To be used with type C circuit breakers in accordance with IEC 60898-1 standard.

The Freezstop Low Voltage Wide is a self-regulating heating cable ideal for frost protection and temperature maintenance of pipes and tanks in the construction and refrigeration sectors. Thanks to its self-regulating technology, it can be custom-cut on-site without complex calculations, ensuring operation without overheating or damage, even in case of overlap.

Available with a corrosion-resistant thermoplastic jacket (FLVw-CT) or a fluoropolymer jacket for more aggressive environments (FLVw-CF), it installs easily without special tools, using convenient connection kits.

The Freezstop Low Power FLVw self-regulating heating cables are used in the following sectors:

-Chemical & petrochemical

-Outdoor infrastructure

-Construction and building

-Commercial and industrial refrigeration

-Water treatment and fluid networks

-Food industry

-Industries
