T-3
Features
- Tmax exposure 371°C
- 114-227 W/m² • °C
- 3.79 & 18.93 liter
Application
Thermon T-3 heat transfer compound creates an efficient thermal bond between a steam or electric heater and process pipes or equipment. A single Thermonized steam tracer utilizing Thermon’s heat transfer compound is more cost effective than a contoured clamp-on jacket and has the equivalent performance of three (or more) bare tracers.
T-3 is typically utilized for applications with maximum exposure temperatures of 371°C. To minimize waste and speed installation, use Thermon’s ChannelTrace system featuring TFK channels. The ChannelTrace system provides protection prior to installation of thermal insulation and invites no special curing procedure for the T-3 heat transfer compound.
Features
- Increase heat transfer rates significantly over bare tracing, reducing number of tracers and steam traps
- Fewer steam tracers reduce installation time; ChannelTrace eliminates waste
- Water-soluble for easy cleanup
- Requires no special curing procedure for tracing under TFK channels
