The FE cable heating element is tension wrapped and covered with a fluorocarbon film and enclosed in a minimum 20 mil FEP abrasion resistant extruded jacket. This tough outer cover provides moisture and dielectric protection as well as resistance to abrasion.
A tinned copper overbraid provides additional protection and electrical ground return path.
APPLICATIONS OMEGALUX™ FE cable is a low Watt density electrical resistance heater. It is designed for freeze protection and midrange process temperature control and maintenance applications in lines periodically purged with 150 PSIG steam.

# Cable circuit module length in feet. When ordering please allow a minimum of 1 module length extra for terminations.
**Maximum Circuit Lengths include end-to-end voltage variation of 10%. Longer runs may be used. Lengths are based on cable operating temperatures of 300°F.
To complete your system the following accessories are recommended: (1) Termination kits for FE cable (see page B-31 for specifications), (2) Control options - see Section P for complete selection of controllers thermostats.
