Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A heatable medium pipe having at least one pipe connector and heating element, wherein the heating element has a few wires, in particular two wires, and said wires extend continuously along the medium pipe and along the at least one pipe connector. In a method for producing such a heatable medium pipe, the heating element is continuously wound around a tubular medium pipe and the heating element is pre-assembled on the medium pipe in that the heating element is fastened or fixed by at least one fastening element, the medium pipe is cut to a first length for the particular application, the length corresponding to the desired medium pipe length (l R ) plus the heating element length (l H ) required for wrapping around the at least one pipe connector and the transition area the fastening element is removed in the region outside the desired medium pipe length (l R ), the heating element is unwrapped from the medium pipe section cut from the first length, the medium pipe is cut to the desired medium pipe length (l R ) to form a second medium pipe section, the medium pipe section is connected to the at least one pipe connector as the medium pipe, and the heating element is at least wrapped around the at least one pipe connector.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A heatable medium pipe comprising: at least one pipe connector and a heating element, wherein the heating element comprises a few wires or wire strands, wherein said wires or wire strands extend continuously both along the medium pipe and along the at least one pipe connector, wherein the medium pipe is a pre-assembled medium pipe equipped with a few wires or wire strands, wherein the wires or wire strands are fastened on the medium pipe with at least one fa…
