The self-regulating heating cable ELSR-W is used to heat water lines between 30-80°C and can withstand temperatures up to 100°C. It is commonly used in food processing to heat oil and fat lines and in kitchens to prevent buildup in drains. The cable self-regulates its output based on temperature and can be cut to length, making it suitable for frost protection and temperature maintenance of hot water systems to prevent Legionella growth.
