Hornisse electric heating cable for underfloor, 3.6 mm, length 15 m

Product detailed description

The electric heating cable Hornisse from the HO Cable/18 series in the shortest version: heating length 15 m and power 270 W at 230 V. The linear power of the cable is 18 W/m and its diameter is 3.1–3.6 mm. The cable is suitable for screeds and is appropriate where a smaller heating area or supplementary heat source is sufficient.

• The cable is laid on a concrete screed, so it can be easily hidden under tiles, panels or stone.
• Precise temperature control together with high efficiency helps keep heating costs lower.
• Constant and even heat covers the entire floor, cold zones disappear.
• The flexible cable is easy to lay, even in more complex areas; it is suitable for apartments, houses and commercial buildings, for bathrooms, kitchens or as supplementary heating.
• Fluoropolymer and PVC insulation resist mechanical damage and moisture, which increases durability.
• Heating time is short – the desired room temperature is reached quickly.
• Shading and good insulation minimize the risk of overheating.

Parameters of this cable

The index number 18-270 indicates the cable power in watts: 15 m times 18 W/m is 270 W. This is the shortest length in the power range listed below. It is suitable, for example, for smaller rooms, near windows or balcony doors, where additional heat is needed.

Technical data

Other lengths in the HO Cable/18 series

The series includes cables with the same linear power of 18 W/m, they differ in length and total power. This piece is highlighted in the table.

Application and installation

The cable is suitable especially for these areas:

• floor heating in family houses and apartments,
• heating of commercial spaces, for example offices or service areas,
• places where additional heat is needed – near windows, balcony doors or in the bathroom.

Do not twist the cable during installation and make bends with a radius of 50 mm; individual loops must not lie on top of each other. Installation should be carried out at a temperature of at least 5 °C. The two-core supply cable with a length of 2.5 m must be connected via a temperature controller and the connection should be done by a qualified electrician. The current drawn by the cable can be estimated from its power and voltage of 230 V; after installation, we recommend checking the cable resistance.
