Application

To insulate valves, pipework, flanges, tanks, exhausts, vessels, pumps and other process equipment, resulting in the reduction of significant heat losses.

Description

Pipe and valve insulation jackets are designed to insulate pipework and valves helping to improve energy efficiency. They are also commonly used to provide insulation against low temperatures and protect personnel from burns by reducing the temperature of the exposed pipework surfaces.


Insulation jackets provide excellent protection on instrumentation transmitters, gauges, valves, flanges and other components where frost protection is required. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, electric trace heating is incorporated to compensate for heat loss and prevent the onset of freezing.


Features and benefits:

  • Fabricated from a wide range of materials depending upon the system temperature and specific service environment.
  • Provides an economical way to insulate components which require routine maintenance and other hard-to-insulate equipment.
  • Start-up times can be reduced by 50% by reducing the time a machine takes to warm up.
  • Quality is improved by reducing the temperature gradient across the barrel as a result of the significant reduction in heat losses. Making material flow more consistent and improving dispersion of additives.
