PRODUCT OVERVIEW

nVent RAYCHEM FrostGuard preassembled self-regulating

de-icing applications. 120 V FrostGuard cables are available in

6, 12, 18, 24, 36, 50, 75 and 100 foot lengths, and each comes

assembled with a 6-ft power cord and 3-prong, grounded, lighted

plug to show the system is on. 120 V FrostGuard cables are ideal

for smaller jobs such as roof and gutter de-icing on porches

and overhangs, as well as for pipe freeze protection on metal or

plastic pipes up to 2-1/2 inches in diameter.

240 V FrostGuard cables are available in 6, 12, 18, and 24 foot

lengths and each come assembled with a 6-ft power cord for

terminating in a junction box. Due to their short lengths, 240 V
