Frostvakt 10 prevents damage and leaks caused by frost-burst pipes and water conduits. The heating cable has a pre-assembled plug that is easily connected to an earthed wall socket via a residual current device (RCD). Common applications include sewage pipes, water pipes and water meters in, for example, summerhouses, garages, greenhouses, caravans or boats. Controlled effectively with Frostvakt Control. The cable is PVC-free and is well suited for drinking water pipes. Type-approved for drinking water according to KIWA (approval 1289).

Installation
Self-regulating heating cable
Due to the fact that the heating cable is self-regulating, it cannot overheat. And it can be crossed to fit the pipe perfectly. It is parallel resistive, which means that the self-adjusting heating cable consists of two parallel wires embedded in a semiconductor material that adapts its output according to the ambient temperature. Even though it may be above zero outside and the frost prevention output is not needed, the heating cable will still be turned on. To turn it off completely, you must pull out the plug or use Frostvakt Control, which turns the cable off in temperatures above freezing point. For longer cables and internal use, control with a thermostat is always recommended.
