No snowmen at car park - Tyco Thermal Controls
Raychem electric ramp heating systems from Tyco Thermal Controls have been installed in a new 1000 space, four storey car park in Walsall. Over 1500 metres of Raychem heating cables have been installed to prevent ice formation or snow accumulation on the car park's exposed top spiral vehicle ramp and a pedestrian walkway for shoppers.
Whenever the ambient temperature falls below 3°c and moisture is also detected by the ramp surface sensors, these cables power up and deliver the heat required to keep the surface free of snow and ice. Ramp heating can be used to prevent frost damage.
