A.W. Schultz has been helping customers with their heat trace design projects for over 20 years. Our experience includes design, controls and supplying materials needed for piping solutions, snow and ice melt applications for pavements and roof, gutter and downspout deicing applications. We also stock popular varieties of heat trace cable and accessory items from Nelson™ heat trace and can ship them quickly out of our warehouse to your job site without delay. Let us provide our knowledge and expertise to your next heat trace project.
Our iTrace division provides highly intelligent custom-built control panels that include several unique features. Power limiting manages the inrush current and staggered start directs the power start-up circuits. All heat trace controllers have NEC required ground fault circuits which integrates ground fault equipment protection and eliminates the need for high cost specialty breakers. They can be designed to provide heating circuit up to 100A @ 600 VAC and up to 100- heat trace circuits in one package.

Monitors the electrical current usage as well as temperature and can alarm you when your heat trace is not working.
Your circuits will be tested on a daily basis and will notify you if faults are detected to initiate preventive maintenance.
Temperature, set point data, alarms, and system status are all visible and adjustable from the outside of the panel door.
Your centralized plant control system communicates with the heat trace panel via Modbus, Profibus, or Allen-Bradley EtherNet/IP.
Choose from 10, 20, 30 or 40 circuit panels with many different options of controls. Each heat trace controller is unique and custom built to meet the specifications of your project. You can even include an option with remote monitoring capabilities.
Our project work in heat trace includes many industries but is not limited to power plants, biodiesel plants, ethanol plants, chemical plants, refineries and processing facilities. Our customers have used our expertise to keep the pipe at their facilities from freezing or to keep fluids maintained at elevated temperatures.
Let A.W. Schultz design your snow melt pavement project and provide the right cable and accessories, helping you find the ideal combination of controllers and sensors to prevent pavements from freezing and re-freezing. We offer durable, long-lasting cable for this application from Nelson™.
Nelson’s roof and gutter deicer cable and accessories help prevent dams that can damage roofs, gutters, and downspouts. Even after normal melting, excess water can refreeze and cause roof damage. The self-regulating heater cable adjusts its power output with temperature, preventing overheating and protecting roof coatings.
If you do not need a complete iTrace control panel, we can provide made to order retrofit subpanels. The CM2 Replacement for Nelson™ CM2 is an economical way to upgrade your existing heat trace controller. With the retirement of Nelson CM2, the parts for these units are no longer available. iTrace can provide a custom subpanel leaving your existing enclosure, conduit and wiring in place. We can also provide a retrofit kit to replace your current CM2 display located on the enclosure door.
Let us help you upgrade your old Nelson CM2 with a new CM2 Replacement. These retrofit options are also available for other manufacturers as well.
