Schedule 80 PVC conduits. This line of PVC Heating Blankets will
heat and soften PVC conduits from OD sizes of 1/2" to 4".
Set Up and Operation
1. Find a flat, dry surface. Ensure you have a well-ventilated area
away from any flammable material for your PVC Heating Blanket
set up.
2. Ensure your power supply is properly rated for the PVC Heating
Blanket being used.
3. If using an extension cord, ensure it is a 14-16 AWG cord to
prevent cord from overheating.
4. Check your PVC Heating Blanket for any tears, cuts, burns,
exposed wires, or frayed cords. If any of these conditions are
present, DO NOT USE.
5. Place the PVC Heating Blanket under the PVC conduit and
position to where the bend is to be made. (FIGURE 1)
