Tyco Thermal Controls has developed a new 'Engineering Toolbox' for its Raychem line of product which simplifies the design process for heat tracing applications. The toolbox provide engineering solutions to a range of applications including:

• Frost protection for pipes
• Snow melting for gutters, roofs, and downpipes
• Snow melting systems for ramps, pathways and stairs
• Hot water temperature maintenance for single pipe hot water systems
• Electrical underfloor heating systems

Each section of the toolbox provides a comprehensive guide to the application and includes:

• Specification text guidelines and notes for engineering drawings
• System drawing schematics
• Design overviews (for system selection) and system checklists (to ensure the optimum system is selected)
• A wealth of design guide and technical data

Finding what you need, quickly and efficiently

Getting the latest information, quickly and efficiently is of paramount importance to a system designer.
Accessing the new engineering tool at www.tycothermal.com/toolbox gives the designer instant access directly to the application of interest without the need for searching the other applications.
