The advantages of electric heating tape in the bridge anti-freezing

　　With the continuous development of modern transport, the safety and maintenance of bridges, as one of the important transport hubs, is particularly important. Especially in the cold area, the low temperature in winter and snow and ice weather on the bridge is particularly significant, may lead to the bridge surface icing, vehicle driving not smooth or even accidents. In order to guarantee the safety and smooth flow of the bridge, electric accompanying heat tape as a kind of efficient and reliable heating solution, gradually in the bridge frost prevention has been widely used.

　　This article will introduce the electric accompanied by the advantages of the tropical in the bridge antifreeze and its application cases.

　　First, the basic principle and characteristics of electric accompanied by the tropical tape

　　The electric accompanies the tropical is one kind through the electric energy transforms into the heat energy, the pipeline, the equipment or the ground carries on the heating device. Its basic principle is through the current flow through the conductive material, produce heat, so as to improve the temperature of the surrounding environment. The electric accompanying heat tape has the following characteristics:

　　1. High efficiency and energy saving: electric accompanied by tropical through the electric energy directly into heat, has the high energy utilisation efficiency, at the same time will not produce any pollutant.

　　2. Simple installation: electric accompanied by the installation of the heat tape is simple, just lay it on the surface that needs to be heated, do not need special installation skills.

　　3. Adjustable temperature: The temperature of the electric heating tape can be adjusted according to the actual needs to meet different heating requirements.

　　4. Long service life: the service life of electric heating tape is long, generally can reach more than 10 years, the maintenance cost is low.

　　Second, the electric accompanies the heat tape in the bridge antifreeze application

　　1. Prevents the bridge from icing

　　In the winter, the bridge deck is easy to be affected by the low temperature and the ice and snow weather, causes the bridge deck to freeze, affects the vehicle's normal travelling. In order to prevent the bridge surface from icing, electric heating tape is widely used in the bridge antifreeze system. By laying the electric accompanied by the heat tape on the surface of the bridge deck, can effectively improve the temperature of the surface of the bridge deck, prevent the bridge deck from icing, and guarantee the normal travelling of the vehicles.

　　2. Guarantees the vehicle safety

　　The electric accompanies the tropical belt in the bridge antifreeze application, can effectively guarantee the vehicle safety. By laying the electric accompanies the tropical belt on the bridge deck surface, can effectively prevent the bridge deck from icing, reduce the risk of vehicle travelling poorly or accident due to icing, guarantee the safety of vehicle travelling.

　　3. Reduces the maintenance cost

　　The electric accompanies the tropical belt in the bridge antifreeze application, can reduce the maintenance cost effectively. Through the bridge deck surface laying electric accompanied by tropical, can effectively prevent the bridge surface icing, reduce the bridge surface damage and maintenance caused by icing, reduce the maintenance cost of the bridge.

　　Third, the electric accompanies the tropical belt in the bridge antifreeze advantage

　　1. improve the maintenance efficiency

　　The electric accompanies the tropical belt in the bridge antifreeze application, can effectively improve the maintenance efficiency. By laying the electric accompanied by the tropical belt on the surface of the bridge deck, can effectively prevent the bridge from icing, reduce the bridge damage and maintenance caused by icing, reduce the workload of the maintenance personnel, improve the maintenance efficiency. For example, in some cold areas of the bridge, electric accompanied by the tropical belt is used in the bridge antifreeze system, reduced due to icing caused by the bridge damage and repair, improve the maintenance efficiency.

　　2. Extend the bridge life

　　The electric accompanies the tropical belt in the bridge antifreeze application, can effectively prolong the bridge life. Through the bridge deck surface laying electric accompanied by tropical, can effectively prevent the bridge icing, reduce the bridge damage and maintenance caused by icing, prolong the service life of the bridge. For example, in some cold area bridge, electric accompanies the tropical belt is used in the bridge antifreeze system, reduces because of the icing causes the bridge surface damage and the maintenance, prolongs the bridge service life.

　　3. Improve the traffic operation benefit

　　The electric accompanies the tropical belt in the bridge antifreeze application, can effectively improve the traffic operation benefit. Through in the bridge bridge surface laying electric accompanies the tropical belt, may prevent the bridge surface ice effectively, reduces because of the icing causes the vehicle to travel not well or the accident risk, guarantees the vehicle the safe travelling, enhances the traffic the operation benefit. For example, in some cold areas of the bridge, electric accompanied by the tropical belt is used in the bridge antifreeze system, ensure the vehicle in the low temperature environment of the safe driving, improve the traffic operation benefit.

　　As an efficient and reliable heating solution, electric heating tape plays an important role in bridge frost protection. By laying electric accompanying heat tape on the surface of bridge deck, it can effectively prevent the bridge from icing, guarantee the safe driving of vehicles, reduce the maintenance cost, improve the maintenance efficiency, prolong the life of bridge, and improve the traffic operation benefit. With the continuous development of modern transport, electric accompanied by tropical in bridge antifreeze application prospect will be more broad.
