Cross Electrical is a company based in the East Midlands
that specialises in electrical trace heating systems that incorporate a thermal
insulation system. The company was established in 1971 to service the heavy
fuel oil industry, and since then it has become one of the market leaders in
this type of engineering.
Our engineers are all fully qualified with lots of
experience in installing these systems. We also employ service and repair
technicians who are given thorough training and provided with test and fault
location equipment.
Although we are based in the East Midlands, our engineers
provide a service anywhere across the country, as well as internationally, for
all applications within industry and commerce.
Cross Electrical have expertise in bitumen trace heating systems and our
service includes the processing of Bitumen in its liquid state. When
dealing with bitumen we tend to install mineral cables because the surface
temperatures of these cables can bear the high temperatures of bitumen which
ranges from 150°C to over 200°C.
We sell snow- and ice-melting systems |
Another product that we specialise in is snow and ice melting
systems. Snow can be a huge inconvenience for people who need to walk to work,
or particularly in areas around stairs where a slippery floor can cause
accidents. Our systems can be situated directly under asphalt, embedded in
concrete, or integrated into stairways. They are temperature-controlled so that
ice or snow on top of them is immediately melted. Likewise, our roof gutter
heating systems are implemented to prevent icicles forming and potentially
harming people, downpipes from bursting, and water penetrating through to
buildings.
Frost Protection Systems limit damage |
Our frost protection system is designed with the aim of
preventing frozen pipes from forming and cracking, which in turn creates
long-term damage to buildings. The XEL range of Self-Regulating Heating Cables
can be used on plastic or metal pipes. They cannot overheat because they are
self-regulating but they are also good for the environment because they only
heat up when they need to in order to prevent freezing.
If you have any questions about our company or what we do
then please feel free to contact us, we look forward to hearing from you.
