Winter weather in Northwestern Europe is notably influenced by a variety of factors, including Arctic Sea ice levels, atmospheric pressure fluctuations over the North Atlantic Ocean—caused by the Icelandic Low and the Azores High—as well as the Gulf Stream. These elements combine to create unpredictable weather conditions, making it vital to prepare for winter sooner rather than later.
That's where BriskHeat comes in. We offer not just a comprehensive Freeze Protection, Maintenance and Energy Efficiency Guide but a range of products expertly designed for the European market.
CE-Certified for European Standards
The CE mark indicates the product you are buying meets European Conformity as may be required by the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA). This means products are tested for safety and evaluated for any hazardous substances. BriskHeat has CE marked products in every category for you to choose from. Some products are approved by UL or CSA as well; other products are designed specifically for use in Europe. Need Frost Protection in a hazardous location? BriskHeat has ATEX rated products as well. Let’s highlight a few that are needed most for winter preparation.
Solutions for Ice and Snow Melting
When winter shows its teeth, BriskHeat's SpeedTraceCE comes to the rescue. This self-regulating cable comes in various lengths—2, 4, 8, and 16 meters—and features a water-resistant seal and a 2-prong Schuko CEE 7/7 plug for effortless plug-and-play operation. For longer requirements, consider our CE-certified SLCBL series.
Emergency De-Icing
For unexpected freezing conditions, BriskHeat offers their Xtremeflex® silicone rubber heating tapes. Most versions are complete with CE certification. Available in multiple lengths and with or without controllers.
Viscosity Control
Many fluids flow significantly slower in cold temperatures. Heaters can be used to reduce viscosity and increase flow rates. There are several types of silicone rubber drum heaters as well as full-coverage cloth heaters for drums and totes that are available as CE marked. Silicone rubber heating blankets can also be placed on exterior surfaces of tanks to melt greases or shortenings.
Condensation Prevention
Exposure to cold temperatures can lead to condensation on warm, moisture-containing surfaces such as pipes, vessels, and hoppers. Our CE-certified silicone blankets with built-in adjustable controls are the ideal solution to prevent freezing and condensation formation. These come in various watt densities to suit your specific needs.
From the northernmost reaches of Norway to the peaks of Mount Olympus in Greece, BriskHeat ensures that you have the freeze protection products you desire, all while complying with European standards.
Your Key Takeaway:
Don't leave your winter preparations to the last minute. With BriskHeat's CE-certified, European-specific freeze protection solutions, you can face the season head-on, secure in the knowledge that you are prepared for whatever winter may bring.
