Heating cable DANFOSS DEVI 98-300075 self-limiting, 10 m length

DANFOSS DEVI 98-300075 self-limiting heating cable, 10 m length, is designed to provide electric trace heating for pipes, gutters, roofs and other installations where frost protection or temperature maintenance is required. The cable automatically adjusts its heat output along its length, increasing heat where surfaces are colder and reducing output where ambient temperatures are higher. Constructed for both indoor and outdoor applications when installed according to manufacturer guidelines, the cable offers a straightforward solution for preventing freezing and minimizing the risk of pipe bursts.

Advantages

The self-limiting design reduces energy consumption by modulating power output in response to local temperature differences, eliminating the need for multiple fixed-output runs. Durable outer jacket materials and UV-resistant construction make the cable suitable for exposed outdoor use. Its flexible 10 m length allows for easy routing along pipes and gutters and simplifies installation in both residential and light-commercial settings. The cable is compatible with standard installation accessories and can be combined with thermostats and control devices to provide more precise temperature maintenance.

Suitable for

• Frost protection of water supply and heating pipes
• Preventing ice buildup in gutters, downspouts and roof edges
• Maintaining process temperatures in small industrial or commercial pipework
• Protecting outdoor plumbing and irrigation lines from freezing

Key specifications

• Length: 10 m
• Application environment: suitable for indoor and outdoor use when installed per guidelines
• Heat output: variable along length, automatically adjusts to local temperature
• Construction: flexible cable with durable outer jacket designed for exposed installation
• Installation: compatible with standard attachment and control accessories; requires proper electrical connection and grounding

How to use

Install the DANFOSS DEVI self-limiting heating cable along the length of the pipe, gutter or roof area to be protected, ensuring direct contact with the surface for effective heat transfer. Secure the cable at regular intervals using compatible clips or tape rated for use with electric trace heating, avoiding overlapping of the cable on itself. Connect the cable to a suitable power supply and, if required, integrate a thermostat or control device to manage operation. Follow local electrical codes and the manufacturer’s installation instructions; install a residual-current device (RCD) where required and ensure proper grounding.

Usage recommendations

Plan the layout to match the 10 m length and avoid cutting or shortening the self-limiting cable. For best results, select attachment materials and insulation compatible with trace heating systems and consult the manufacturer’s installation manual for recommended spacing, power ratings and accessories. Use a control thermostat or temperature sensor in locations where precise temperature maintenance is necessary, and inspect connections and outer jacket condition periodically as part of routine maintenance.
