Southwire PVCB-02 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What power does the Southwire PVCB-02 PVC heater need on the jobsite?
It runs on 120V, 15A, so a standard jobsite receptacle or a 15A generator circuit will carry it. The unit is grounded, so keep it on a proper grounded outlet and don't defeat the ground pin on an extension cord.
2) Can the PVCB-02 PVC heater box be used outdoors in the rain?
No. The PVCB-02 is not rated for wet location use and is not UV resistant, so keep it under cover and out of standing water or prolonged sun. For outdoor work, set it up in a trailer, under a canopy, or inside the building and carry heated lengths to the trench.
3) How much space does a Southwire PVCB-02 PVC heater take up in a van or gang box?
The heater measures 32 x 11 x 10 inches and weighs 20 pounds, so it fits across the bed of most service vans and one person can carry it from the van to the work area without help.
4) Does the PVCB-02 heater box use bulbs or heating lamps I'll have to replace?
No bulbs are used in this heater box. It heats with infrared energy directed by chrome plated reflectors, so there is no lamp to source or stock as a consumable.
5) How do I know the right heating time and bend radius when using the PVCB-02?
The bending reference is printed right on the unit: the label includes NEC bending tables, so the crew can check radius and conduit size at the box instead of digging out a code book. A red indicator light shows when the heater is energized, which keeps someone from leaving it on between bends.
6) Will the PVCB-02 heater box hold up in a trailer or shop that sees moisture and abuse?
The housing is steel with a black powder coat finish for corrosion resistance, which is what holds up to being slid in and out of a trailer daily. It is not flame retardant, so don't store it against combustibles or use it near solvents and rags.
7) Does the Southwire PVCB-02 PVC heater run on batteries?
No batteries are involved. It is a corded 120V, 15A unit, so plan on a receptacle or generator at the bending location rather than cordless operation.
