Product Overview
Eltherm ELSR-W Heater Cables – Trace Heating
Eltherm ELSR-W self-regulating trace heating cables provide process temperature maintenance and frost protection to pipework, instrument lines, tanks and drums up to 100° Celsius.
The ELSR-W heater cable is frequently used to heat oil and fat lines within the food processing industry and can also be used for hot water temperature maintenance to prevent Legionella formation.

Eltherm ELSR-W heating cables provide temperature maintenance and frost protection to pipework and mechanical services in all industries – typical applications include heating process pipework, instrument lines and storage tanks to maintain viscosity or prevent frost damage as an integral work-task of plant Winterisation.
Eltherm ELSR-W cables utilise cold-applied installation components to complete the trace heating system – no requirement for “hot-working” permit applications in potentially explosive atmospheres, including Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas.
Offshore Trace Heating
Trace heating cables provide frost protection for operations and safety purposes in both safe and hazardous areas : loading and unloading pipelines, gas vapour return lines, fire protection lines, strip and cleaning pipelines, fuel oil lines, storage tanks and vessels, deck and tank cleaning lines, engine room fuel and drip lines, cross-over lines, manifolds and safety showers.
Anti-icing or de-icing of escape passages, walkways, staircases and handrails. Water pipe freeze protection is critical for production and process water pipes, fresh/potable and waste water piping and piping used for offshore fire protection systems.
