We are proud to introduce our new line of electric heat tracing electronic thermostats, the Raychem Elexant 3500i product family.
The Elexant 3500i bridges the gap between basic thermostats like our ETS-05 and more advanced controllers like our Elexant 4010i.
The 3500i has five variants:
- Standard
- Alarm
- Communicating
- Current Sensing
- Ground Fault Detecting
Each variant comes with an interchangeable module which will provide customers with the flexibility to select the best solution to meet their needs without over specifying, it also makes installation fast and easy.
What value does the Elexant 3500i bring to customers?
Fast installation with minimal components.
The Elexant 3500i is a power connection and thermostat in one, for up to two heating cables. This strategic configuration reduces installation cost. The Elexant 3500i also comes with quick connect terminals for fast and secure cable connection. Customers can choose between pipe stand enclosures or wall-mounted enclosures which minimizes required components and tools further. The product line is approved to 32A and 277Vac, for longer heating cable lengths, minimizing circuits and components.
Flexible design, reliable performance.
As mentioned above, there are five variants that help match customer needs, from local indication light, to remote communication, to current and ground fault sensing.
Each comes with an interchangeable electronic module for hassle-free upgrades. If a customer currently has the need for one variant, in the future, all they need to do is switch out the module for a different variant to obtain additional capabilities.
The Elexant 3500 is approved in North America for hazardous areas in extreme environments (-55°C to +60°C). The Elexant 3500i also has a hybrid switching relay (SSR + EMR) rated to 250,000 power cycles for superior product life (IEC 60079).
Connected operation, automated monitoring.
The Communicating, Current Sensing and Ground Fault Detecting variants of the Elexant 3500i have wireless configuration via Bluetooth using a mobile device or tablet with our Raychem Elexant Connect App. Customers can connect to their distributed control system (DCS) for remote control and monitoring where they are in full control, anywhere, anytime. Lastly, the Current Sensing and Ground Fault Detecting variants perform an auto-test every 24 hours for early warnings and predictive maintenance.
