A pipe stand instrument heater system for heating an instrument within an enclosure supported by a pipe stand. The heater system includes a housing mounted to the pipe stand and a heater unit in the housing. A bracket is provided for mounting the instrument to the housing. The heater unit can be powered by electric, steam or other fluids.

The heater unit can be powered by electric, steam or other fluids.

Safety-enhanced steam tracing includes a metallic tube with a thin jacket of polymeric material, such as silicone rubber. The polymeric jacket is typically about 40 mils to about 60 mils thick. The safety-enhanced steam tracing provides a substantially lower risk of burn injury than bare metal steam tracing, yet its conductance performance is about the same as that of bare metal steam tracing.

Safety-enhanced heat tracing

The invention pertains to the apparatus and process for shaping and forming of thermal insulation materials around tubes and pipes in a continuous production process wherein the tube or pipe and a long singular strip of insulating material passes linear with the tube or pipe through a shaping die. The shaping die forms the insulating material around the circumference of the tube or pipe without substantial compression and is captured by overlapping coils of helical wound tape, wire or like material.
