The use of electric heating tape in containers

Electric heating tape is a heating device composed of a conductive polymer and two parallel metal wires. When electric current passes through a metal wire, the conductive polymer generates heat, thereby achieving a thermal insulation effect. In the field of container transportation, electric heating tapes are also widely used.

 

The use of electric heating tape in containers

 

In winter, due to low temperatures, pipes and equipment in containers are easily affected by low temperatures, causing freezing and rupture, thus affecting the transportation and safety of goods. Electric heating tape can be wrapped around pipes and equipment inside the container to maintain their temperature by heating the surfaces of the pipes and equipment, thereby preventing freezing and rupture.

 

Electric heating tape can also be used for insulation and heating of containers. In some special transportation occasions, such as transporting refrigerated goods or goods that need to be maintained at a specific temperature, electric heating tape can provide the required temperature for the container to ensure the quality and safety of the goods.

 

In addition to being used during transportation, electric heating tapes also have important applications in the storage process of containers. In some cold areas, containers need to be stored outdoors or in low-temperature warehouses. Electric heating tapes can provide the necessary heat tracing and insulation for the containers to prevent pipes and equipment from freezing and rupturing.

 

In addition to the above-mentioned applications for preventing freezing, rupture, insulation and heating of pipelines and equipment, electric heating tapes also have the following applications in the field of container transportation:

 

1. Antifreeze of goods: When transporting goods that are easy to freeze, such as food, pharmaceuticals, etc., electric heating tape can be wrapped around the inner wall of the container to provide the required temperature for the goods to prevent freezing and damage to the goods.

 

2. Cargo drying: When transporting wet cargo, electric heating tape can help remove moisture from the cargo, keep the cargo dry, and prevent the growth of mold and bacteria.

 

3. Temperature control: When transporting goods that have strict temperature requirements, such as certain chemicals, electronic products, etc., electric heating tape can accurately control the temperature in the container to ensure that the goods are always in a suitable temperature range during transportation. Inside.

 

4. Energy saving and environmental protection: Compared with traditional heating methods, electric heating tape has a higher energy efficiency ratio, which can effectively reduce energy consumption, reduce transportation costs, and reduce the impact on the environment.

 

5. Equipment protection: During container transportation, some equipment such as the refrigeration unit of the reefer may be damaged due to low temperature. Electric heating tape can provide additional heating for these equipment and protect the normal operation of the equipment.

 

In general, electric heating tape is widely used in the field of container transportation. It can provide heat tracing and insulation for pipelines and equipment in containers, providing a strong guarantee for the transportation and safety of goods. With the continuous development of science and technology, the application of electric heating tapes in the field of container transportation will become more and more extensive.
