Electric Heat Tracing Technical Solution for Liquefied Natural Gas Industry heat tracing has the function of temperature control, which can self-adjust the temperature demand, that is, when the temperature is lower than the set value, the heat tracing will automatically open, and when the temperature is too high, the power supply will automatically shut down.
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) plays a very important role in modern life. Under the condition of low temperature in winter, the liquefied condensate and water in natural gas are easy to cause freezing and blocking pipelines, which affects normal supply of natural gas to production and life.In order to alleviate the contradiction between supply and demand of natural gas, many liquefied natural gas companies use electric heat tracing products to take anti-freezing measures, which can ensure the stable supply of natural gas.
Liquefied natural gas uses electric tracing heat preservation
measures, which can be directly wound on the pipelines and valves
of liquefied natural gas, and used with various accessories.
Electric heat tracing can generate electricity to compensate the
heat loss of the pipeline, and then wrap insulation cotton or felt
to play the role of heat storage and insulation, forming a complete
electric heat tracing and insulation system.
Because liquefied natural gas belongs to explosive media and
located in outdoor humid area, it is necessary to consider the
problems of explosion-proof, protection and corrosion protection
when choosing electric heating. Considering comprehensively, it is
recommended to choose low-temperature explosion-proof
anti-corrosion electric heat tracing products. This electric heat
tracing can effectively eliminate static electricity and resist
external machinery to touch the environment. There is also a layer
of anti-corrosion coat with good protection and anti-corrosion
performance.This type of electric heat tracing is mainly used in
heat preservation places with explosion-proof and anti-corrosion
requirements.
Liquefied natural gas electric heat tracing is made of flame
retardant materials, which has high safety. It will be more
reliable with the addition of shielding layer and anticorrosive
outer sheath.After electric tracing heating, the heating
temperature is uniform, which reduces the probability of
accident.In addition, electric heat tracing can be arbitrary shear,
will not affect the use of the effect.Liquefied natural gas heat
tracing can also be installed superposition, simple and convenient,
easy to install and dismantle, improve the efficiency of
maintenance equipment.
Liquefied natural gas electric heating has a wide range of
applications, with the characteristics of safety and reliability,
environmental protection and energy saving, uniform heating, long
service life, suitable for pipeline, equipment and containers of
temperature control, heat tracing, heat preservation, heating.
