Heating cable with temperature sensor – Reliable frost protection for water pipes

Effective frost damage protection – The professional solution for water pipes

Protect your water pipes reliably from frost and costly pipe bursts. The self-regulating heating cable with integrated temperature sensor automatically adjusts its heating output to the ambient temperature, ensuring optimal frost protection with minimal energy consumption.

Technical highlights at a glance

Intelligent self-regulation for maximum efficiency

• Automatic Temperature Adjustment: The heating cable independently regulates heating output based on outside temperature
• Integrated Temperature Sensor: Precise temperature monitoring for demand-driven operation
• Energy Efficient: Heats only when needed, saving electricity costs
• Operating Temperature Range: Activation from +3°C down to -40°C

Robust construction for long-lasting performance

• High-Quality Materials: Resistant to moisture and mechanical stress
• Protection Class IP65: Fully protected against dust and jet water
• UV Resistant: Suitable for outdoor use
• Flexible Design: Easy adaptation to various pipe diameters and installations

Application Areas

Residential Buildings & Private Households

Protection of water pipes in unheated basements, garages, outdoor areas, or under gutters. Prevents frost damage to exposed pipes.

Commercial & Industrial

Securing water pipes in warehouses, workshops, agricultural operations, or production sites with frost-prone areas.

Outdoor Facilities

Frost protection for garden water pipes, outdoor taps, irrigation systems, or water pipes in garden sheds and outbuildings.

Technical specifications

Additional technical features:

Advantages of self-regulating heating cable technology

• Cost Savings: Prevents expensive pipe bursts and water damage caused by frost
• Energy Efficiency: Automatic power adjustment reduces electricity consumption
• Maintenance-free: Once installed, the system operates fully automatically
• Safety: Overheating protection through self-regulating technology
• Flexibility: Can be cut to any length (for longer versions)

Planning recommendation for optimal frost protection

Basic rule for sizing:

• Pipe length = cable length: The heating cable is laid parallel to the pipe
• For pipe diameters over 40 mm: Spiral laying recommended
• Additional insulation: Increases efficiency and reduces energy consumption
• Frost-prone areas: Especially on exterior walls, in unheated rooms, or buried pipes

Assembly & installation

Easy installation in a few steps:

1. Preparation: Clean and dry the pipe
2. Laying: Attach heating cable parallel or spirally to the pipe
3. Fixing: Secure with supplied tape and cable ties
4. Insulation: Wrap pipe and heating cable with suitable pipe insulation
5. Commissioning: Plug into socket – the system operates automatically

Important note: Installation should be carried out according to applicable electrical installation regulations. If in doubt, we recommend hiring a qualified electrician.

Scope of delivery

• 1x self-regulating heating cable with temperature sensor (selected length)
• 1x connection cable (1.5 m) with protective earth plug
• Mounting materials (tape, cable ties)
• Assembly instructions and safety information

Sustainability & efficiency

Environmentally conscious heating technology

• Demand-driven operation: Heats only when there is an actual frost risk
• Durability: High-quality materials for years of reliable operation
• Resource protection: Prevents water loss due to pipe bursts
• Compatible with renewable energy: Can be operated with green electricity or photovoltaics

Safety Instructions

• Do not overlap or cross – risk of overheating
• Do not lay under thermal insulation materials without air circulation
• Check mains voltage before installation
• Do not use damaged cable
• Install according to VDE regulations

Choose the right cable length for your application and reliably protect your water pipes from freezing. The self-regulating heating cable combines efficiency, safety, and easy installation at an unbeatable price-performance ratio.
