Electric Resistance Monitoring provides easy to monitor leak detection in foam insulated piping systems. The ERM system is simply a bare copper wire embedded in the insulating foam. Since the foam is not a conductor of electricity, there will be very high resistance between the wire and the metal pipe (reading 100,000+ Ohms). If the foam becomes wet, the water will complete the circuit and the resistance will drop to values approaching zero.
Various types of heat tracing methods are available, including standard heat trace cable ready as well as skin effect systems for longer lines. Systems are suitable for temperature maintenance and freeze protection in the transport of process fluids, heating water, and heavy petroleum products.
