceBrake and Clutch FluidAlways use Genuine Honda DOT 3brake fluid. If it is not available, you should use only DOT 3 or DOT 4fluid, from a sealed container, as a temporary replacement. However,the use of any non-Honda brake fluid can cause corrosion and decrease the life of the system. Have the brake system flushed and refilled with Honda DOT 3 brake fluid as soon as possible.Brake fluid marked DOT 5 is not compatible with your car's braking system and can cause extensive damage.Brake SystemThe fluid level should be between the MIN and MAX marks on the side of the reservoir. If the level is at or below the MIN mark, your brake system needs attention. Have the brake system inspected for leaks or worn brake pads.Clutch SystemThe fluid should be between the MIN and MAX marks on the side of the reservoir. If it is not, add brake fluid to bring it up to that level. Use the same fluid specified for the brake system.Low fluid level can indicate a leak in the clutch system. Have this system inspected as soon as possible.MaintenanceMAXMIN MAXM INPower SteeringOn DX model and CX model with automatic transmissionCheck the level when the engine is cold. Look at the side of the reservoir. The fluid should be between the UPPER LEVEL and LOWER LEVEL. If it is below the LOWER LEVEL, add power steering fluid to the UPPER LEVEL.Always use Genuine Honda Power Steering Fluid. If it is not available,you may use another power steering fluid as an emergency replacement.However, continued use can cause increased wear and poor steering in cold weather. Have the powersteering system flushed and refilled with Honda PSF as soon as possible.A low power steering fluid level can indicate a leak in the system. Check the fluid level frequently and have the system inspected as soon as possible.Turning the steering wheel to full left or right lock and holding it there can damage the power steering pump.MaintenanceUPPER LEVELLOWER LEVELNOTICEAir Cleaner ElementThe air cleaner element should be replaced according to the time and distance recommendations in the maintenance schedule.ReplacementThe air cleaner element is inside the air cleaner housing in the engine compartment.To replace it:1.
