FAK-5 Tee Splice Kit – Thermon

Description

The FAK-5 Tee Splice Kit is an accessory used to create a weatherproof and insulated splice where a main tubing bundle divides into two separate branch bundles in a “T” configuration. This kit is essential for distributing the heat trace (steam or electric) and process media from a single supply line to multiple downstream lines while ensuring the entire connection point remains thermally protected and sealed from the environment.

Features

• Function: Provides a watertight, insulated cover for a Tee splice connection point in a tubing bundle run.
• Insulation Integrity: Ensures the insulation is maintained around the T-fittings and connections, preventing heat loss that would lead to cold spots in the line.
• Compatibility: Used to splice and seal both electrically heated (TubeTrace) and pre-insulated (ThermoTube) bundles.
• Application: Ideal for applications where a single main header line needs to split into two distinct branches, such as routing sample lines to separate analyzers or impulse lines to different instruments.
• Components: Typically includes a split outer shell (ABS or similar), glass fiber insulation, aluminum heat barrier tape, and sealants (RTV) to encapsulate the entire transition area.
