Description
EasyHeat, your industry leader in pipe freeze prevention and roof-and-gutter deicing applications, introduces PSR pre-terminated, self-regulating heating cable. Imagine the convenience: each PSR cable is a pre-terminated, off-the-shelf product with the efficiency and functionality of self-regulating technology. With this built-in application flexibility, PSR becomes a first-choice solution for your heat tracing needs.
PSR is a parallel resistance cable with factory sealed connections. It is manufactured with water-resistant TPE outer jacket, UL Listed to Canadian safety standards and CSA Certified for ordinary locations. Rated at 5 watts per foot at 50ºF. 120 VAC models have integral three-wire plug with pilot light; 240 VAC models have three-wire pigtail.
Features:
- Prevent water pipes from freezing
- Prevent the formation of ice dams on roof tops
- Suitable for use on metal and plastic pipes up to 2-1/2" in diameter
- All cables have a 30" cold lead
- Pilot light in the plug on 120 VAC
- PSR 120 VAC heating cables have a power indicator light in the plug, visual assurance that the system is energized.
- Cable can be overlapped if necessary
- Self-regulating heating cable means energy efficiency. The heat output is varied in relation to the ambient temperature. As the surrounding temperature increases, the heat output of the PSR cable decreases. But when the temperature decreases, the cable heat output increases and provides the heat needed along the length of the cable.
The PSR system can be installed with the confidence that it will operate satisfactorily for years. When it comes to freeze protection, stay with the leader - Easy Heat.

21 QuestionsQ: I want to use them for flat roof de icing and down spouts. I f there is no snow these cables will be on ( using power ) all the time? unless I use a time switch?
Asked by harry 11 years ago

Verified Reply- SupplyHouse StaffThe PSR if directly plugged to the GFI rated outlet will always be on. At colder temperatures, it will draw a higher power requirement to produce the right amount of heat to prevent ice dams on the roof. There is the option to use the RS2 to limit the operation of the cable when the temperature is below 40F and melting water is present.

Verified Reply- SupplyHouse StaffYes, The Easy Heat SRES End Seal Kit is for use with all versions of Easy Heat’s SR heater cables for pipe tracing and roof and gutter applications, for end-of-line termination/sealing.
Q: Would like to wrap every 4 inches or so a 10"X54" fiberglass cylinder water filter and insulating with about 2 inches of fiberglass insulation. I turn off heat and drain all water pipes when leaving. Temp can fall below zero. Should this process prevent freezing of water left in filter medium? Thanks

Verified Reply- SupplyHouse StaffPSR pipe tracing heating cable is only approved for use in roof deicing, and pipe freeze protection installations.
Q: what is the diameter or thickness of a 12' easy heat cable?
Asked by rak 12 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- SupplyHouse StaffThe diameter of the cable is 3.66 mm.
Q: Do you use a size larger insulation or is the same size as pipe o.d. large enough
Asked by goose chaser 12 years ago
Add your answer
Same size should be sufficient. Tape the seams to prevent a cold draft from being induced if you're in the northern regions and subject to below zero extended with wind. Try to get the heat tape into the center of the pipe insulation for the best transfer of heat. Ric Evans

Q: I am going to instal some easy heat psr cable on a metal roof. What is the rated wattage of the cable at -20F startup? I see it is rated 5 watts at 50F and 8 watts at 32F. Stumped.
Asked by golfnuts 14 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffThe only information the manufacturer provides is the heat output of the cable at 50F which is 5 watts per foot. However to attempt to determine this look at the SR Trace as a reference which is a similar cable to the PSR. The SR Trace would have an average heat density or a nominal power output in ice of about 8 watts per foot. Therefore, it is safe to say that PSR would also have an average heat density of 8 watts per foot when de-icing.
Q: Can this be put directly in the gutter, ie. on the metal?
Asked by Steve 14 years ago

Yes I bought this same cable to keep downspouts clear of ice in winter. The first winter, I just tie-wrapped it to outside of a solid ice filled downspout and it melted the ice in a few days and kept it clear that winter That spring, I put it inside of the downspout and looped it down into the soil pipe and back out at the juncture of the soil pipe to a receptacle. If you have a receptacle at the top of the gutter this is much better, since you could snake it down the downspout into the soil pipe with no loopback Make sure it goes 4' below grade into the soil pipe or it will not work. If no soil pipe just to end of downspout that goes on your lawn. If you plan to use in gutters, you should also have heat cables on the roof, else ice dams can form which will prevent meltwater from reaching the gutters. Good luck! Sent from my iPad
I've used it that way with no problems. I had to rivet a few brackets to the bottom of the gutter to hold it there, and it worked fine. I've even run it inside the downspout with no problems.
Yes it can be put directly on metal. I have a metal roof and use this cable to melt snow and ice along the edge. I attached it directly to the metal. Donald Bayer
Q: If the pipe to be traced is vertical, do you spiral it or place it on just the side?
Asked by john 14 years ago
Add your answer
Verified Reply- PexSupply StaffIt is better to spiral the cable around the cable if you have enough cable to do so, but you can still get freeze protection by running the cable along the side of the pipe. The pipe/cable should always be insulated.
Yes you can. As long as it is a storm water manhole and drainage system vs sewer also. Due to gas build up and adding electrical to it.
