Hornisse – electric heating cable 3.6 mm, length 67.8 m

Product detailed description

The Hornisse cable with a length of 67.8 m expands the range of floor heating systems for larger heated areas. It carries the designation HO Cable/18-1220, has a twin-core construction and a diameter of 3.1 – 3.6 mm. It operates at 230 V with a linear power of 18 W/m and is laid in a concrete screed, where it delivers heat evenly across the entire floor after being covered with a floor covering.

Adjacent lengths in the range are 61.1 m and 83.3 m. When choosing between them, consider the room dimensions and laying method; the cable material and construction are the same within the range.

Main Features

• Installation in screed: the cable is laid in a concrete screed and under various floor types – from tiles through panels to stone – and remains discreetly hidden.
• No cold spots: heat is distributed constantly across the entire surface, increasing living comfort.
• Fast heating: the cable can warm up in a short time, so the room quickly reaches the desired temperature.
• Durability: the core with fluoropolymer insulation and the outer PVC sheath protect against damage and moisture penetration.
• Safety: the shielded cable with high-quality insulation minimizes the risk of overheating.
• Flexibility: the cable is flexible, so it can handle even more difficult areas.
• Energy efficiency: the combination of precise temperature control and good thermal efficiency allows for reduced energy consumption for heating.

Technical Data

Total power, current and resistance depend on the cable length. For the HO Cable/18-1220 variant, verify them before designing the electrical circuit according to the manufacturer's data.

Application

The system is suitable for heating in family homes and apartments, as well as in commercial spaces. It can heat entire rooms including bathrooms and kitchens, but it can also be used as an additional heat source, for example near windows, balcony doors or in the bathroom, where a warm floor is needed in addition to the main heating system.

Installation and Operation

The cable should be connected by a qualified electrician. When laying, ensure that loops do not overlap or touch each other and that the cable is not bent more sharply than the 50 mm radius. Installation is carried out at a temperature not lower than 5 °C. After laying and after covering, check the resistance and compare it with the manufacturer's data to detect any possible damage at an early stage.
