One-Trace is a self-regulating semi-conductive heating cable for commercial and light industrial use, including freeze protection and temperature maintenance of pipes and surfaces. Typical applications include roof and gutter heating against snow and ice, anti-condensation of windows and mirrors, and frost protection of tanks and troughs. Its output adjusts automatically to the surface temperature and it will not overheat or burn out, even when overlapped. The jacket is UV resistant, it can be cut to length on site and it runs on 220-250 V.
When accurately and optimally designed, a self-regulating semi-conductive system adjusts itself, so in practice the operator needs no special maintenance or control over the entire operating life of at least 25 years. It is also highly energy-efficient: by drawing exactly the power needed at any moment, it uses far less energy than constant-wattage or steam tracing systems.
