Electrical Heat Tracing System Solution For Palm Oil Pipelines

Dpstar is the authorized distributor of Chromalox for electrical heat tracing in Malaysia. We are known as the trusted experts who help companies solve the world’s most demanding and complex industrial heating challenges. We understand the specific needs of your individual project and your business and in return will provide an optimized heat management system focusing on providing safe, reliable, and cost-effective heat tracing installations. Dpstar have the ability to tackle various projects at once. We have completed many projects for oil and gas sectors (upstream and downstream), chemical, petrochemical, power plants, semiconductor industries and many more.

Trace Heating systems can be complicated to design efficiently, must require quality process to ensure perfect manufacturing, expertise to install properly and an in-depth understanding of how to control properly. If only one part of the process is managed incorrectly and without experience, the system can fail quickly. Through our ‘turn key’ solution, we believe we can offer the most cost-effective solution on the market with the lowest risk of trace heating failure. Dpstar is capable of handling the entire heat tracing package from front-end engineering design through to commissioning and training, combined with world class products. Through our 30 years of experience and expertise, Dpstar can offer turn-key trace heating solutions that can match your requirements and will give you the peace of mind that your trace heating system will be working as it should, to last the lifetime of a project. Dpstar is 100% committed in its engagement and presence at work during each project, providing a team capable of reinventing and reengineering on the go, offering the client full and absolute availability and flexibility. We would happy to have an initial conversation and answer any questions you may have about your project.

Temperature plays an important role in oil pipeline design. To ensure optimum yields and productive use it is important to maintain oil temperatures to avoid oil thickening and provide rapid heating for processing and melting. Heat tracing system is used on the transfer pump, pipeline, and service tank to establish the correct liquid viscosity of the oil reducing wastage to a minimum.

How A Pipe Heat Tracing System Works

Long pipeline heating is necessary for viscosity control, and temperature maintenance of transfer lines between processing plants, storage tanks and transportation facilities. When thermal insulation alone is not sufficient, then the pipeline needs heating. Long line heating Cable is mainly used for long distance pipe line. This pipe heating cable is for environment in which where the temperature of a transmitting fluid should be maintained warmly to smoothen the flow.

When the fluid in the pipeline becomes too viscous and begins to solidify, operations may be halted. To maintain a consistent flow of temperature sensitive fluids by pipeline, it is important to consider a solution that combines the proper heating system and advanced analytical software to provide real-time performance updates on the pipelines’ operational performance.

A pipe heat tracing system consists of an electrical heating tape that is attached to pipes. The electrical heat tracing is powered by electricity and by converting electricity, the desired heat is generated. Through the conversion of electricity into thermal energy (heat), hot water pipes, for example, are kept at temperature or liquids are protected from freezing.

Electrical heat tracing is generally used for the following:
