Description

A range of one piece insulation jackets having velcro fastenings,

for fitting to flanged S3 and S13 separators.

TI-P023-37 gives details of a payback calculator based on the

energy saving to be made by fitting an insulation jacket.

Available types

Installation

IJ-S3 and IJ-S13

for insulating DN40 to DN200,

S3 and S13 separators

Once the separator has been installed, the insulation jacket can be

fitted as follows:

IJ-S3 and IJ-S13

Place the jacket onto the top of the separator, wrap around and

secure jacket into position by using the velcro flap. The label should

be on top and the large flap on the underside of the separator to

prevent the ingress of water. The jacket shall be positioned so that

the drain connection passes through the circular opening. Finally,

pull and tie the drawcords to minimise any gaps that would allow air

to flow through or allow ingress of water.

Both the inner/outer face and insulation are made with a bonded

aluminium foil. At a temperature of 120°C the adhesive bonding the

aluminium will start to degrade and delamination of the foil will occur

at 150°C to 170°C.

Removal

Before removing the jacket, check if the separator is in service. If it is

then the metal surface will be hot enough to burn and suitable

protective clothing (e.g. gloves) should be worn.

Removal is the reverse procedure to the above.

Handling

When the jacket is new the insulation material is fully enclosed

within the inner and outer face and retained by the stitching. In this

condition for handling no special protective clothing is required.

However, if the inner and outer face becomes unstitched or

damaged, so as to expose the insulation material then suitable

protective clothing (e.g. gloves, safety glasses, face mask and

overalls) should be worn when handling.

Disposal

This product is not recyclable and is non-combustible. For disposal

purposes consider the product to be mineral fibre and dispose of in

accordance with local regulations.
