Detail A

1. Mount banding (not too tight) at the upper side of the

vessel or tank.

2. Push the required number of punch strips of sufficient

length between the banding and the tank vessel
wall. Hang up the punch strips to the banding. The
open side of the lips in the punch strips must point
downwards (see detail A). Space the punch strips
equally over the cir cumference of the vessel/tank
(max. spacing 750 mm).

3. Tighten the upper banding.

4. Bend the punch strips to the middle of the vessel/

tank bottom. Put a tie wire through the last slot of the
punch strips. Twist the ends of the tie wire until the
punch strips are tight against the wall and bottom (see
detail B).

5. First mount a banding at the lower side of the vessel/

tank and the other banding at a dis tance from each
other of max. 1000 mm.

6. Bend the lips of the punch strips upwards where

heating cable will be installed.

7. Place the heating cable in the upwards bended lips

(the lips are a support only and should not be
tightened over the heating cable!
).

8. Connect the heating/cold lead cables into the power

supply box.

9. With a single phase + neutral or a two phase system,

the heating cable must be laid out along the vessel/
tank wall as a loop (so two heating cables parallel to
each other).

10. With a three phase system, the end of the three

cables must be connected to the end box, where a
star connection can be made.

11. Cover the heating cable over the total length with

aluminium tape.
