The TRANSCALOR - Heat Conducting Cement

Transcalor - Heat Conducting Cement is an inorganic and non-metallic material with high thermal coductivity, that does not melt or support combustion.

This compound, which is pasty in its ready for use state, binds to form a cement-like hardness following the application procedure. Since the linear shrinkage of TRANSCALOR - heat conducting cement is minimal, excellent resistance to thermal and mechanical stressing is provided.

It is used for pipe heating systems or tank heating systems which are heated by means of external trace heating pipes or electric heating cables. It can also be used for corresponding cooling systems.

The application area of the TRANSCALOR - heat conducting cement covers temperature ranges up to 700 degrees Celsius, what is sufficient for the most heating systems.

Application of TRANSCALOR - Heat Conducting Cement

Viscous materials, or materials with a higher solidification point, are difficult to convey or store. Since the transport of these materials below specific temperatures is not possible on an economical basis, they are usually heated by means of external accessory heating pipes through which a heating medium flows.

The contact surface area between the accessory heating pipe and product pipe, however, is rather small. By applying the TRANSCALOR - heat conducting cement, the contact surface area between the round accessory heating pipes and the product pipe is increased and the heat transmission considerably improved.

As a result, when compared to the pipe trace heating system without TRANSCALOR - heat conducting cement, the number of required accessory heating pipes can also be reduced.

The massive heat flow on the surface covered with TRANSCALOR - heat conducting cement continues in circumference direction on the prodct wall due to the good thermal conductivity:

Consumption and quantities

When using the TRANSCALOR - heat conducting cement, it is important, that the heating pipe is covered at least 6 mm high with the cement and that no kinds of hollow spaces ( e.g. air bubbles) are enclosed in the TRANSCALOR - heat conducting cement.

The food width must be at least three times the value of the external diameter of the heating pipe.

The use of the TRANSCALOR - heat conducting cement results in the following required quantity per metre of pipe length:
