A solar powered heat trace system includes a heat trace system and a photovoltaic panel. The heat trace system is rated for use with alternating current at a specified alternating current voltage with a specified watts per foot of heat output. The photovoltaic panel is capable of converting sunlight into direct current electric power. Direct current is supplied from the photovoltaic panel to the heat trace system at a direct current voltage which is substantially equivalent to the specified alternative current voltage and produces heat within the specified watts per foot heat output for which the heat trace system is rated.
Un système de traçage thermique à énergie solaire comprend un système de traçage thermique et un panneau photovoltaïque. Le système de traçage thermique est conçu pour être alimenté par un courant alternatif à une tension de courant alternatif spécifiée avec une puissance calorifique en watts par pied spécifiée. Le panneau photovoltaïque est en mesure de convertir la lumière du soleil en un courant électrique continu. Le courant continu est fourni par le panneau photovoltaïque au système de traçage thermique à une tension de courant direct qui est essentiellement équivalente à la tension de courant alternatif spécifiée et produit de la chaleur en fonction de la puissance calorifique en watts par pied spécifiée pour laquelle le système de traçage thermique est conçu.
