Harbor District Electric Heat Trace For Ballast Water Mineral Insulated Cable

Harbor District Electric Heat Trace For Ballast Water Mineral Insulated Armour Cable

Harbor District Electric Heat Trace for Ballast Water Mineral Insulated Armour Cable is a technical heating system with the core heating element of mineral insulated heating cable to secure the ballast water from icing and to maintain a certain temperature about 30 ℃. It has been widely used for the harbor district of many projects. 

 

Ship ballast water refers to the amount of water that is injected into the bottom of a ship as the center of gravity to make the ship in a seaworthy state.
