Industrial insulation: pipelines

Thermal insulation of industrial pipelines

One of the important aspects of modern energy saving is thermal insulation of pipes (pipeline systems). Reduction of piping systems thermal loss is carried out using various thermal insulation materials. Their isolation is necessary both in small private houses and in large enterprises. Pipe insulation initially included in the construction project estimate will significantly reduce operating costs and further repairing of the networks

Depending on the facility purpose, pipeline insulation retains (maintains) a high temperature of the coolant in the pipes, protects the system from freezing of liquid, the formation of condensate and, as a result, from metal corrosion. It also protects the surface of the pipes from chemical and bacterial effects and extends their service life.

Thermal insulation materials are used for:

• pipeline systems of cold and hot water supply;
• pipeline heating systems;
• pipeline systems for waste disposal;
• pipes of various technical equipment, including steam lines;
• pipes for freezing systems and ventilation systems.

Modern high-quality thermal insulation of pipes has certain requirements for thermal insulation materials, depending on the type, features and operating conditions of a particular pipeline. The materials themselves should have low thermal conductivity, high fire resistance, have a low percentage of moisture absorption, be easy to install and do not contain toxic components. For example, ceramic fiber mats are excellent for steam lines insulation.

Properly made pipe insulation will significantly reduce energy losses, save pipes from damage and reduce financial costs.

Our company has extensive experience in thermal insulation of pipelines and we can offer our services, as well as supply thermal insulation materials and, of course, advise and answer all questions. See photos of the performed work and their description in "Projects".
