True expertise in industrial trace heating design is rare. Planray’s experienced professionals are among the leading experts in the field, delivering solutions that create long-term value well into the future.
Trace Heating Engineering Services
Trace heating design is often integrated into larger electrical or process projects. When designing electric trace heating systems, numerous factors must be considered, including installation materials, ambient temperature conditions, expected thermal loads, process media characteristics and pipe insulation, to name just a few.
Through Planray, you gain access to experienced professionals who provide engineering services or consulting to support your own design work, both for new projects and existing facilities.
Based on the available design data, we produce comprehensive trace heating documentation that covers system dimensioning, material selection, installation guidelines, and long-term maintenance considerations.
Professional Trace Heating Design
Successful engineering delivers benefits far into the future.
When design work is carried out by a competent professional who understands the overall structure of the facility and takes full responsibility for the solution, customers can be confident that the outcome supports safe, energy-efficient and cost-effective operation.
Planray’s particular strength in engineering lies in intelligent control systems that enable efficient management of even thousands of trace heating circuits while collecting valuable operational data from the system.
