The Danfoss DEVISAFE 20T is a professional-grade outdoor heating cable engineered for effective snow and ice melting. With a total power output of 2360W at 230V and a generous length of 118 meters, this heating element provides comprehensive coverage for large outdoor areas. Its durable construction is specifically designed to withstand the rigors of harsh winter climates, ensuring that surfaces remain clear and safe throughout the season.
Advantages
This heating cable offers exceptional reliability due to its robust design and high-quality materials, which are resistant to mechanical stress and environmental factors. The system provides consistent heat distribution, preventing the accumulation of ice and snow on critical surfaces. By automating the melting process, it significantly reduces the need for manual snow removal or the application of chemical de-icing agents, thereby protecting the integrity of your pavement and roofing materials.
Suitable for
- Driveways and parking areas
- Walkways and pedestrian paths
- Roof gutters and drainage systems
- Outdoor stairs and ramps
When it may not be suitable
This cable is not intended for indoor heating applications or for use in environments where it may come into direct contact with flammable materials. It is also not suitable for installation in areas where the cable cannot be properly secured or embedded according to the manufacturer's technical guidelines.
Key specifications
- Power output: 2360W
- Voltage: 230V
- Length: 118 meters
- Application: Outdoor snow and ice melting
- Durability: High resistance to mechanical and environmental stress
How to use
The installation of the Danfoss DEVISAFE 20T should be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with local electrical codes. The cable must be laid out according to the specific layout plan for the area being heated, ensuring proper spacing to achieve uniform heat distribution. It is typically embedded in sand, concrete, or asphalt for ground applications, or secured using appropriate mounting hardware for roof and gutter installations. Once installed, the system should be connected to a compatible thermostat or control unit to manage operation based on temperature and moisture sensors.
What to consider before purchase
- Ensure the total length of 118 meters is sufficient for your specific project area.
- Verify that your electrical supply can support the 2360W power requirement.
- Confirm that the installation surface is compatible with heating cable embedding.
- Check if additional control units or sensors are required for your specific setup.
Usage recommendations
For optimal energy efficiency and performance, it is highly recommended to pair this heating cable with an intelligent control system that activates the heating only when necessary, based on real-time temperature and moisture detection.
