INSULATION

Introduction

Optional for used insulation depend application and characteristic of materials or equipment. By
major application protected energy lost to outside was so chose application and factor as following
 Classified
 Heat conservation
 Cold conservation
 Personnel conservation
 Frost proofing
 Fire proofing
 Acoustic insulation
 External condensation and icing protection
 Item requiring insulation
 Material
General requirements for thermal insulation (hot and cold) are given in Specific requirements for hot
service and acoustic insulation and cold service insulation
