Serial Heating Cables For Trams, Metros & Railway Infrastructures

Dpstar provides serial heating cables, self-regulating heating cables, constant wattage heating cables, and many other heating elements to answer your needs. We understand your requirements and we are specialists in Electrical Heat Tracing solutions and provide reliable systems and solutions. Dpstar is responsible, trustworthy, and accountable you can count on.

Heat tracing may require a limited number of supply points. In this case, serial heating cables represent an adapted technical solution. Our FLEXTRACE CF serial heating cables range is manufactured on demand to provide you the best solutions.

Heating cables FLEXTRACE CF are specially designed to defreeze mushroom rails, metallic and concrete tracks for metros. These heating cables are clad on rail and metallic tracks with a complete range of accessories (“U” shaped composite profiles, clips, connectors), or slid on metallic tubes set on concrete tracks. The construction 1, 2, 3, or 4 resistive wires make multiple cases to match with the available voltage, the wattage, and single or double heating levels. To ensure that these heating elements enjoy a long service life, we recommend using a control device.

C1FS/I cables are specially designed for heating concrete tracks for VAL-type metros. They can be terminated into copper tubes. C2FS/I cables are specially designed for heating metal metro tracks and rails of the VAL type. They can be slid inside a U-shaped composite profile clamped against the rail with stainless steel clips. C3FS/I tapes are used when it is required to trace very long stretches, where a 400V, 3-phase power supply is available, for example in pits or tunnels.

C4FS/IS cables are used when it is required to trace very long stretches, where electrical supply is available only at one end, for example in the case of
pits, tunnels, heating tracks, and pipes. Through their building, these heating cables allow a power modulation from single to double thanks to an adequate electrical coupling. To ensure that these heating elements enjoy a long service life, we recommend using a control device.
