AHT outdoor
The unique AHT outdoor infrared heating ribbon is a proven heating technology that has been used successfully for decades in a large number of different projects around the world. Applications include roads, cycle paths, bridges, tunnels, runways, logistics centers, driveways and parking lots, train, tram and metro platforms, level crossings, bus stops, ramps, stairs, pedestrian crossings, routes for the visually impaired, roofs and gutters (including de-icing of photovoltaic panels). Also all kinds of sports fields (e.g. football, tennis, padel, beach volleyball). We will gladly advise you on the potential of this technology for your specific projects.

THE BENEFITS OF AHT SNOW MELTING AND ICE PREVENTION SYSTEM:
AHT’s Snow-and-Ice Melting system is ideal for external concrete, asphalt, paving stones, gravel and lawns/turf (sports fields etc). Based on our unique Amorphous Metal Ribbon Technology they have significant advantages over any other type of hydronic or electrical cable-based Snow Melting and Ice Prevention systems.
Benefits are as follows:
Larger contact area with the cold ground or iced surface
Reaches the working temperature faster than other systems
Energy saving
Less costly
Generates more even heat
Extremely simple and easy to install
Perfectly safe from electrical shock hazards and electromagnetic radiation
Reliable and durable
HEATING ELEMENT PERFORMANCE:
AHT heating element is of a fixed wattage. By using different widths of amorphous ribbons and different length of the element itself, one can achieve the required output power per linear meter/foot. Typically the high-end limit for the heating element power is 62 watts per meter. This limit corresponds to more than 5 amps on a single circuit. The heating element can be driven by various power voltage sources, AC or DC: 110-120, 208, 220-240, 400 and 600 Volts, as long as the current limit is met. Low voltage (below 50 volts) usage is also possible. The upper limit working temperature of the heating element is 70°C.
AHT OUTDOOR HEATING RIBBONS MEET ALL STANDARDS
all AHT outdoor heating ribbons are based on a unique design of fully gounded heat-tracing amorphous metal ribbon heating element enclosed in a mechanically strong but flexible enclosure. They meet the IEEE 515.1 standard for underground and outdoor exposed applications. As such the AHT outdoor heating ribbons have been globally approved by Intertek and proudly carry the ETL mark. All other producers of amorphous ribbons are targeting electromagnetic applications using the ribbon as soft magnetic material for various electronic components. The AHT ribbons are more reliable, with higher electrical and corrosion resistance. Their main characteristics are:
thickness: 20-30 mm.
width: 2-100 mm.
corrosion resistance: high (nickel and chrome based)
ductility and flexibility: high
heat transfer area: high
warm-up time to steady state - low
