IEEE 515-2011 IEEE Standard for the Testing, Design, Installation, and Maintenance of Electrical Resistance Trace Heating for Industrial Applications

IEEE 515-2011 Стандарт IEEE для тестирования, проектирование, монтаж и техническое обслуживание электрического сопротивления Трассировка отопления для промышленных применений

This standard provides requirements for the testing, design, installation, and maintenance of electrical resistance trace heating in general industries as applied to pipelines, vessels, pretraced and thermally insulated instrument tubing and piping, and mechanical equipment. The electrical resistance trace heating is in the form of series trace heaters, parallel trace heaters, and surface heating units. In this standard, the terms hazardous (classified) locations and potentially flammable atmospheres refer to the same conditions.The requirements also include test criteria to determine the suitability of these heating devices utilized in industrial applications as applied in unclassified (ordinary) and hazardous (classified) locations.
