For preheating, a flexible insulated preheater is used which is identical to the ceramic heater but with a superwool insulation mat encased in stainless steel mesh and a stainless steel backing attached. The preheater can be used on both a flat or curved surface and is attached to the pipe by a magnet (GHT 9307).

 

The stainless steel backing allows the magnet to make a strong connection between the ceramic heater and the pipe quickly and with ease.

 

These FIP'S are used to preheat up to a temperature of 250 Degrees C.

 

Similar in design to CP3 aand CP4 flexible Insulated Preheaters, the Tank Track heater is constructed from robust tank track beads.
