Cold or cryogenic storage facilities contain products at temperatures well below freezing, 32°F (0°C). Storage of liquid products are often in either above or below ground vessels. Because of the subfreezing temperatures internal to the vessel, freezing of the soil below and/or around the vessel can occur. This, in turn, can result in heaving of the soil and subsequent damage to the structure of the foundation.
Thermon's constant wattage or SX? self-regulating heating cables have a long history of performance and reliability when used in these applications.
