The heat strip is used for freezing insulation of water valve

During the cold season, the water valve is at risk of freezing, which can lead to failure and damage to the piping system. The appearance of the tropical zone provides an effective solution for the antifreeze insulation of the water valve. This paper will discuss the function, selection, installation and maintenance of the trace belt in the antifreeze and heat preservation of the water valve.

The role of the tropics

A tracer is an electric heating product that generates heat by passing an electric current through a conductor to heat an attached object. In the water valve antifreeze insulation, the main role of the tropical zone is:

1. Prevent freezing: Keep the temperature around the water valve above the freezing point by continuous or intermittent heating to prevent the internal liquid from freezing.

2. Protect the pipeline: prevent the expansion and rupture of the pipeline caused by the freezing of the water valve, and protect the integrity of the entire pipeline system.

3. Maintenance function: Ensure that the water valve is normally opened and closed in a cold environment, without affecting the continuity and stability of the water supply.

With tropical options

It is very important to choose the appropriate tracing belt for the antifreeze insulation of the water valve. When choosing, the following factors should be considered:

1. Temperature range: Select a tropical zone that can provide enough heat according to the lowest local temperature to ensure that the water valve can work normally in extreme weather.

2. Power requirements: Consider the power supply voltage and power of the tracing belt to ensure compatibility with the existing power system.

3. Installation environment: according to the environment where the water valve is located (indoor, outdoor, underground, etc.), select a companion belt with the corresponding protection level, such as waterproof, anti-corrosion, etc.

4. Control system: Select a tracing belt with a temperature controller to adjust the heating temperature according to actual needs to achieve energy-saving operation.

Installation of the accompanying belt

The installation of the tracer requires professional technicians to ensure safety and effectiveness. Installation steps typically include:

1. Preparation: Clean the surface of the water valve, ensure that there is no oil, dust and other impurities, and provide a good foundation for pasting the tropical belt.

2. Lay the companion belt: evenly wrap the companion belt around the water valve, taking care not to cross or overlap, so as to avoid local overheating.

3. Fix the tracking belt: use special tape or fixture to fix the tracking belt on the water valve to ensure that it is stable.

4. Wiring connection: Connect the power cord of the companion belt to the thermostat, and connect and ground it through a professional electrician.

5. System test: After the installation is completed, the power test is carried out to check whether the tracing belt is working normally and whether the temperature control is accurate.

With tropical maintenance

In order to ensure the long-term effective operation of the tracer, regular maintenance checks are essential. Maintenance work includes:

1. Regular inspection: Regularly check whether there is damage, aging or loose wiring of the companion belt.

2. Cleaning and maintenance: Regularly clean the surface of the companion belt and water valve, remove dust and dirt, and maintain good heat dissipation performance.

3. Functional testing: Regular functional testing to ensure that the heating function of the temperature controller and tracing zone is normal.

In short, the trace belt plays a key role in the water valve antifreeze and heat preservation. Through the correct selection, installation and maintenance, the normal operation of the water valve can be effectively guaranteed and many problems caused by freezing can be avoided. Let us pay attention to the application of the companion belt, escort the stable operation of the water valve and the safety of the pipeline system, so that it can better serve life and production.
