Mineral Insulated High Temperature Heating Cables with EHT Engineering

Safe, Durable and Precise Heating Solutions in Harsh Industrial Conditions

Temperature control in industrial facilities plays a critical role in process safety and equipment life. In systems operating at high temperatures, standard heating cables can be inadequate. In such applications, mineral-insulated high-temperature heating cables (MI cables) come into play, offering superior performance both technically and operationally. At EHT Engineering, we have been supplying, designing, and implementing MI cables specifically designed for harsh environments since 1992.

What is Mineral Insulated Heating Cable?

Mineral-insulated heating cables are special cable types that stand out with their high temperature resistance and excellent electrical insulation properties. These cables feature:

  • Magnesium oxide (MgO) mineral insulation materials such as
  • Stainless steel, Inconel or 825 alloy metal outer sheaths such as
  • High resistance heating wire (usually a nickel-chromium alloy)

Mineral insulation can withstand much higher temperatures than organic insulation materials and is chemically inert. This makes MI cables safe for use in applications up to 1000°C.

Technical Specifications

Mineral insulated high-temperature cables offered by EHT Engineering offer superior performance against harsh conditions with the following technical features:

Feature Explanation
Temperature resistance Continuous operation: 600–1000°C (depending on cable type)
Insulation material Magnesium oxide (MgO)
Outer sheath Stainless steel, Inconel, alloy 825
Resistance wire Nickel-chromium alloy
Protection class IP67 and above – water, dust and chemical resistant
Certification ATEX, IECEx, CE, TSE compatible products
Application type Series resistor – constant power output

This structure ensures both the electrical safety and mechanical durability of the cable.

Application Areas

Mineral-insulated cables are particularly preferred in industrial environments where high temperatures and corrosive environments are present. At EHT Engineering, we offer specialized solutions for the following areas:

  • Petrochemical plants
  • Refineries
  • Power plants
  • Chemical reactors
  • Food and pharmaceutical production lines
  • Metallurgy and foundries
  • Hazardous areas (Ex-Proof areas)
  • Tanks and pipelines
  • Instrument cases and process equipment

These cables can be used for both freeze prevention and process temperature maintenance purposes.

Intelligent Temperature Control

Because MI cables operate at constant power, they are recommended for use with temperature control systems. The solutions we offer at EHT Engineering include:

  • Compatible with digital and analog thermostats
  • Systems that are automatically activated according to the ambient temperature
  • Overheating protection
  • Remote control from mobile devices
  • Integration with SCADA and PLC systems

Thanks to these systems, energy consumption is optimized and the life of the cable is extended.

Project-Based Design and Production

Every facility and process has its own unique needs. As EHT Engineering:

  • We conduct field exploration and needs analysis
  • We determine the cable type and length according to the application area.
  • We perform power calculations and route planning
  • We offer post-implementation testing and commissioning services.

Thanks to this engineering approach, our systems are not only safe, but also long-lasting, energy efficient and maintenance-friendly.
