Flexelec, a company specialised in the design and production of flexible heating elements for all kinds of temperature maintenance, recently presented its large pannel of products used in refrigerated systems at the first issue of Chillventa. With more than 800 exhibitors from 43 countries and 29,500 trade visitors from all over the world, it was a brilliant premiere.

For example, the company has showcased the heating cable FLEXDRAIN CSC2K, designed two years ago. It has already proved to be a big success, principally due to its introduction at the time of record growth in the heat pump market. The heating cable FLEXDRAIN CSC2K is a drain-line cable with integrated thermostat. It is designed to be placed at the bottom of collector trays inside heating pumps to prevent freezing and allow condensate water to flow freely. The FLEXDRAIN CSC2K has been quickly adopted by the well-known brand names in the world of heat pumps which recognise its major assets.

These include double insulation, which makes it totally waterproof, extreme flexibility even at low temperature, no allowance between the power cable and the heating section, a black mark which delineates the heating section from the cold part, an industrial connexion integrated in the product, accepted temperatures from -40°C to + 110°C, a preset temperature range + 5 / + 15°C which ensures that heat pumps will enjoy a long service life. FLEXELEC has already sold 15000 FLEXDRAIN CSC2K during the 7 first months of 2008, reveals the company’s press release.
