international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two
organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

4 Application considerations
4.1 General
This standard supplements the requirements of IEC 60079-14 and IEC 60079-17.
Where trace-heating systems are to be installed in explosive gas atmospheres, full details of
the hazardous area classification(s) (IEC 60079-10) should be specified. The specification
should state the zone of risk (1 or 2), gas group (IIA, IIB or IIC) and temperature classification
in accordance with IEC 60079-0. Where special considerations apply or where site condi-
tions may be especially onerous, these conditions should be detailed in the trace-heating
specification.
Where trace-heating systems are to be installed on mobile equipment or interchangeable skid
units, the specification for these trace-heating systems should be designed to accommodate
the worst conditions in which the trace-heating system may be used.
Where any parts of the trace-heating system are likely to be exposed to ultraviolet radiation,
those parts should be suitable for use in such conditions.
4.2 Corrosive areas
All components of electric trace-heating systems should be examined to verify that they are
compatible with any corrosive materials that may be encountered during the lifetime of the
system. Trace-heating systems operating in corrosive environments may have a higher
potential for failure than in non-corrosive environments. Deterioration of the thermal insulation
system is made worse by corrosion of the weather barrier and the possibility of pipeline and
vessel leaks soaking the thermal insulation. Particular attention should be given to the
materials of piping systems, as well as the electric trace-heating systems, as related to the
effective earth-leakage/ground-fault return path. The use of non-metallic or hybrid piping
systems may further complicate the earth-leakage/ground-fault return path and special
consideration should be given to these piping systems. Earth-leakage/ground-fault return paths
that are established at the time of installation may become degraded due to corrosion during
the operation of the plant.
4.3 Installation considerations
For convenience, various process types, according to the degree of application criticality and
process temperature accuracy required, may be specified (see table 1). However, it should be
recognized that each specific application may involve a combination of considerations.

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
62086-2 © IEC:2001 – 13 –
When the trace heating is critical to the process, consideration should be given to circuit
monitoring (heating circuits should be monitored for correct operation and alarms provided to
indicate damage or fault) and to back up (redundant) heating systems. Spare or back-up trace
heating controls may be specified to be automatically activated in the event of a fault being
indicated by the monitoring/alarm system. This is sometimes known as “redundance”. Back-up
trace heating allows maintenance and repairs to be performed without a process shutdown.
4.4 Process temperature accuracy
4.4.1 Type I
A type I process is one for which the temperature should be maintained above a minimum
point. Ambient sensing control may be acceptable. Large blocks of power may be controlled by
means of a single control device and an electrical distribution panel board. Heat input may be
provided unnecessarily at times and wide temperature excursions should be tolerable. Energy
efficiency may be improved through the use of dead-leg control techniques (see 6.13).
4.4.2 Type II
A type II process is one for which the temperature should be maintained within a moderate
band. Pipeline sensing mechanical thermostats may be typical.
4.4.3 Type III
A type III process is one for which the temperature should be controlled within a narrow band.
Pipe-sensing controllers using thermocouple or resistance-temperature detector (RTD) units
facilitate field (work site) calibration and provide maximum flexibility in the selection of
temperature alarm and monitoring functions. Heat input capability may be provided to heat up
or raise the fluid temperature, or both, within a specified range and time interval. Type III
considerations require strict adherence to flow patterns and thermal insulation systems.
5 Thermal insulation
5.1 General
The selection, installation and maintenance of thermal insulation should be considered a key
component in the performance of an electrical trace-heating system. The thermal insulation
system is normally designed to prevent the majority of heat loss with the trace-heating system
compensating for the remainder. Therefore, problems with thermal insulation will have a direct
impact on the overall system performance.
The primary function of thermal insulation is to reduce the rate of heat transfer from a surface
that is operating at a temperature other than ambient. This reduction of energy loss may
– reduce operating expenses;
– improve system performance;
– increase system output capability.
---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
62086-2 © IEC:2001 – 15 –
Prior to any heat loss analysis for an electrically traced pipeline, vessel or other mechanical
equipment, a review of the selection of the insulation system is recommended. The principal
areas for consideration are as follows:
– selection of an insulation material;
– selection of a weather barrier (cladding);
– selection of the economic insulation thickness;
– selection of the proper insulation size.
5.2 Selection of insulating material
The following are important aspects to be considered when selecting an insulation material:
– thermal characteristics;
– mechanical properties;
– chemical compatibility;
– moisture resistance;
– personnel safety characteristics;
– fire resistance;
– smoke, toxicity;
–cost.
Insulation materials commonly available include:
– expanded silica;
– mineral fibre;
– cellular glass;
– urethane;
– fibreglass;
– calcium silicate;
– isocyanurate;
– perlite silicate.
For soft insulants (mineral fibre, fibre-glass, etc.), actual pipe size insulation may be used in
many cases by banding the insulation tightly. Care should be taken to prevent the heater from
being buried within the insulation, which may cause damage to the heater or may restrict
proper heat transfer. As an alternative, the next largest pipe size insulation that can easily
enclose pipe and electric trace heater is also acceptable. Rigid insulation (calcium silicate,
expanded silica, cellular glass, etc.), may be pipe-size insulation if board sections are cut to fit
the longitudinal joint. This type of installation technique is commonly referred to as an extended
leg installation. Alternatively, the next largest insulation size may be selected to accommodate
the trace heater. In all cases, the insulation size and thickness should be clearly specified.
5.3 Selection of weather barrier (cladding)
Proper operation of an electrically trace heated system depends upon the insulation being dry.
Electric tracing normally has insufficient heat output to dry wet thermal insulation. Some
insulation materials, even though removed from the piping and force dried, never regain their
initial characteristics after once being wet.
---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
62086-2 © IEC:2001 – 17 –
Straight piping may be weather-protected with metal jacketing, polymeric, or a mastic system.
When metal jacketing is used, it should be smooth with formed, modified “S” longitudinal joints.
The circumferential end joints should be sealed with closure bands and supplied with sealant
on the outer edge or where they overlap (see figure 1).

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
62086-2 © IEC:2001 – 19 –
Jacketing that is overlapped or otherwise closed without sealant is not effective as a barrier to
moisture. A single, unsealed joint can allow a considerable amount of water to leak into the
insulation during a rainstorm.
The type of weather barrier used should, as a minimum, be based on a consideration of the
following:
– effectiveness in excluding moisture;
– corrosive nature of chemicals in the area;
– fire protection requirements;
– durability to mechanical abuse;
–cost.
5.4 Selection of economical thickness
At a minimum, an economic consideration of the insulation will weigh the initial costs of the
materials and installation against the energy saved over the life of the insulation. It should be
noted that the actual insulation thicknesses do not always correspond exactly to the nominal
insulation thickness. When choosing the insulation size, considerations should be made as to
whether or not the actual pipe-size insulation is suitable for accommodating both pipe and trace
heater.
5.5 Double insulation
The double insulation technique may be employed when the pipe temperature exceeds the
maximum allowable temperature of the trace heater. Prevention of the freezing of condensate
in high-temperature steam lines when these lines are not in use is a typical application. It
consists of locating the trace heater between two layers of insulation surrounding the pipe. The
essence of the double-insulation technique is to determine the correct combination of inner and
outer insulation type and thickness that will result in an acceptable interface temperature for
the trace heater. This relationship is illustrated in figure 2. Note that maximum ambient
temperature conditions should be considered in this determination.
