Assembled heatable media line comprising a media line having at least two heating elements arranged on the exterior thereof, and method for the production thereof

Abstract

An assembled heatable media line having a media line having at least two heating elements arranged on the exterior of the media line and at least one line connector. In order to heat the at least one line connector, only one of the heating elements is arranged at or on said line connector and at least partially surrounds the same. A method for producing a heatable media line comprising the media line, at least one line connector and at least two heating elements is disclosed. The media line is pre-assembled, the heating elements being continuously wound around the media line. The heating elements are fastened or fixed on the media line by at least one fastener. The media line is cut to a first length depending on the desired used, said length corresponding to the desired media line length (IR) plus an allowance length (Iz) which carries the heating element length (IM) required for winding the heating element around the at least one line connector and a transition region between the media line and the line connector, the fastener is removed in the media line section corresponding to the allowance length (Iz), the heating element is wound off from the media line section corresponding to the allowance length (Iz), the media line is cut to the desired media line length (IR) to give a second media line section, one of the heating elements is shortened prior to or after the second cutting step performed on the media line, the second media line section is connected to the at least one line connector, and the heating element that has not been shortened is wound around the at least one line connector.
