Mustang Heat Trace Tube Bundle

Mustang Sampling’s Heat Trace Tube Bundle is the patented power connection that provides power to the sample conditioning system and transports the Analytically Accurate® heated gas sample to an analyzer. This unique dual functionality eliminates the need for additional power at the sample point and helps avoid Joule-Thomson cooling.

Small diameter lines are heated for many reasons including freeze protection (winterization), reduced viscosity, and keeping gas samples above their dew point. These can be critical for process accuracy, emissions compliance, and even plant operation. Mustang Sampling’s cut-to-length constant watt electric heat trace tube bundle is designed to provide freeze protection and temperature maintenance. The construction of the heat trace tube bundle makes it exceptionally durable and suitable for process analyzer applications within Natural Gas, Natural Gas Liquid and Biogas Sample Conditioning Systems. The patented power connection heat trace tube bundle runs from the Analyzer building to Mustang Sampling’s Systems and enclosures which are close couple to one another at the source.
