Description

The PLEXO TCS connection system can be used for BARTEC?s self-limiting heating tapes. The modular PLEXO TCS system enables supply connections, splicing and remote-end terminations to be produced easily and safely. The PLEXO TCS components can be plugged in and they become part of a system which contains patented sealing and clamping technology. Maintenance work and later modifications to the heating circuit can be done quickly and with a high degree of flexibility. The strands from the self-limiting heating tapes or the supply cable are fixed in place securely by spring-loaded terminals in the internal clamping technology.

A cleverly devised sealing system offers reliable protection for electrical apparatus even against extreme environmental influences. The PLEXO TCS system?s flexibility allows a direct connection between the heating tape and the supply cable for connection to a remote distribution box or junction box. Two heating tapes of the same type can be joined to each other by means of their own PLEXO TCS connector, facilitating servicing and maintenance. The PLEXO TCS makes it possible and easier to extend the heating circuit at a later date.
