Flex Series
NGC-30/NGC-40 System Panels and Skids
The Raychem FLEX Series of NGC-30 and NGC-40 heat tracing control and monitoring systems are designed to optimize panel configurations and meet customer project needs by reducing production lead times and simplifying design options. The FLEX Series takes advantage of standard components including Hazardous area C1Z2 circuit breakers, Type 4X enclosures, hazardous rated transformers, and steel frames for use in hazardous and non-hazardous areas. The FLEX series panels and skids make the design and procurement process simple and easy.
FEATURES
- Standardized designs and components reduce lead times.
- Uses internal encapsulated breakers for hazardous applications, eliminating the requirement for separate explosion proof panelboards or Z-Purge Systems.
- Panel can be pre-wired to a transformer and skid mounted, drastically reducing construction time in the field.
- Panels of up to 20 circuits can also be wall mounted, minimizing installed footprint.
ELECTRIC HEAT TRACING CONTROL SYSTEM
The FLEX series EHT panels and skids incorporate either the NGC-30 or NGC-40 control and monitoring systems to provide the highest reliability, performance, and safety in heat tracing control applications. Both electronic multi-point systems provide energy-efficient control modes such as PASC (Proportional Ambient Sensing Control), advanced monitoring and diagnostic capabilities, state-of-the-art touch screen interfaces to facilitate easy programming, and value-added accessories to provide significant cost savings to a project. Both the User Interface Terminal (NGC-30) and the Touch1500 (NGC-40) provide the ability to monitor and configure the systems either locally or remotely.
