Trace Heating - Ramp Heating
Ramp Heating - Snow & Ice Removal Trace Heating Systems
Snowmelting for Ramps, Steps & Footpaths
Ramp heating systems provide improved public safety and access to buildings where snow and ice build up presents health and safety concerns. Trace heating systems for ramp heating applications are proven to reduce the rate of accidents.
Thermon ramp heating cables are designed for direct burial into concrete/asphalt preventing snow and ice build up. The ramp heating cables are manufactured to withstand the harsh conditions associated with concrete/asphaly pour.
T&D provide a turnkey design, supply and installation service for ramp heating systems.
T&D work in conjunction with architect, principal contractor, mechanical and electrical engineer to ensure that the ramp heating system meets the relevant specification and that the installation runs as smoothly as possible.
Ramp Heating Typical Applications : disabled access ramp heating, car park ramps, loading bays and fire escape staircases.
Trace Heating - Self Regulating Ramp Heating Cables
Gateshead College. Client Balfour Kilpatrick. Over 4km ramp heating cable installed to car park ramp.
Ramp heating benefits :
- Economic – ramp heating cable automatically adjusts its output according to the ambient conditions
- Safe – ramp heating cable cannot over heat due to self regulating properties
- Maintenance Free – automatic controls create a fit and forget ramp heating system
- Long Lifetimes – age tested for lifetimes in excess of twenty years
- Rugged – designed for direct burial in the ramp or pathway
- Tested - Ramp heating systems deformation tested IEEE515.1 (contact T&D for full list of tests)
