Flexible hoses are used for liquid flow applications such as supplying drinking water, irrigation, fuel transfer, and beverage processing.
If the hose is located in a cold climate zone or in a low-temperature environment, freezing conditions may occur, especially when the liquid flow is reduced.
Another application occurs when it is necessary to ensure greater fluidity of the liquid to speed up product flow.
Rimatek heating blankets for these hoses are easy to install and prevent liquid solidification, allowing regular use even under unfavorable conditions, or make the liquid less viscous for easier flow.
The blanket can also be used as insulation; therefore, it can be supplied at a lower cost without the heating element to provide protection in environments where temperatures are not expected to drop below the liquid’s freezing point, or to protect tanks from solar radiation.
