Precautions for storing tracer wires"},"content":{"rendered":"

Tracer line<\/a>Proper storage is essential to maintain its performance and extend its service life. Here are a few things to keep in mind when storing tracer wire:<\/p>\n

1. Avoid direct sunlight<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tracer wires are generally made of metal and polyethylene materials. Long-term exposure to sunlight will accelerate the aging and cracking of the outer plastic, affecting its service life. Therefore, it should be stored in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight.<\/p>\n

2. Prevent moisture<\/strong><\/p>\n

The metal part of the tracer wire, especially the copper-clad steel or other metal wire core, may oxidize or corrode in a humid environment. The storage environment should be kept dry. Excessive humidity will accelerate the corrosion of the metal and reduce the conductivity and tensile strength of the tracer wire.<\/p>\n

3. Stay away from chemicals<\/strong><\/p>\n

The outer layer of the tracer wire is generally made of polyethylene, which is easily corroded by chemicals. Avoid contact between the tracer wire and corrosive chemicals such as acids and alkalis to avoid damaging its outer layer and affecting its durability and insulation.<\/p>\n
